Marco Rubio takes lead in Sheldon Adelson primary
By ALEX ISENSTADT
Before Iowa and New Hampshire, GOP candidates are competing in the Sheldon Adelson primary, and some will travel to his posh Venetian hotel in Las Vegas this weekend in hopes of winning it. But one candidate Marco Rubio has emerged as the clear front-runner, according to nearly a half-dozen sources close to the multibillionaire casino mogul.
In recent weeks, Adelson, who spent $100 million on the 2012 campaign and could easily match that figure in 2016, has told friends that he views the Florida senator, whose hawkish defense views and unwavering support for Israel align with his own, as a fresh face who is the future of the Republican Party. He has also said that Rubios Cuban heritage and youth would give the party a strong opportunity to expand its brand and win the White House.

I wonder how much money Adelson is going to throw his way.
Sugar Daddy!
