Marco Rubio: I want to thank all of you. I know you worked very hard. Our team here in New Hampshire did a phenomenal job. You worked incredibly hard and I’m grateful to you. Now, we’re still watching these numbers, we’ll see where it winds up but I can tell you I know many people disappointed. I’m disappointed with tonight, I want you to understand, but I want you to understand something. I want you to understand something. Our disappointment tonight is not on you, it’s on me. It’s on me.
