Cruz, cruz, cruz, cruz tonight this campaign enters a new phase. We began with 17 republican candidates, through the first four states the race narrowed considerably. Tonight was another Decision Point and the voters have spoken. We want to get some insight now from our political power panel in studio. Joined by political analyst martin mills and Republican Former republican congressman ric keller. Rick i want to start with you. I heard donald trump earlier tonight say this was a very bad night for marco rubio. How bad of a night was it . Hasnt won a single state even so far. Is that enough for him to drop out of the race and throw support behind ted cruz . It was an awesome night for donald trump no question about that. But good enough night to survive as one of the three tickets that gets punched to florida. He will still be around until we hit florida on march 15ing that will be the tell all day for him. We have a mic problem with you. Go quickly over to mark. Trump continues to be unstoppable of course not win does he have to soften up on his approach hes still hitting rubio so hard right now. His approach is out of trumps character anyway. Its not going to hatch i would like to go back to the rubio. I think rubio sets up an absolutely mustwin situation. He is rubio for 16 so far. He has to win florida its an absolute mustwin where its going to be ruby over for his campaign. He has to win florida and right now the polls are showing him a little behind but thats an absolute must win if hes going to cruzs path tonight was through the south. Was the southern primaries. Cruz had to do as well as southern primaries like sherman marching through the south. Cruz had to win convincingly in the southern primaries. He only won his home state of texas he didnt get 50. He only won oklahoma. It may not be enough for him to actually have a path to nomination. Guys were going to pause just briefly we have some microphones that are rubbing right here and rubbing may be racing but it aint good for political coverage. Well step aside for a moment get that Technical Glitch worked out. Coming up on fox 35 news tonight at 10 00 a new battle against standardized testing.

Gentlemen, ric let me ask you about the democratic side. We knew hillary was going to sweep through the south and she did. 80 in alabama. But Bernie Sanders did make a move into i dont think he has she owns the south and minority vote i think its pretty much over for bern. Did he a good job i dont think he will drop out. But statistically i think its over for him. How long does he stay in . I dont know how long. It aint going to happen for him. I want to ask you this mark, we heard trump talk at length at his press conference about how the common sense conservative. Your head. Very optimistic now. He said in his speech this is all about optimism. Hes now the optimistic candidate. Is he cutting more moderate tone, finally . No, i think hes looking ahead. I think hes looking ahead to the general. Hes trying to solidify his support, which is good if hes looking ahead to the general and trying to portray himself as an optimistic antihillary candidate its good in the primary. Because it it reminds that is hes the candidate to go against hillary. If you heard him tonight hes mr. Optimism hes not mr. Negative until he takes shots at cruz and rubio which he did a lot of shots against rubio. And rubio opened a lot of shots of his own right off the top. Ric, hillary is already focusing on donald trump and donald trump is already focusing on are we basically beyond the primaries at this point . Those two are already moving into the gentlemen. I think well know who the president is going to be at least in terms of the march 15th. Florida matters a heck of a lot. This is the firewall for marco rubio. Hes still in the game and cruz is still in the game until then. One very quick final question. Who do you say drops out first rubio or cruz over the coming weeks . I dont think either one of them does. But i think rubio has a better path than cruz right now. Okay. Gentlemen, great to have you here. Well have you throughout the evening and more power panels coming up here. Stay with us supertuesday coverage continues. Meantime though its a beautiful night here in florida.
