If it's not Rubio, Cruz, or maybe Carson, no one would give a shit and it wouldn't be hyped.
If its anyone else, the media coverage may well improve their ratings a bit.

People would be hyped about Trump.
Based on publicly available records, the lobbyist Amber Stoner’s name appeared on Rubio’s credit card statements at least 10 times in 2007, his first year as House speaker:
2007-02-14 Tallahasee Delta (Unknown/Atlanta/Tallahasee)
2007-02-28 Tallahasee Delta (Miami/Tallahasee)
2007-05-11 Columbia, SC USAirways (Columbia/Charlotte/Tallahasse)
2007-05-15 Atlanta Delta (Tallahasee/Atlanta/Philadelphia)
2007-05-20 Tallahasee Delta (Unused – credit)
2007-05-27 N/A Delta (Tallahasee/Orlando)
2007-05-27 Tallahasee Continental (Tallahasee/Tampa)
2007-05-27 Tallahasee Delta (Orlando/Tallahasee)
2007-05-29 Tallahasee Continental (Tallahasee/Tampa)
2007-07-12 Tallahasee USAirways
So who is Amber Stoner? There is an Amber Stoner listed in the Florida Lobbyist Directory. If this is the same Amber Stoner whose travel Rubio paid for, she is a lobbyist for HCA Healthcare, based in Tallahassee.
He's also enjoyed a cozy relationship with state Rep. Esteban Bovo, who's a lobbyist by day, and Bovo's wife, also a lobbyist, who ended up on a couple of air trips with Rubio that were charged to that GOP credit card. Another young health care lobbyist, Amber Stoner, also shows up as a recipient of 10 paid flights with Rubio on his Republican Amex.
Those dates and places seem way too real to be just made up.That article is from a no-name site and its source is a comedy site.
I'm also seeing rumors that he bought her a house. This goes way back to 2010 though.
its not like scandal has an expiration date man
He was running for Senate in 2010. Wouldn't his opponent want to capitalize on that?
rumors have been circulating about rubio since he was up against crist. you would think if there was anything there then Crist would have used it
but hey, Edwards managed to hide a kid
Mother Jones does not conclude that he's having an affair with her. The implication is that he hangs out with lobbyists a lot.
opposition research isn't cheap. it's possible his opponent simply didn't have the funds or resources to dig up enough credible info to stick.
I know a dude that does opposition research for a living. He's willing to say all KINDS of shit off the record that would never make it into a campaign.
presidential election though? all bets are off. There's enough money flying around in those to bury just about anyone. And if they can't find something, fuck it they'll make it up.

Local politics is different than national. Rubio was under the tutelage of the most powerful office in state: Jeb's.He was running for Senate in 2010. Wouldn't his opponent want to capitalize on that?

I remember the rumor about Bill Clinton, where he took regular flights on the lolita bang plane. But nothing seemed to come of it, unfortunately. Could have been Chafee's opening.
that was my favorite "news" story ever linked to poligaf. When i read the link title "Rumor: Bill Clinton liked to fly on the lolita express" i completely lost my shit
You might want to throw in some jokes lest you meet the same fate as KingKitty.I'm glad you made the Republican Primary Debate Star Wars themed Makai. Now I can keep mine low key.

I'm going with an SNL theme since it's Saturday and live. I'll also be in the audience!You might want to throw in some jokes lest you meet the same fate as KingKitty.
You really should have went with the original draft for the OP. I don't know why you took everything out.

kingkitty, Bernie Sanders just lost the nomination, and I hate Hillary with every fiber of my being. What should I do?
Such is life, but I do blame Crab for no particular reason.
I actually liked kingkitty's thread the best. All his jokes made me lol. Feels like we have similar senses of humor
This part particularly spoke to me:
I'm not a fan of SNL actually, but it works and I figured I should do a little more than you did.SNL has jokes? /joke
I loved this one.kingkitty's thread is the first OT I've seen to generate backlash.

"Breaking news" in general is so overused. CNN might be the worst culprit.CNN Breaking News: Trump about to speak in Las Vegas
lol
Guy has media licking out of his fingers.
Will do, but I can't promise it will be funny.be sure to include a sandwich joke
lol. Even that had a better response.
So apparently there's a group made up of families whose family members were "killed by illegal immigrants", and Trump just trotted those families on stage.

It's 2015 and minimalism is in.well, at least I have a better avatar than you Makai. At least I have that.
