Good observation. When liberal publications and the GOPe are all atwitter over a candidate, conservatives need to run the other way.
I think once mainstream voters understand Rubio’s position on amnesty, they will reject him.
From my perspective, Mariel Rubio’s position on amnesty (however he couches that term) is one no different than Jeb Bush whose loyalties aren’t unclear at all in my book.
I do not recall, but has he ever said anything detrimental against Carter (ala the boatlift fiasco?)
