Rubio Craters

Chris Christie is pretty odious most of the time, but he's learned some useful skills, which he uses to simply crush the argument that Marco Rubio should be elected President.



Republican David Frum:

The normal reason to adhere to talking points is determination to advance a controlled message - and to avoid an unhelpful quotation. By contrast, Rubio’s 4x repeat was not an act of excessive message discipline. It was a display of panic at a moment of uncertainty. Faced with a genuinely new situation, Rubio could not figure out what to do ... and so stumbled into doing precisely the wrong thing. The big question about Rubio is: can this untested novice cope with the demands of the presidency? Voters have pitifully little information about him. In this way, Rubio is NOT like Obama at all.
