At least Rubio didn't say that the police were picking on white Hispanics

The Democrats, and their allies at The NY Times, must be worried about Senator Rubio.   

How else do you explain the silly story about Senator Rubio and traffic violations?   How do you explain it in light of The NY Times’s total silence about Senator Obama's driving record?

To be fair, a story about reckless driving could be relevant about a person's character, especially if it involves alcohol or drugs.   It may be something we should know about the candidate if there is a pattern of recklessness.

There is nothing like that in Rubio's past.  This Rubio story is about as important as the one about Romney's high school days back in 2012.

There are two points about the Rubios that The NY Times did not tell its readers:

First, the Rubios paid the fine, took the defensive driving course and didn't try to use their influence to get out of anything.  In fact, their behavior was what we would expect from any of us, as H.L. Wolff wrote:

Now, as a person who has been important in Florida politics for a long time, Marco Rubio could have doubtless made some strategic phone calls and made these traffic tickets disappear. Instead, however, he appears to have pretty much paid them. For his wife, he made the shocking change of strategy, reported with equal breathlessness by the NYT, of… hiring a lawyer. Cue the spooky music and include the lawyer’s ad, which (shockingly) reports that he specializes in defending traffic tickets.

Second, Rubio did not play the victim card or say anything about the police targeting Cubans, white Hispanics, pretty Colombian blondes like his wife or anything else.  The Rubios let the police do their job and moved on.

How do you explain it in light of The NY Times...

How do you explain it? Very simple. The Times has been a Communist front organization for many years, and they simply contine. Now, with majority foreign ownership, they can be expected to get even worse.

The Slimes doing a minor hit piece to appear as an attack from the left so those on the right rally around an ally?

Rubio was loved by the Slimes when he schemed with Schumer agains the citizens and the rule of law. His Gang activities to “Comprehensively Screw Americans Out Of Their Country” make him an enemy of conservatism.

I expect they’ll publish Rubio’s grade school infractions next. Nothing is too trivial for the Slimes. Anything that will stick.
