If Marco Rubio is to save any face with the conservative base, he has to vote against this bill, IMO

[DoughtyOne]

Why not, he seems to flip-flop with ease.

I’m a Conservative. Well, no I’m not a Conservative. Well maybe tomorrow I’ll be one again. I’m so dizzy...

Yes, we know.

[chris37]

I would be surprised to see myself vote against Rubio when he’s up for re-election.

[samadams2000]

Hey Rubio! How’s the govenement going to conduct 11-30 Million background checks? They aren’t. End of story.

[Naplm]

Rubio is history for me

[Paine in the Neck]

I wouldn’t be surprised either but it won’t wash the stink off.

[kjo]

If he doesn’t he’s as finished as Christie.

[Yogafist]

He is all over the radio promoting this ridiculous bill, calling it the toughest border protection bill ever. Everything he says in the ad is a lie, how would voting against it save any face?

[Blood of Tyrants]

There was never any intent to beef up border security and to do anything about the illegals who don’t want to or can’t become citizens.

[mylife]

Rubio has been trying to play the same game that Reagan got beat at.

“I will vote for amnesty ONCE provided we seal the border”.
The border was never sealed.

His flirting with that disaster makes us all uneasy.
We got screwed once on good will, and the flood gates have been open ever since.

Rubio is a Fraud. He may vote against it only if he knows that the bill will pass. Rubio desperately wants this bill to pass.

He knows this bill will destroy our Republic.

The fraud who is Rubio may vote against this bill trying to fool Conservatives into believing he saw the light.

[SWAMPSNIPER]

No matter what the promise about enforcement there is no way to hold them to their word.

Enforcement MUST come first and be effective!

[TomGuy]

In for a penny, in for a pound.

Rubio has already done himself political damage. No need to stop now. He will vote for it. He wouldn’t want to disappoint his new BFF’s — Schumer, McCain, Graham.

[drypowder]

As I understand, these regs in this bill that are totally anti-American, anti-freedom and pro illegal alien
(1)biometric ID requirement in order for anyone to be employed in the US. Politicians, their families and their staff are likely exempted.
(2)$150 million dollars to go to ACORN type orgs supposedly to aid the illegals in signing up and getting free government benefits and registering them to vote. Guess which party they will be encouraged to register with.
(3)no immediate closing of the Mexican border
(4)no deportation of anyone already here illegally (amnesty), not even convicted criminals (read the fine print)

[jimbo123]

Rubio will vote against it when Boner tells him he has enough RINO and RAT votes in his pocket to pass amnesty without him.

[bestintxas]

Rubio has voluntarily neutered himself forever to conservatives

He has joined the likes of McCain and Graham as seekers of fame, not what is right

Stick a fork in him. He is done

[FlingWingFlyer]

That horse**** about the illegals not being eligible to apply for welfare for 15 years will last as long as it takes for a racist, La Raza shyster "lawyer" to get a lawsuit written up and on the desk of some Federal "judge".

The horse**** about the illegal aliens being welcomed "out of the shadows" so they can start paying taxes, well, 52% of the people in this country do not pay any taxes. Where are all of these illegal going to get the high paying good jobs that will put them in the tax bracket that will require them to pay taxes? More than likely, they'll all be getting the EITC. That's going to cost us a bunch.

Then there are the "fines" they will be required to pay unless they apply for one of the over 400 "waivers".

America can't afford "immigration reform" right now. We're broke. "Immigration reform" is a joke. ON US!

The final bill will not matter...let’s see how he votes on Cloture, when 60 votes are needed.

[ak267]

We’ve seen this tactic before....propose a bill, it “changes/evolves” and the poor schmuck who proposed it votes against it (meanwhile, it had enough votes to pass so his “no” vote is worthless...kind of like a certain Senator from Nebraska on Obamacare).

You’re too deep in the doo-doo Marco....you can’t wash this off.
