In response to "If you're seeing that in Texas, I'm glad, but I am not seeing it here. " by David

becuase he's seen as a cultural (or racial) outsider, or because he's seen as being too tied to the political establishment?

wasn't he a tea-party darling when he got elected?

Responses:

He is popular where he is but the rest of the south isn't like Florida (or Texas). - David Feb 19, 11:06 5
- I think Rubio would do well in Georgia - Strongbad Feb 19, 11:10 3
  - He might but it's the same situation I said of Romney. He'll have to get the nomination without carrying most of the south. - David Feb 19, 11:14 2
    - Newt won GA. I don't remember the others. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 19, 11:15 1
      - Mitt won NC, VA, AR, TX, FL, of which only VA and FL were competitive (Romney was already considered to be the likely nominee by the end of April) -- nm - znufrii Feb 19, 11:20
- gotcha. -- nm - znufrii Feb 19, 11:08
He still is. -- nm - Strongbad Feb 19, 10:55 4
- (darling may be a strong word, but he still supports a lot of the same issues of theirs) -- nm - Strongbad Feb 19, 10:56 3
  - but do *they* still support him? - znufrii Feb 19, 10:59 2
    - (My opinion) - Strongbad Feb 19, 11:18 1
      - thanks. -- nm - znufrii Feb 19, 11:26
