BS. Rubio blocked AZ-like laws when he was the leader of the FL House. He is spewing the same crap McCollum is saying AZ’s law is good for AZ but not for FL. This is after Rubio flip-flopped on AZ’s law. He was against it before he was for it. He sounds like JohnKerry or pathetic Crist.
It is the same crap Jeb Bush, Crist and Rubio are saying. They are RINOs too and not hispanic.

So, assuming that you are correct and Rubio blocked “AZ-type bills” in the FL state house, if Rubio thought that it was a bad idea politically for FL Republicans to adopt a law mandating cops to check the immigration status of everyone they stop, it means that he’s in favor of open borders and amnesty for illegal aliens? While I think that every state—and the federal government—should adopt a law similar to the one recently adopted in AZ, that does not mean that everyone who would rather not do so is a RINO. Remember, too, that Rubio’s family, as well as most of his constituents in his old house district, escaped from a communist regime in which one had to carry one’s “papers” at all times or face getting hauled away by the secret police, so a law like the one adopted in AZ would certainly be controversial even among Republicans in South Florida.
You picked out one, tangential issue—the AZ law—and deemed anyone who would not adopt the law in his home state a RINO. I bet you I can do the same to 99% of Republican politicians nationwide by picking another non-central issue, since X voted to ban discrimination against homosexuals in the workplace, and Y voted against defunding Planned Parenthood, and Z voted for tariffs on steel imports, but that does not mean that 99% of Republican politicians nationwide are RINOs. Marco Rubio is a solid conservative, and will be our ally in the Senate on every issue—including immigration. Falsely claiming that Rubio is in favor of open borders and amnesty for illegal aliens will only result in someone who will vote against us on just about every issue, such as Charlie Crist and (especially) Kendrick Meek, being elected to the Senate in Florida.
