Have you noticed how Marco Rubio operates under the radar so that he has little that will stick
to him in the 2016 election with Jeb Bush? You can bet on that ticket being quietly formed. Tin foil hats available.

1. He is bound to be on the 2012 ticket.
VP: Rubio, Pawlenty or Martinez.

2. He will be Romney's VP choice this year. He'll be the perennial VP choice from now on.

Rubio = GOP's Hispanic Strategy

3. I totally agree.
I don't see Romney making it thru the Primaries though. I think Ron Paul is going to seriously turn heads next year but the establishment will take him out in the Primaries as well. Perry could run away with it.

4. The Batistano party rises again.

Of course, we remember what the reaction to Batista was ...

6. You're saying Bush-Rubio?
Aren't they both Floridians?
They can't run together for Pres/Veep

7. Guess that kills my theory, but rethugs have been known to change established rules

8. That didn't make any difference to Bush/Cheney.
Cheney was living in Texas, and everyone knew it. They both lived in Texas. They just got away with doing whatever they pleased, before, during and after the "election."

9. Absolutely NOT true
although this is an often misunderstood fallacy. See Snopes:
http://www.snopes.com/history/american/vicepresident.asp
And BTW, I've said from the start that it would be Jeb/Rubio ticket in 2016, so I agree Marco is being groomed, big time. Jeb will suddenly become a Texan or something, so as to garner a second state, 'favorite son' factor.
