This is the predicament Rubio must overcome to make a competitive run at the Republican nomination. “I’ll decide by this point next year,”? he says. Until then, he’ll keep grinding out legislation and talking up spectrum reform and the like. As presidential strategies go, this is the opposite of campaigning through dramatic stunts, such as Cruz’s 21-hour speech protesting federal funding for Obamacare. It’s a self-conscious nod to the old notion that ideas, expertise, and experience are prerequisites for the White House—and a bet that, despite today’s poll numbers and headlines, voters will eventually come to agree.
