Hmmmmm.

An article running in the New York Slimes.

Like Rush once said, I wonder how much of it is actually "true," as they tend to hear different things that others say or even others who are present actually hear!

I'll actually search his record, statements and positions and get back with you. What I do know is that Rubio will never be believed by me or many others as he looked into the camera before being elected and claimed he was never about amnesty nor citizenship and turned right around and became one of the Gang of 8 pushing Amnesty just as soon as he became a FL Senator!

Yes, I know, he was a patsy but he's too old to think that his voters, especially those TEA Party voters who donated and worked on his campaign against the establishment's candidate Charlie Crist, to essentially flip them the bird and join Chuck Schumer and push Amnesty as his first official act in DC!

Voters are awfully tired of being played - especially when Trump is calling out their betrayal.

Why worry? Scott Walker was in the same boat.

Agreed. You can be the smartest guy around, but if you can’t connect with the voters, then you have a problem. This isn’t a debate contest.

Take a look at his Senate page on immigration. The link to his amendment no longer works.

Take a look at the video. It will open your eyes.

I don’t think Rubio is a Manchurian candidate I just think he is too ambitious, too young and not trustworthy on immigration.

I love Ted Cruz but he is also young and ambitious and he was not polling well before Trump got in it. He is too conservative for the average GOP voter. Not me or you but the average voter. My second choice is Cruz. My third choice is to sit home and drink a beer.

Well I enjoyed the pics of his barbeque on his FB page. :-)

I know a couple of people involved in the Trump campaign in South Carolina: James Epley, who was part of Newt Gingrich's team that won the SC prmary in 2012, and Nancy Mace, who ran against Lindsay Graham in the Republican primary last year. He will have a formidable organization in South Carolina.

Carson is a strong second, and the Muslim controversy has probably helped him here.

Charles, my father was an illegal immigrant in 1950. ICE found him and gave him an offer he could not refuse. He volunteered to go back to Canada. He got back into line and then came in legally in 1956. So don't let your ignorance stand in Trump's way.

Marco Rubio is pro sodomite candidate.

He is the true model of today’s metrosexual manufactured hiiden agend RINO candidate .

Do not trust this guy, please.

Yes, he has the Club for Growth, Goldman Sachs and a hedge fund sugar daddy. But he is still mired in single digits.
