Marco Rubio profite du retrait de Scott Walker

Je continue de croire que les principaux candidats sérieux pour la présidentielle du côté des républicains sont Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio et John Kasich. On peut garder Chris Christie et Caly Fiorina en réserve. Lorsqu'on analyse les retombées de l'abandon de Scott Walker, on constate que ses partisans trouveront de quoi se satisfaire dans le discours de Marco Rubio. ce dernier est un des rares candidats à être en mesure de faire le pont entre les éléments plus conservateurs et les modérées au sein de sa formation politique, un exploit. Y parviendra-t-il?

 "After Walker’s sudden exit from the race on Monday, several campaigns tried to quickly snatch up the Wisconsin governor’s staff and supporters. But the spotlight quickly found Rubio, who was fresh off another widely praised debate performance and is enjoying a bump in the polls.

“He was strong in the debate and appeals to much of the base that Walker was focused on,” a New Hampshire Republican said. “He's also a natural for picking off Walker's donor base.”

Democrats in New Hampshire agreed — with 52 percent naming Rubio as the winner. “Rubio benefits, in the sense that a cleaner, smaller field gives him more of a chance to shine. His strategy has long been to be in the conversation when it got serious, and the field got smaller. He is the most talented candidate running, and, it appears, a very disciplined candidate, as well. As the field thins out, these strengths will become more evident.”
