Too little... too late. The Repugs should have rallied much sooner. The Great Schism is upon them.
To the victor belong the spoils.
Good bye Rubio, Tuesday. (Scott Pelley, CBS News)

I don't think there is one person running who deserves it. Not one of them by virtue of personality, or record.

He's the least of the remaining evils.
I didn't agree with what he said about President Obama in this clip, although I note that the tenor of those comments was critical but not hateful.
I found much of what he said to be very presidential; if I were a Republican he'd be my choice - but I agree with RayThom, this is too late, they ALL should have called him out months ago.

Yes, because he replied to the thread when the title was thus.

8:20 p.m.
Republican Marco Rubio is ending his campaign for the Republican nomination for president after a humiliating loss in his home state of Florida.
Rubio told a crowd in Miami Tuesday that he knows that voters are angry and that there is a hunger for new faces and voices in government.
Rubio's decision was prompted by losses in all but three of the presidential nomination contests but Florida's winner-take-all primary proved the most devastating. Only six years earlier, he was a tea party favorite who crushed the GOP's "establishment" candidate to win a seat in the U.S. Senate.
But the political tables turned on the Florida senator as a 2016 presidential candidate who was lambasted as mainstream in a year when voters cried out for an outsider.

Well, you gotta' hand it to good ol' Marco. He never gave up on the yellow brick road until just hours ago. The win was always just one primary or caucus away. Clicking his heels three times on the Rubio slippers and repeating the phrase, "There's no place like home state," has finally failed him.
Who knows, maybe the Wizard will pull a Dr. Frankenstein move shocking new life into his cold, bloated corpse in Cleveland on July 18th.
"It's alive! In the name of God, now I know what it feels like to be God!"

Another reasonable and acceptable Republican candidate bites the dust.
Thank goodness Kasich won Ohio and is committed to staying in the race; here's hoping something comes up between now and the convention to tank Drumpf's campaign.

Don't worry, Mr Sponge. Trump is going to put a wall up there too just in case the Mexicans try to sneak in from the north.
