Rubio quits Senate
Or as one Florida daily newspaper put it, "...It's go to the White House or go home."
The Washington Post broke the story this morning:Marco Rubio is a U.S. senator. And he just cant stand it anymore.
I dont know that hate is the right word, Rubio said in an interview. Im frustrated.
This year, as Rubio runs for president, he has cast the Senate the very place that cemented him as a national politician as a place hes given up on, after less than one term. Its too slow. Too rule-bound. So Rubio, 44, has decided not to run for his seat again. Its the White House or bust.
Stay tuned. Film at eleven.
