Rep. Mia Love endorses Rubio
Politico ^ | 11/19/15 | Nick Gass

Utah Rep. Mia Love announced her endorsement of Marco Rubio on Thursday, in the latest coup for the Florida senator among his congressional colleagues, highlighting her belief in his national security credentials.

Love, widely regarded as one of the Republican Party's rising stars, met with Rubio in her home state last month for a roundtable with business leaders and a campaign rally. The Utah Republican rose to prominence with her speech at the 2012 GOP convention, winning her seat in last year's midterm elections. The daughter of Haitian immigrants fleeing from the country's secret police, Love said she found much in common with the life story of the senator, whose parents immigrated from Cuba in the 1950s.

"When he came to Utah, I saw him inspire people," Love said in an interview with Fox News

Yes but she’s a liberal first and foremost. That trumps everything. No pun intended.

Unlike what the conservatives thought (her being naïve), her support for Boehner as speaker was not a fluke.

It's a rational decision.

A congresswoman is almost by definition part of the GOPe.

What is the GOPe?

Look at it this way: you might like Ted Cruz bringing all kinds of things up for vote that he can't win.

If you're a congresswoman or congressman it gets on your nerves. It means more chances to alienate people with your vote and lose support.

If some roll-call is going to hurt you and not achieve anything, you're not going to like having to vote on it. So she's not going to be backing Ted Cruz.

And probably not a loose cannon like Donald Trump either. Who knows what he's going to do or what shape a party will be in after he's done with it?

Her decision may not be yours, but it makes sense for her. And it doesn't mean she's a traitor or a bad person.

lol. ROTFLMAO. Another pedestal topples. That is why you should not put these politicians as Saviors to you. There was only one Savior and she wasn't it. I laugh at all of you for expecting 100 percent lock step. How arrogant..........I do laugh though.

Same old story as to birds of the feather sticking together to sell out the US to non US believers in/to any government but the one intended by the Founding Fathers. Oaths of office mean nothing but keys of passage to these people. Once elected their political virus is allowed to become a stage for more ‘change’. They bamboozle voters with false tongues. Generous voters become stooge voters.

Anyone associated with Romney is in the liberal camp. Not because I say it, but because their actions have proven it. Her. Ryan, Schmitt and Wallace. Thats just off the top of mu head.

Can ANYONE name an actual conservative in the Rooney circle? No. No one can as they do not exist.

Can anyone in the Romney circle commit a random act of senseless conservatism? No because history shows they have not and in fact torpedo conservatism at every opportunity.

If anyone conservative supports or associates with anyone involved with that cabal, the result is rather predictable. They will be backstabbed. Because, again, history shows that.

Hopefully people will wake up to that before the GOp runs him after Rubio fails. It’s coming. Personally I think a Unity ticket with the Dems is likely because if you add Romney’s so called ‘moderate’ support in 12 to Hillary’s ticket, that can top Trump in the numbers game.

And lest we forget, beating him is all the GOP AND DNC care about. Sound nuts?

Does it REALLY considering the actions of the GOP to date?

She ran as a tea party candidate just like Marco. She is converting to GOPe just like Marco.

Exactly...


After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding
this to my posts for the next week. I'm certain our
turn is coming again soon. We stand united against
Islamic extremists.


Some music for reflection if the mood strikes you.

An honorable mention also goes out to Lassana Bathily , a Muslim immigrant from Mali.
Mr. Bathily sheltered customers at the Jewish Deli and helped police by providing info
on the terrorists, and providing the location of survivors in the deli.

Disappointing but she can only vote for one candidate and it will be Trump or Cruz.
