Looking ahead to 2028, you can't help getting the impression that Secretary of State Marco Rubio is working hard, seizing opportunities and positioning himself for the next election, while Vice President JD Vance isn't.
Rubio is like the baseball team that scraps for every run and creates openings while Vance seems to be waiting for President Trump to hit a three-run homer to bring him in.
And it's reflected in the polls.
The Atlas Poll has Rubio beating Vance in a trial run by almost 15 points — 45-30.
Rubio seems to grasp, as Vance does not, that Latino is the new Black for the Republican Party. Blacks, particularly women, have been rock solid in their party loyalty to the Democrats while African American men are inclined to stray.
But GOP gains among Hispanics of both genders have been formidable with some polls now rating the Latino vote as a near toss-up with the Democratic lead over Trump among Hispanics down to five points or less.
It's not just that Rubio himself is Cuban but that he has been the foremost voice in fighting the Nicolas Maduros of the world and pushing for the liberation of Cuba.
He has used his position as secretary of state to polish his image while Vance has largely been content with pushing Trump's agenda in Europe, lambasting NATO countries for not doing more to step up for the alliance.
Rubio is clearly leading Trump among Latinos, winning converts for him in a way Vance is failing to do.
Rubio has a charisma edge while Vance seems to be a stolid follower in Trump's wake.
But, in a sense. the contest for the Republican nod in 2028 is a chimera.
Whoever Trump endorses will be the nominee.
No others need apply. But the difference in the enthusiasm level between Rubio and Vance is becoming hard to ignore.
