Drumpf's thingy may be tiny, but his rallies are a heck of a lot bigger than Rubio's

Marco Rubio is in a bind. He's down in the polls in his home state against Donald Trump, and if he doesn't win Florida, he could be finished....

The crowd inside the Tampa Convention Center was small, but energetic, and it's that energy that Rubio says is going to push him over the edge to win his home state....

Rubio is down in the polls, had a late start opening campaign offices in Florida, and is turning out a few hundred to his Tampa rally compared to Trump's nearly 11,000 at his Tampa stop.

“If crowd size was indicative of (Trump’s) support, he'd be blowing everyone away everywhere. He's now losing states as you've seen,” Rubio said.
