The airwaves will be full of ads with Schumer, Durbin and Reid praising him back in 2013.
Then Rubio wouldn’t be the Globalist/GOPe Boy if he did all that. Anyone who says he/she is going to be the ‘Great Uniter’ is someone to run away from fast. Even Jesus never proclaimed himself as a uniter, instead distinguishing those who believed in Him and those who did not - within families there would be fierce enemies. Politics when done right clarifies those basic world view differences... unless you are a liar like Obama, Clinton1/2, Bush1/2/3, et.al., and various others running for office.
This is exactly the thing. If Rubio can convince me he’s “come to Jesus” after the Gang of Eight betrayal, I’m open to supporting him. Other than his support for sugar subsidies — hey, even William Proxmire supported dairy subsidies — he’s been a solid conservative otherwise.
If he doesn’t convince me, I can only support him in the general.
