Pro-Clinton super-PAC starts IsMarcoWinningYet.com

Allies of Democratic presidential front-runner Hillary Clinton on Wednesday launched a website mocking Marco Rubio’s standing in the GOP presidential primary.

American Bridge 21st Century PAC — which was founded by long-time Clinton surrogate David Brock — unveiled IsMarcoWinningYet.com.

{mosads}“No,” the site reads in large red letters on a white background.

The site offers a link to the RealClearPolitics Republican presidential primary’s ongoing delegate count. Rubio, a freshman senator from Florida, trails GOP front-runner Donald Trump by a significant margin in the index.

Trump has 81 delegates, while Rubio ties with Ted Cruz for second and third place, with each candidate taking 17 delegates apiece. John Kasich, meanwhile, ranks a distant fourth, with 6 delegates. 

Ben Carson and Jeb Bush have won 4 delegates. Bush suspended his White House run last weekend.

Trump won his third of four early voting contests late Tuesday evening, notching a victory in Nevada’s GOP presidential primary caucuses after earlier successes in South Carolina and New Hampshire.

Cruz is the only other Republican contender who has defeated the outspoken billionaire, having edged past him during Iowa’s first-in-the-nation caucuses earlier this month.

Trump needs at least 1,237 delegates out of a possible 2,472 nationwide before to secure the Republican presidential nomination.

Rubio received a massive flurry of lawmaker endorsements earlier this week, with establishment Republicans hoping he can wrest the mantle of party standard-bearer from Trump.

But the Florida seantor has faced nagging questions about his parth to victory, having finished no higher than second in the first four Republican contests. 

Asked Tuesday what states he will win, Rubio demurred.

“We look forward to continuing to add delegates to our count, and as we get into the winner-take-all states, I think we’re going to be in a very strong position,” Rubio said, according to The Washington Post.
