True test of fallout will be 2016 Repub candidate reactions to Romney debacle

[smorkingapple]

They have to realize that any co-signing of his move will be look bad and be remembered in 4 years. Rubio already struck the right tone but no one else has really been asked yet about their reaction to the attacks or Romney's handling to them. If they all go in the opposite direction you know he's out on a limb with nowhere to go. I also imagine you will not see these guys as surrogates defending him on this anywhere over the next week and change.

5. I disagree.....

True test of fallout will be the American Voters.

Most Republicans are wrong period....doesn't matter if they "play" like they are sensible once they smell
stupendous failure!

7. Fair point

I really meant true test of initial fallout and how this might play in terms of Republicans running to his defense. So far only the crazies are onboard.

6. ps Rubio is very tied to David Rivera who is about to go down for fraud

where he funded a Democratic candidate in a primary .. very dirty stuff ... he owns a home with rubio
