I posted a link in the spin room about where this was a "misinformation strategy" by the Rubio campaign that blew up on them. The link is over in the spin room to the article.

What happened was that two Rubio "insiders" reported to CNN that Rubio was going to drop out prior to Florida. They did this with the hopes the Cruz campaign would pick up on the story and run with it. The Rubio spokesman was scheduled to be on Anderson Cooper later in the evening, and he was going to flat out deny the allegations, point to the Cruz's dirty tricks, and attempt to fundraise off of the "bad information."

But the plan blew up in their face when A) the Cruz campaign didnt pick the story up (some supporters in Hawaii did) and B) the spokesmans appearance on Anderson Cooper was cancelled by the show. So now the story was running unabated, and he couldnt execute his denial plan.

Rubio still tried to raise campaign funds off of it, but the plan utterly failed because they werent able to handle the damage control part of their plan the way they expected.

The claim that it is intentional is the damage control.
