What boxer Sonny Liston's manager said of him (Sonny had his good points, the trouble was his bad points) is true of Marco Rubio.
His strengths include intelligence, articulateness and, usually, cheerfulness. His misjudgments involve, in ascending order of importance, the Senate immigration bill of 2013, sugar, Libya and S-590. Together these reveal a recurring penchant for ill-considered undertakings.
Rubio's retreat, under withering political heat, from the immigration bill was undignified but not reprehensible. The bill had 1,197 pages because the 906-page Affordable Care Act had not slaked the congressional appetite for "comprehensive" solutions to complex problems. The immigration bill solved everything, down to the hourly wage of immigrant agricultural sorters ($9.84). Rubio shared this serene knowingness.

Apparently George Will didn't get the memo...
I do wish he would show up for work. I can see why he couldn’t get elected dog catcher in Florida right now. He did take them for a ride.
Soooo, is it reasonable to conclude that George is still for Jeb?
One wonders why he would waste his time on Rubio.
George F. Will's Sports Machine.
Jeb has released a full slate of attack ads on Rubio. George Will is part of the Bush camp.
I don’t trust Rubio, so it works for me. Go Ted!
Trouble in RINO paradise?
Will doesn’t care for Rubio?
I wonder if I need to give him a second look.
Maybe I missed something.
Maybe he's switching to Crispy.
Dumping on Rubio works for me too. I’m just curious about why he bothers.
Oh my, the kindergarteners are fighting again.
Rubio has nothing to offer and the Dems will quickly raise his many negatives that will become distractions. Something about Rubio screams "conman." There will be lawsuits about his eligibility - there already are two. He had accomplished nothing, he was part of Gang of Eight, the questionable credit card charges, his lack of work ethic, etc.
Jeb? Who is WRONG about common core, global warming, the Iran nuke deal, and whose wife is going to provide the October surprise of the season? Loser. BTW, when last did Will support a winner?
