I tend to like Rubio quite a bit, but I can’t deny his closeness with Jeb Bush and the open-borders crowd unnerves me considerably. The first unwelcome hint was when he demured on the topic of the AZ bill when Jan Brewer passed it.
Rubio preaches sensible domestic policy, but he’s out to lunch on the border. Not unless there is some reverse Kool Aid that we can require anyone getting amnesty to drink first.
I voted for Rubio because I wasn’t going to vote for Crist, but Rubio has said that Mel Martinez is his good friend as well as the Diaz Balart brothers. All pro amnesty.
Cubans are not liked by other “hispanics” and Rubio knows it. Mexicans, etc., are not going to vote GOP because Rubio is on the ticket quite the contrary, imho.
I believe Marco Rubio is an establishment GOP and very ambitious, if not he would already have said that the reason he is not running for higher office, is that he is not natural born. He speaks of fiscal responsibility but that’s it...and we have a lot of other important issues he could be addressing with his usual fervor.
