Rubio is at least certainly the next Jeb Bush.
The next big loser?
I dunno, but who’s gonna be the next Rubio?
“Rubio to be the GOP elite’s candidate to receive their coronation (Déjà vu):”
If he’s the next GOP choice, I’m for someone else. Anyone else...
I know everyone is gettign all excited abotu Rubio- But I’ll say it here and nowe that there is just somethign I don’t quite trust about him- It’s kind of like tthe feeling I had abotu Christie before he turned traitor on the GOP- I never trusted Christie and I’m gettign the same kind of gut feeling about Rubio too for soem reason- perhaps it’s how he’s worded thigns i nthe past, or maybe it’s soemthign else, I dunno at this point- reserving judgement until such time as he proves himself a reliable solid right wing conservative-
Answer: Yes.
If anyone from FL gets my vote in 2016 (assuming white middleaged males are allowed to vote by then... I envision simply thinking of owning a semiautomatic spitball shooter will be a felony by 2016)...
...I will write in LTC Allen West.
Jeb is the next Romney - Rubio is the next Herman Cain.
So we are already sniping Rubio and he has not thrown his hat in the Ring!!!
I don’t get the hero worship. I like Sarah Palin because she seems to be a decent person who shares both my political ideology and faith. She also has the political popularity to have a chance of making a difference on a large scale. There are plenty of people who are just as good as her, but they don’t have the popularity necessary to get into the right circles. That said, I’d oppose Sarah Palin if she started espousing things like an immigration amnesty (unless, of course, she had a very good explanation that would address my concerns).
Then you have Marco Rubio. Here’s a guy that pretty much came out of nowhere without a political track record (that I know of) of doing anything substantially conservative other than talking a good game. He played some sports in college, moved almost immediately into “public service” as a state representative, and was only recently elected to his first term as a US senator. He also revealed himself some time ago as an amnesty supporter—as soon as the border is secure of course. Yet, people were already saying he would make a great president.
Now I understand Barack H. Obama came out of virtually nowhere—no private or public sector governing/management experience whatsoever, but that doesn’t mean Republicans have to nominate someone like him. Sarah Palin, frankly, doesn’t have a substantial track record of conservative governance either, but her record looks pretty solid compared to Rubio.
So again, what’s with the Rubio worship? It doesn’t seem very conservative at all. Do we really need a political aristocracy on the right that’s like the one on the left (except ours will have “R” next to their names)???? If we must, can we at least pick ones that believe in conservative ideology rather than the likes of the Bush family who only appear conservative enough to get elected????
How about the next Reagan?
Rove we can be sure is for Jebbie in 2016. The Republican primary voters will likely want Jebbie because “it’s his turn”, and they have “heard of him”.
Rubio cannot win a general election.....he is too pro Amnesty for conservatives.....and too Cuban to bring in Mestizo and Mexican American voters
If you give Illegal Aliens Amnesty, how can you be trusted to fight Islamic Terrorists
Rubio!!!...No, Christie!!!...RUBIO!!!...CHRISTIE!!!...Oy vey...
My underanding is that Rubio isn’t eligible, so he’ll never get my vote if that is true.

Nah... he’ll be better than Romney, but it doesn’t matter anymore anyway, so there’s no point in worrying about it.
