I wasn’t voting for Rubio anyway. He is a good talker but I do not agree with him on some key issues.
His amnesty stance utterly overshadows and negates any conservative views he may have. If one is a solid free market social conservative none of it matters if you also favor amnesty and citizenship for the illegals and increased legal immigration as well. What does it matter if there is a one term Reagan but that otherwise Reagan is also an Amnestyist and gains the Democrats an unassailable and permanent socialist voting majority. Any Republican who becomes President and does Amnesty will be the last Republican president-the last non Democrat president. He would also reduce Republican participation in the Legislature to temporary nominality but that obviously wouldn’t make any difference there.
