I wasn't all that impressed with him, but this clinches it. Focus completely on Cruz and Rand for the time being.
It seems while Levin & Limbaugh are quietly backing away from Rubio, apparently discerning that they’ve been had, ol’ Hannity is still carrying the torch for him.
I live in Florida and voted for Rubio. I won’t vote for him again. I have a quick learning curve.

Did you not notice that Rand is on board with Rubio on immigration reform?
The solution is to keep voting for lesser evils because democrats are worse. Democrats block immigration enforcement and...
Oh wait.
Hope Rubio makes people realize the utter stupidity of electing ‘lesser evils’. But there are plenty who demand we do anyway.
That’s not entirely true.
Senator Paul is in favor of some type of immigration reform but he jumped off this bandwagon a while ago.
Senator Rubio is out on this limb all by himself.
Actually Rand doesn’t support the Rubio bill. He want’s real inforcemnt first, and no government benefits. Not perfect, but a lot better than Rubio.
If the Rubio/McCain/Schumer/Graham bill passed and Obama signed it, the enforcement provisions would be dumped in the trashcan 5 minutes later.

If they were serious about enforcement, they could do that with existing laws. Enforcement rhetoric is just for the sake of getting support to pass it. It is the same ole shell game. It is the same ole hoodwinking. It is the same ole attempt to pull the wool over the eyes of the citizenry.
Rubio is already on board with kicking the enforcement down the road 5 years. Initially, it is under Homeland Security. If they fail ‘to secure the border’ in 5 years, then a special commission is formed.
5 years.
How many more millions will have crossed in that time span?
We must do something on immigration reform but Rubio’s way is dead wrong
Do us ALL a favor.... CALL ANNIE ASAP!
What exactly is wrong with the laws we have other than the fact they go unenforced?
What EXACTLY is wrong?
we don’t need new laws. what we need is to repeal some of the horrible laws democrats passed as in the 1965 immigration act which caused immigration to come from mainly Mexico and the 3rd world. this was THE death blow to America.Before this law immigration to the USA came from Europe and we didn’t have illegal immigrant problems:

They are in the way of these treasonist bastards, that’s what is wrong with them.

So now I think all the scandals are intended to distract from Rubio’s amnesty bill.
For decades, Mexicans have been about 30 percent of all legal immigrants to the United States, while only a smidgen more than 1 percent come from Great Britain. Is that fair? Granted, their food is better, but why is it the norm is to have nearly 30 times as many Mexican as British immigrants?
We have been taking in more immigrants from Guatemala, the Dominican Republic and Colombia, individually, than from England, our mother country. There are nearly twice as many immigrants from El Salvador as from Canada, and 10 times as many as from Australia.
Why can’t the country be more or less the ethnic composition that it always was? The 50-1 Latin American-to-European ratio isn’t a natural phenomenon that might result from, say, Europeans losing interest in coming here and poor Latin Americans providing some unique skill desperately needed in our modern, technology-based economy.
To the contrary, it’s result of an insane government policy. Teddy Kennedy’s 1965 Immigration Act was designed to artificially inflate the number of immigrants from the Third World, while making it virtually impossible for anyone from the nations that historically provided our immigrants to come here.
Pre-1965 immigrants were what made this country what it was for a reason: They were the pre-welfare state immigrants. From around 1630 to 1966, immigrants sank or swam. About a third of them couldn’t make it in America and went home — and those are the ones who weren’t rejected right off the boat for being sick, crippled or idiots.
Someone from Daily Caller been reading my posts
I knew this back in 2010....and voted for Libertarian Alex Snitker (who actually was more a conservative )
Anyone still pushing Rubio as a Conservative is not being conservative
Which puts anyone calling for new laws firmly on the side of the libs. Because logic dictate that if they were not, they would be demanding enforcement of what we have before changing it.
Rand Paul supports Amnesty. He wants an Amnesty bill
That’s what Chris Crane called the gang of 8 out on. None of them have ever worked on enforcement. McCain, Kyl, and Napolitano were against Prop 200. The state Republican Party passed immigratin enforcement against Kyl and McCain. There is little enforcement in New York, Colorado, Vermont or Illinois where the Dems are from. Flake has been with Luis for a long time on immigration. Rubio thinks illegal aliens are starving. Mexico and central America have a huge obesity problem.
Hannity is giving him major airtime tonight to “explain” his amnesty. One again, he’ll be lying through his teeth to the American public.
He also doesn’t want to send them home.
