Perfect picture. That was unbelievable. Complete Robo Marco. Obviously in a meltdown when confronted. Malfunction is perfect. Not Presidential material at all.
Everything rehearsed.

Thank you for referencing that article absentee. Please bear in mind that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

With all due respect to part-time Senator Rubio, low-information Rubio has again shown himself to be an excellent example why the ill-conceived 17th Amendent should never have been ratified.

In this case, Rubio can unthinkingly say a person has the right to do with their own body whatever they want to all that he wants to. But it remains that the states have never amended the Constitution to expressly protect the so-called PC right to have an abortion.

In fact, the opposite of what Rubio claimed about our bodies is true. This is evidenced by the states prohibiting the people from consuming ”intoxicating liquors” as evidenced by the 18th Amendment, which was later repealed by the 21st Amendment.

And since Rubios statement about abortion sounded rehearsed, I suspect that he is allowing himself to be advised by people who probably do not know the Constitution any better than he does.

The bottom line concerning abortion is this imo. The so-called right to have an abortion was wrongly legislated from the bench by state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices. These corrupt justices not only stole state legislative powers to ”amend” the vote-winning, PC right to have an abortion to the Constitution from the bench, but they breached the Founding States division of state and federal government powers and stole 10th Amendment-protected state legislative powers to do so imo.

... Rubio was excellent on the abortion question ...

Rubio's well rehearsed, focus-group tested verbal essay on abortion was truly breathtaking.

RUBIO’S answer on life was very powerful. However, his votes don’t match his rhetoric.

Rubio missed the chance to stand up for the unborn, when he skipped a vote on a continuing resolution that contained funding for Planned Parenthood until December 11, 2015.

Don't let anyone tell you that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing....

He's reading from his Teleprompters, right?

Who is writing for the Teleprompter is the real question!

Rubio was my second choice, but he got knocked out last night. The abortion answer was a highlight, but it came later in the debate and by that time the ratings always drop. Rubio lost New Hampshire tonight, and no candidate in recent history who hasn’t won New Hampshire or Iowa in the primary does not go on to win the nomination for the presidency.
