Front runner Donald Trump has suggested it is too early to say he will be the Republican candidate for November's presidential election.
Despite his big victory in the South Carolina primary on Saturday, the party's frontrunner in the White House race rejected the idea that the nomination was his to lose.He told CBS' Face The Nation: "I don't want to say it's mine" as he admitted he still faces tough competition.
Earlier this month, Mr Trump finished second to Texas senator Ted Cruz in the first contest in Iowa and then won in New Hampshire.
Jeb Bush has pulled out of the Republican presidential race
The latest victory gave the billionaire property tycoon momentum which he will look to build on going into the next contest in Nevada on Tuesday.
That will be followed a week later by Super Tuesday, when more than a dozen states vote.
In South Carolina, Mr Trump picked up 32.5%, while Florida senator Marco Rubio was second on 22.5%, with Mr Cruz just behind on 22.3%.
Mr Rubio said he was in good shape to more directly take on Mr Trump in a smaller Republican field after Jeb Bush pulled out.
He said it was time for the frontrunner to start spelling out clear policy positions on national security matters, healthcare and more.
Mr Rubio said: "If you're running to be president, you can't just tell people you're going to make America great again."
The businessman hit back, saying he has "great knowledge of foreign policy", adding he has a better vision for how to end the fighting in Syria than those who offer themselves as "great military geniuses".
