Rubio's come off as the best establishment candidate two debates in a row, so yeah, his stock is definitely rising.

I've actually believed for a while that this nomination is going to come down to Rubio and Cruz, one best equipped to absorb the establishment support and the other likely to be the last Tea Party vanguard left.

Funny how Rubio wasn't even considered part of the establishment until the true outsiders... Trump, Carson, Fiorina... showed up.
Rubio's been part of the establishment wing.

Fiorina's not a true outsider. She ran for Senate in 2010, and was the Vice-Chair of the Senate Campaign Committee in 2012.

Rubio was the Tea Party challenger to Crist in 2010, but I think he's the only insurgent candidate who, like Toomey, has worked more in the mainstream right after winning the primary.
