Politically speaking, Rubio is a dead man walking.

It’s crazy. Rubio had the attention of a good many conservatives. Key conservative media mouthpieces were looking at the man and liking what they saw. Growing chatter about how he might become a viable candidate for the presidency was all over the internet and on the air.

Then, POOF!! It’s all gone.

WHY?

Is he just stupid?

Was he bought off?

Is he dirty and being blackmailed?

Well, my guess is that he’s stupid... and they got him dirty.

What an amazing thing to throw away.....

Of course it will give the Democrats a lock on power. How many illegals are estimated to have been made members of the SEIU? Look at what the SEIU has done already, put cities into bankruptcy. Imagine with that kind of power all across the country.

Why is Rubio ruining his political future for a bill that will die in the house?

Unless Barry Soetoro told the gang that there are enough votes in conference committee or something to that effect...

He is stupid.

He may have been bought off.

He may well be dirty and is being blackmailed

But he believed in amnesty way before most conservatives ever heard of him. He was killing tough illegal immigration bills in the FL Legislature when he was Florida’s Speaker of the House. He stated his dislike of Arizona’s tough laws before he was elected senator. This was not a surprise. I have always been shocked that TEA party people were so easily fooled by him, and even after I told them about his love of illegals, they’d still make excuses for him.

I had hoped that his alignment with the TEA party movement meant he would bury his love of illegals in order to keep himself in office, but no. He was perfectly happy to make conservatives look like stooges. It does not appear that he cares whether or not he is re-elected. As long as he can get illegals into this country, he’ll be happy.
