Rubio Not Sure He’ll Stay In Office For Full Senate Term If Re-Elected

[DonViejo]

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) hedged his bets on what his political future may hold in a Tuesday interview with CNN, saying he just wasn’t sure if he would be able to stay in office for a full six-year Senate term if re-elected.

“No one can make that commitment because you don’t know what the future’s gonna hold in your life personally or politically,” Rubio said.

While this comment suggested that the former 2016 presidential candidate might be open to another run for the White House, Rubio said he was “prepared” for his political career to come to an end in the Senate.

“I can commit to you this, and that is that if I am running to be a U.S. senator, I am fully prepared to allow the U.S. Senate to be the last political office I ever hold,” he said.

1. The FL democratic party and Murphy need to stress this hard.

He's not running for a Senate seat, he's running for a launching pad from which to launch his 2020 presidential campaign.

He could fulfill that already. Didn't he say he hated the senate?
