The biggest shift, however, came at the end of 2012, when Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., approached Rubio in the Senate gym to ask if he was interested in collaborating on comprehensive immigration reform — and Rubio, who had previously insisted that “the best way to address immigration issues is sequentially,” didn’t say no.

What a rube...

Immigration like abortion is a litmus test of a candidate's conservative bona fides. Marco Rubio failed the test.

Immigration amnesty is so dangerous to the Republic, to the Republican Party, and to conservatism that it should not require any serious analysis on the part of a Republican legislator to conclude that he must oppose it. Those who do not oppose must offer some explanation other than they have sold out the moneyed interests of the Republican establishment.

An explanation that we must reward illegality in order to stop illegality is preposterous on its face and forces any rational observer of a Republican politician who offers this explanation to no other conclusion except that this politician, too, is on the take. He is either on the take for campaign contributions, for acceptance into the establishment, or for toadying to the media-and the entire heavy-handed bias in this Yahoo piece thoroughly demonstrates its media bias.

Marco Rubio is a brilliant, even charismatic speaker but he has forfeited any claim to conservative support.

Thanks for posting - good article.

I learned a lot about Rubio, hopefully Rush gets around to reading in between his groveling sessions over Rubio.

So Rubio was a Trojan Horse from the start in the Republican Party, at least when it came to coddling Illegals. But he managed to keep that bottled up because he had to get to the right of Agent Orange. But that was still him and he couldn’t hold back - so he very nearly DESTROYED this country once he thought that he had the power to do so.

As I’ve said before, for him to have any chance of redeeming himself, he needs another 12 years in the Senate with a solid conservative voting record. He is not even close to redeeming himself at this point.

Why is this guy considered a presidential contender? Could it possibly be pandering by the GOPe?

Another GOP sissy boy for Uncle Sheldon one of our oligarchs doing his best to suck up the QE easy money while our country slowly starve. Rubio another worthless little boy who sits on the edge of his chair when interrogated by the media propagandists.

Why does any of this matter?

After all he is young and cute...that’s all that matters to the sheep of America. He’s the reincarnation of Kennedy.

The President we have now was elected by guilt ridden whites due to his color alone. Rubio should have his shot at being elected because he is young and cute.

What makes Rubio’s “stumble” so reprehensible is that he ran against an establishment RINO (who later turned Dem) specifically on the issue of opposing amnesty. And then the second the votes were counted, turned into a whole-hog amnesty promoter.

He’s a kid, and he was easily swindled by Chuck Schumer (who presumably appealed to his not-so-well concealed vanity).

Next!

Marco Rubio does not possess the maturity or good judgement to be President. He needs to run for Governor of Fla and serve for 4 years and then think about the Whitehouse.
