...the GOP base seems in no mood to rally around a principled conservative who happens also to be an optimist.

Optimism has nothing to do with it, Linda. He's for amnesty. That is a deal breaker.

No patriot in their right mind is going to rally around a member of the Gang of Eight, led by Chuck "Putzhead" Schumer and Juan McInsane.

Linda, cupcake, If the GOPe doesn’t shape up real fast, they won’t HAVE a future.

According to this article Ted and Donald will “say anything to win”. The left will just never get it.

a principled conservative

From my reply of August 2013:

Rubio committed an unforgivable sin. Rubio betrayed that he would risk the entire future of conservatism in America in order to advance his career. We conservatives equate the future the conservative movement with the future of the nation. Rubio consciously put the nation at risk for personal gain. The issue of immigration is an existential importance for conservatism and for the Republic. Rubio would cost us our sovereignty, our economic future, and any hope for preserving sanity in the polling booths for at least a generation. By the time America recovers from the immigration flood consciously created by the Democrat party to stack election demographics for generations, there might well be no grand American experiment to salvage. The issue of immigration is just that serious.

Rubio has aligned himself with the elitists and against conservatives. He has done so at the worst time. In doing so he risks everything. We simply can no longer tolerate self dealing politicians who will sell us out. Rubio can never, ever be trusted.

Not a fan of Trump for my own reasons.

That aside he has built a successful business.

Cruz has been successfully defending liberty for a couple of decades.

Either one's resume dwarfs anything the rest of the field can present (with perhaps the exception of Carson).

Rubio = snake oil salesman of the year

First off if the figure is 11 million then 20 million left when?

Liars figure. Rubio will be gone and forgotten, he made his name with the gang of 8.

Is this the same Chavez that stole an election from Bob Dornan? Ahh, I remember it like it was yesterday. The GOP refused to take care of their conservative brother, even in the face of massive illegal voting by the wetbacks, and a loss margin much less than the proven fraud.

Rubio is the future of the GOP. Unfortunately for him the GOP has no future.

The GOP. From a “big tent” to a pup tent.

“Rubio is competing in a primary with two demagogues willing to say pretty much anything to win.’

Linda Chavez is a brave pro-life fighter. Yet, her statement above seems confusing.

Obama, Reid and Pelosi are demagogue who highlight prejudices and downplay facts.

Cruz and Trump are not demagogues, since both highlight real problems and lack of accountability in government leaders.

Michael Medved today said that he supports Rubio, since he wishes to strengthen the border.
Medved also said that Trump is not “electable” nor “presidential.”
Medved also said that Cruz is selfish, since Cruz used the government shut down last year for personal popularity.

While I respect Medved and trust that Rubio would be a better option that Clinton, I trust Cruz would be the best president of the bunch.

I part with most FReepers on immigration.

But, Rubio is a fascist little war monger. He is seriously detestable. I admire the Miami/Cuban immigrant community and am sad that this little creep “represents” them. He doesn't. He has more in common with Hillary & Castro than Reagan.

Rubio is the desired future of the GOPe since their wet dream Bush creased and burned.

I agree, Rubio is the future of the Republican Party. He’ll lead himself and the party to extinction.
