Sources close to major Republican contributor tell Politico that Adelson heaped praise on Rubio’s performance in recent meeting.

Casino magnate and Republican Party contributor Sheldon Adelson is increasingly inclining toward backing presidential hopeful Marco Rubio, sources close to Adelson told Politico.
According to Politico, Rubio and Adelson met in the latter’s offices at the Venetian Las Vegas, one of Adelson’s casinos, where the mogul lauded Rubio’s campaign achievements.
Politico’s sources said that though Adelson has made no decision yet on who to endorse, momentum has strongly shifted to the Florida senator’s favor. An endorsement from Adelson carries with it a hefty campaign donation – in 2012, Adelson spent more than $100 million on Republican candidates. A formal endorsement could come as soon as the end of October, the sources told Politico.
Rubio’s poll numbers have seen an uptick in recent weeks, and the backing of the 81-year-old Adelson would give his quest for the 2016 Republican nomination a serious boost. To outlast such well-funded establishment favorites as former Florida governor Jeb Bush and Wisconsin governor Scott Walker, he’ll need the support of deep-pocketed contributors like Adelson, whose $32 billion net worth makes him the nation’s 12th-richest person, according to Forbes.
The Florida senator’s outspoken support for Israel is a big draw for Adelson, who owns the largest newspaper in Israel, the Yisrael Hayom freebie, and regards Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as a close personal friend.

Is it not inspiring to see one loyal American willing to invest his hard earned savings to support another loyal American in his quest to loyally serve the American people?
Of course Adelson wants Rubio the ” Hispanic “, as he is a Marrano.
The name ” Rubio” is wholly Jewish ,and far from Spainish !
Look at the man closely. Ever see a real Latin look like him ?
Pancake ears,and snub nose. Squat ,round shouldered, comb over .
He looks a young Edward G .Robinson is so many ways.
Plus,he is young, and dumb. Jews love fools to manipulate.
Today people go for the Senate not to serve,but to run the President !
Rubio was escorted around the Jewish lobby by Fmr Senator Lieberman 6 years ago as s freshman.
They where cultivating him then.
These candidates crave the presidency so badly, they willingly sell their souls to the devil to get it.
“Mr Rooo-Beee-Oh, Boss Adelson is tied to organized crime. How do you respond to that?
I have more chance to be President than Rubio. Trump is going to be the Repub nominee unless the Bush Crime Family has him murdered or they cheat him like they did Ron Paul in 2012.
