They say story and sources are legit and i think it makes sense.

Publicly, the campaign is maintaining they are still a contender in this race, touting a Sunday win in Puerto Rico's primary that delivered Rubio 23 delegates. But privately, the campaign is having a debate about whether he should remain in the mix -- even for his home state of Florida's primary.
"He doesn't want to get killed in his home state," one source familiar with the discussions said, noting "a poor showing would be a risk and hurt his political future."
He should. If he gets out now, hes still viable in 2020 or 2024. But he was only down 8 in a recent poll so the poison juice is just too tempting and hes going to keep on drinking it.
He'll get killed in Florida and that would really look bad on him.
He is young and should think of his future prospects.
Both he and Crist take Floridians for fools. Crist already lost his bet, let's see about Rubio.
To be sure, Rubio took a huge risk, using his Senate victory as a stepping stone to run for the presidency after less than even one term as senator.
There is still a small chance he could pull it off, but when most likely he looses his presidential bid, he may try to run for governor in 2018, and he would lose that too, resoundingly, if he even makes it past the gubernatorial primaries.
I wouldn't be surprised at all if one day he switches over to the democrats.
There's little difference anyway, ask Charlie whom Rubio seems to emulate.
A much more solid strategy would have been to serve as senator at least two or three terms. But that would have taken patience and at least a little real hard work.
As it stands, his senate victory is proving to be a fluke.
First-term senator to president is very rare, only three I believe, Harding, Kennedy, Obama, so once every 40 years or so, and I do not expect it to become a trend.
What the hell are these RINOs thinking?
Some people talk about "true republican", and whatever the hell that even means it appears that Hillary fits the definition as well as any of these RINOs.
If he got out before Michigan he could have helped Cruz beat Trump. Voting has started there or if it will in the next hour or so, then too late now.
Should he exit before Florida he'll need a good excuse to satisfy the media.
If he exits before Thursday's debate in Florida he misses more chances to attack Trump but why go to a Florida debate if you will exit after the debate but before March 15?
Exit before the debate and he gives Cruz the full stage to attack Trump.
To stay around just for the debate will not sit well with Trump and the media.
Politicians don't worry about their political future. The system is fixed and after this election it will be even more fixed so a grass roots people's choice candidate won't have near of a chance.
They can be as goofy and corrupt as they want, the system is fixed in their favor.
I mean what is true is that if he loses Florida, he's done for. Mathematically it's not possible for him to win, but I think he wants to wait until Florida and likewise Ohio for Kasich. Wouldn't be shocked if it's a two man race by the end of the month.
