Rubio Once Thought Early States Had Too Much Power

Sen. Marco Rubio wrote in a 2006 book that voters in Iowa and New Hampshire “have a disproportionate impact on the nomination of presidential candidates,” the Tampa Bay Times reports.

“Today, Rubio hits the road with a new book and his first stop is here in Iowa, a sure sign he wants to compete for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination. We wonder if, given the benefit of time, he’d frame things as he did in 2006.”
