I have one very good reason why not to support Rubio, Hannity was ALL over Rubio’s knob not a handful of years back.

Good observation. He’s getting a good fawning over on Fox right now.

Jaime Fuller, author of this crap, has a crush on Marco.

Sorry, Jaime, but he still has the stench from the Gang of 8 on his shoes. That will disqualify him FOREVER in many books.

Immigration and foreign policy/national security are the two big issues for me. Marco made a huge mistake teaming up with the gang og eight on amnesty. I will never trust him again. I didn’t even hear him mention illegal immigration in his speech. Obviously he intends to pander to the Latino/Hispanic vote.

Rubio - not ready for prime time
Cruz - primed and ready
Hillary - past her prime

NICE! :)

How about Walker? And if he’s not dead, I’m pretty sure Bob Dole is still tanned, rested and ready, LOL!

He gives a very positive speech about America.

None of the politicians and doctors running in 2016 will deport the illegals. None! Zero! So they are ALL for some form of amnesty, without exception.

The first contender who says he or she will deport every law breaker illegal immigrant, goes immediately to the top of my preference list. Keeping these illegals is a suicide mission by republicans. I don’t understand why no one will take that position, which polls favorably by majority of American voters.

But like I said, Rubio is quite charming and telegenic, which will be a stark contrast with old and haggard Hillary on TV screens. He has a natural smile. He does not look menacing. I am not ready to dismiss anyone based on a smirk with Schumer. The coming primaries will tell us clearly who is connecting with voters and who is not. Best method of winning elections is connecting with voters.

Rubio was never suckered by anyone.

From the very start of his political career he preached amnesty to Spanish speaking audiences like La Raza, and securing the border to English speaking audiences.

The speeches were available to watch online. Many articles discussing this were posted here and I participated in a lot of those threads.

So from day one it was indisputably clear that slimeball Rubio was a liar. The only question was...which audience was he lying to?

That is pretty clear now.

It was a good speech. He does have an oratory gift.

And the television likes him much more than warmed over Hilldawg.

DO you have links to web sites of any of the contender running in 2016, who will deport every law breaking illegal immigrant without exceptions? If not they are all for some form of amnesty.

I’m going to give Rubio a chance and a good look.

At the end of the day, the GOP only wins if they nominate someone who can reach the 18-30 year old Millenials set. Rubio might be the best bet to communicate conservative values to that group.

I’m a big Walker fan, he has just not declared yet. A Cruz/Walker ticket would be great. He is smart to wait a bit. The media will be chewing on Cruz, so when Walker does announce he will look moderate compared to Cruz. I don’t think Walker would do this intentionally. Just give a conservative to vote for I am so sick of Rhinos.

Do you know of any candidate for 2016 who has written agenda on his or her wen site which says they will deport every illegal without exception? If you do, I am moving that candidate to the top of my preference list immediately.
