Marco Rubio’s campaign scored big today by winning the endorsement of South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley just three days before that state’s primary. The two appeared together today in Chapin, South Carolina, to make the announcement, and more than a few people in the crowd saw a dream ticket form before their eyes.

It’s true … sorry, Jeb!

@postandcourier @JayCostTWS I like them as a ticket. Generational/ideological divide with Democrats.

A Rubio-Haley ticket has just become the best possibility for Republican road to the white house

This Haley endorsement is very big for Rubio. Also any Democrat will tell you the optics of a Rubio/Haley ticket is terrifying.

Rubio-Haley 2016? It would be quite a ticket.

I wouldn't be opposed to a Rubio/Haley ticket. #JustSaying

Quite likely, I think, that if Rubio somehow comes back to win the nomination (how?), the ticket is Rubio/Haley

A Rubio-Haley ticket would really be something.

Rubio/Haley 2016 would be a pretty damn hard to beat ticket. Just saying

A Rubio-Haley ticket is Hillary's worst nightmare. V-e-r-y tough to beat. And I'm liberal.

Regardless of one's views re policy/electability/etc (so spare me), a Rubio-Haley GOP ticket does seem rather attractive

A Rubio/Haley ticket would not just beat Hillary Clinton, it would annihilate Hillary Clinton. #SCPrimary #TeamMarco pic.twitter.com/U7j5i5xH3u

I can very easily see a Rubio/Haley ticket if GOP voters get smart and decide they want to win in November.
