How to Succeed in Politics Without Really Succeeding
Poor Marquito. Every time he turns around, Chris Christie is popping up like an overfed, short-haired, leaping gnome to absolutely crush him. The Outlaw Jersey Whale first eviscerated Marco Rubio in a debate-stage murder-suicide, broadcast live on the electrical teevee. Then, when the RU-B0 droid finally looked like he might become a real boy, when he was finally poised to be poised to do something, Christie joined the Prince of Darkness Orange and sucked all the oxygen out of Mark’s Mojo.
Now, post SuperMinnesota, he’s third in delegates, third in wins, and has finished third in most states. His only hope is to convince the media, party elders, money people and the RNC that he can ride this Win-Lose-or-Draw Primary to the Cleveland convention conclusion, and a broke, broken, brokered candidacy.

Rubio is a believer in the trickle down nomination theory… give trump more and more and more and it’ll eventually overflow in golden showers of delegates for him.
1Well… that means he’ll probably come in third in the general election. Third’s not bad. You get a nice ribbon. Just like at the county fair, right?
2Good point, JAK: Rubio is the candidate from the “Everybody Gets a Trophy” Generation.
3Let’s remember that this is the party which does not let facts get in the way, so if Rubio says third is first, by god he’s the winner. Trouble is, all of the RKlan candidates believe that up is down so good luck with that.
4If the rumors are true that the Republican elders are planning on something to ensure Trump doesn’t get the nomination, Rubio may well come in first as the best puppet for the Republican party establishment.
5Primo, I love you:
“overfed, short-haired, leaping gnome”
“debate-stage murder-suicide, broadcast”
6Brian … you sure you want to use the “golden shower” reference? However, it would seem Rubio is definitely getting a little pissed on, if not, off!! Trump seems to think that all of his “followers” will follow him to wherever he goes rather then “stream” over to Rubio’s side of the tent!!
They are all pathetic loooooosers!!
7I must hurry and catch up with the others for I am their leader.
8Here’s how it shakes out if you consider it essentially a two-man race:
Rubio triumphantly comes in second. Trump comes in next to last.
9Marcia, Brian probably did mean “golden showers.” That’s how trickle-down economics has always worked.
10Yes, Rhea … I know … but the term just struck me as odd … as do all things in reference to the RWNJs.
11Marion: Primo stole the first line (and changed it a little) from the song “Spill the Wine” by Eric Burdon and War.
And he loves you back!
12LynnN, love your wit and the summary of the 2 man race outcome “…triumphantly second and… next to last.”
13If at first you don’t succeed,wait a while and suck the seed later. See how easy that was to solve?
14Rubio’s main backer is vulture capitalist Paul Singer who just recently raped Argentina for over 4 billion bucks to cover his 60 million dollar original investment. Singer is way ahead of the koch bros in contributions,so the rumour says.

16So now we know you spin up a little Eric Burdon to get the creative juices going, eh?
It’s my life and I’ll do what I want
It’s my mind and I’ll think what I want
But I listen to whatever Pandora spins 😉
17epo, Paul Singer is the lowest form of life. Just ask his ex-wife, who was Greg Palast’s informant.
