Words and promises won’t cut it; he’s got to live it down. And that takes time.

I hope that Rubio stays in long enough to split off votes from the awful Bush family’s fat kid. Then I hope he drops out of politics. He can lobby for open borders and the end of America as a Univision host or la Raza official.

He’s a liar and a backstabbing weasel. He needs to go away for good.

Rubio is a proven liar and the author of this article is a fool.

October 24, 2010 while campaigning for the Senate:
“Earned path to citizenship is basically code for amnesty. It’s what they call it. And the reality of it is this. This has to do with the bottom line that America cannot be the only country in the world that does not enforce its immigration laws. It is unfair to the people that have legally entered this country to create an alternative pathway for individuals who entered illegally and knowingly did so. And all I’m saying is that if you do that...you will never have a legal immigration system that works. No one is going to follow the law if there is an easier way to do it.”

June 27, 2013 as an elected Senator:
"Those who once had no hope will give their kids the chance at a life they always wanted for themselves. Here in America, generations of unfulfilled dreams will finally come to pass. And that is why I support this reform (Amnesty)--not just because I believe in immigrants but because I believe in America even more."

Kurt is way off on this. Marco is 100% amnesty. No way Jose.

Rubio reminds me of that kid in kindergarten constantly promising he won’t take the good crayons again, but then sneaks them into his pocket during nap time.

Well, Kurt, it sounds as though you are already a Marco fan hoping for something nebulous so you can proceed but I and many I know aren’t going for a candidate that once lied to his potential voters to get their votes - then in a lightening move, stabbed them in their backs!

This IS a cage match, not with the English language but with some very nasty and evil individuals. Go hard, or go home!

Don’t you just love establishment-types pretending to be conservatives, who advise other establishment-types like Marco and Carly how to win over conservatives?????

“...should he not prevail”

How about they promised him he WOULD prevail. Such would speak volumes about how rigged the system is.

"...flirtation with the Gang of Eight...?

Hardly a flirtation, more like a marriage.

Rubio is joined at the hip with his buddy Schumer....they'll say or do anything in support of open borders and amnesty.

Rubio can NEVER be trusted.

Just no, it will never happen, and anyone who thinks it might is probably not a conservative in the first place.

The only way for Rubio the water bottle dufus to win support from conservatives is to get out of politics completely, even as far as not contributing to or supporting a candidate in any way.

If he said that,

A. He wouldn’t mean it.

B. He would lose the support of the establishment and their lobbyists.

So. IF he said that AND the El Jefe crowd turned their backs on him because of his resolve, then I might consider him if he won the nomination and not before.

Then again, while we’re pipe dreaming, maybe I can get the nomination. Maybe I should throw my hat in the race. Think it’s too late?
