The party's odd coalition of big business and resentful, old, impressionable whites may be coming to an end. It's about time.
You're making this too complicated. Everybody has an issue, but the Chamber Of Commerce's agenda doesn't fit with most Righty's desires.

I've supported Rubio, but if one of these top two keep winning, I'm casting my vote for which ever one of them is in the lead.
