Don't worry if Rubio finishes second now that Cruz is firing staffers he will claim another victory.

He should get the 'women' vote. The wives and girlfriends, that is. lol

I lived in Nevada for 15 years. Gambling is more of a problem than prostitution in Nevadan households. Most of their customers are tourists anyway.

Oh please! He was not using an insult because he didn't have an answer to an argument - those two were joking around - something you will find now and again on CD.

Unfortunately, he's also right that many prefer to hurl insults rather than answer a question or debate a statement - all because they don't have an answer.

He should have waited until after Nevada.

Marco Rubio in Nevada: 'I'm anti-prostitution' - CNNPolitics.com
Prostitution is not legal throughout the state. In fact it isn't legal in most of the larger counties. I really do not see this as a huge issue. Now, will he do well in NV, that might be another story, but make sure when you post something you do have the facts and your info comes from reliable sources if you want people to pay attention.

Strictly regulated brothels operate legally in isolated rural areas, away from the majority of Nevada's population. Prostitution is illegal in the following counties: Clark, (Las Vegas) Washoe (Reno) Douglas and Lincoln Counties. Prostitution is also illegal in Nevada's capital (Carson City). The rest of Nevada's counties are permitted by state law to license brothels, only 8 counties have done so. As of now, there are 19 operating brothels in Nevada.

I thought that this was what Republicans were supposed to do? You know, small government, not force their personal opinions on others, and let the states make their own rules?

Of course, it would be nice if he applied that same standard to some other issues....

Meaning that you just googled it and found out the answer .

It's not a big issue. Prostitution only brings in a fraction of income in counties that Rubio likely wasn't going to win anyway. His strength is in the metro areas and not the rural ones.

No, today is rather important. It will prove is Trump really does have a ceiling and if Rubio really did get all of Jeb Bushes supporters. If things remain static or Trump pulls away then it's pretty much a done deal. He won't have the momentum to get there.
