Rubio ain't running, the birthers scared him off!

MARCO RUBIO: "No, I'm not going to be on a ticket in 2012."

DAVID GREGORY: "Under no circumstances?"

RUBIO: "Under no circumstances."

Not many, I have been there many many times and never ran into any Latinos with a Mexican origins but ran into a lot of them with Cuban connections, give us the numbers if ya got em. Anyway, he is not running and I cannot see him ever getting the GOP nomination down the road and his chances of getting large numbers of Latino voters nationally are not high because as I said he is a Republican for starters and he is not a Latino that most Latinos would identify with since his origins are not what most of them share. Believe what you want, he is not running so it is all speculation.
