“Republican insiders in early-voting states say a crucial battle is emerging in the 2016 presidential race between Marco Rubio and Scott Walker, competing to establish themselves as the party’s ‘bridge’ candidate who can appeal to both the establishment and grass-roots activists,” Politico reports.
“As it has become increasingly apparent that they are key rivals, the men have started taking regular, subtle but unmistakable, shots at one another. Walker talks about the need to nominate someone who is not from Washington and implicitly compares Rubio to Barack Obama. Rubio suggests that there is ‘no way’ a governor like Walker is prepared to deal with global crises facing the United States.”
