Fake Pollster Frank Luntz Helped Shape Marco Rubio’s Entire Political Career, Faux News Did Not Disclose His Relationship With Rubio, and that Rubio Previously Paid Luntz

(Breitbart)Pollster Frank Luntz has been instrumental in shaping the political career of Marco Rubio, raising grave concerns about Fox News’ decision not to disclose that relationship, and the fact that the pollster actually had Rubio as a [paying] client, before Luntz showcased an extraordinarily pro-Rubio focus-group after Thursday night’s Republican debate.

Breitbart News has learned from a high-level former elected Florida Republican that Luntz crafted Rubio’s messaging efforts when he was a rising state legislator in the Sunshine State a decade ago.
Luntz was paid to guide Rubio’s transition into a statewide political role and he even helped to fashion the famous “American Exceptionalism” speech that vaulted Rubio to national prominence, spending much face-time with the young lawmaker in the process.
Luntz took up a block of time on Fox News immediately after the debate Thursday night to show how his hand-picked focus-group declared Rubio the winner of the Donald Trump-free debate.
Luntz’s post-debate focus group was so skewed in favor of Rubio it was jarring [and in great contrast to his "focus group' after the first Faux Debate in September which universally bashed Trump].
Fair, balanced, and bloodless, Donald
“Megyn, you asked probably the toughest question of the debate. You gave the candidates no room to wiggle. You pressed him. And he responded,” Luntz gushed to Megyn Kelly, awkwardly referring only to Rubio before even mentioning him by name. “I want to begin with the most important and impactful moment of this debate. It was your challenge of Marco Rubio. And watch how well he did on immigration.”
The focus group, featuring what were advertised as ordinary Americans, delivered a theatrical love-letter to the junior senator from Florida.
Luntz notably did not reveal the names of the participants in the focus group, such as one young man who described Rubio as “aspirational,” leaving journalists unable to ask for additional comments from the pro-Rubio participants.  Rubio actually had Luntz on his payroll at one time. Read more.
