"LOSERS"

 11/4/15 The News-Dispatch & 11/5/15 The Herald-Argus

Republican candidates for President Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush, longtime friends and political allies, have suddenly turned on eachother in the GOP primary, in attempts to pull out of the single digits towards greater support from the "establishment wing" of the party. While Rubio's efforts have tripled his support in New Hampshire recently, I am skeptical he will keep the momentum, as frontrunners Donald Trump and Ben Carson seem to have a commanding lead as of late. Plus many in the Republican base seem to be unwavering in their fears of illegal immigration, among other things, and seem to be looking for the type of political red meat that Rubio and Bush probably aren't able to deliver to primary voters. The irony is they would probably have a greater chance of winning a general election.
