Marco Give-Them-Amnesty Rubio is not all that conservative.

Actually, Marco Rubio seems to be pretty consistently conservative on all other major political issues... It’s just extremely unfortunate that, for whatever ill-advised reason, he chose to make a pathway-to-amnesty for illegal aliens his signature issue. I will never comprehend how an otherwise bright guy could make such a foolhardy miscalculation and pretty much destroy his once-promising presidential aspirations in the process.

easy he was not representing his constituents but rather his grandiose plans for bigger and better things...he’s just another self serving politician who forgot how he got where he was

I hear what you’re saying. I really do. But if you’ll excuse the analogy, that’s kind of like saying, ‘Apart from the inoperable brain tumor, the patient is in very good health.’

I.e.: given where we are with immigration right now, the pro-amnesty crowd cannot convincingly lay claim to the ‘conservative’ title. It is THE issue of the moment, and it is dispositive w re: to America’s future. Block amnesty, & we may yet make a comeback. Pass ‘comprehensive immigration reform,’ & we are done for.
