Be careful posting anything “pro-Rubio” on here. You will, most likely, be excoriated and called a “troll”.

Rubio is the GOP Obama.

No problem, we can agree to disagree on him. If you check his FL record as a state legislator, you will see that he has alway supported illegals over citizens. The Gang of Eight was not an anomaly. As speaker he blocked over 30 bills to protect citizens vs. illegals.

I especially don’t like the fact that he thought the voters were stupid enough that he could say one thing on Spanish tv and another thing on English speaking tv.

Just as important....I have yet to see Rubio take a firm stand on anything (other than amnesty). Has he ever bucked McConnell and the current leadership? He is another status quo guy, who really does nothing but try to win the press conference.

Compare how he interacts with the rest of the GOP “leadership” with Cruz or Palin.

Likewise, he has alway been quick to endorse RINOs and get on board with the GOPe when they tell him to get in line. See the endorsement of McConnell, Romney.

I just think he is an empty suit that does whatever will benefit him the most.

On a 1-10 RINO scale, with 10 being the highest (Jeb Bush/Lindsay Graham) I’d rate Rubio around a 7. My biggest problem with him is his record on immigration.

Immigration is the only “flaw” anyone can find in him. He has changed his stand on that. However, most folks on FR don’t believe a person can “repent” and “forgiveness and mercy” are two words not in most FReepers vocabulary. One mistake and they write you off. So glad they’re not God.

Rubio isn’t repenting on immigration. He’s trying to take “credit” for killing the Gang of 8 bill. And that’s after moving the football 99 yards down the field and knee capping conservative opposition to the bill.

He also supports fast track on TPP/TiSA/T-TIP, that along with his gang of 8 involvement should make him unacceptable to conservatives.

Don’t forget his urging of Congress to surrender on the DHS fight over Obamacare funding.
