Don't worry Rubio will not need your vote if he is nominated.

Bristoe is funny even when he's wrong. Not sayin' he's wrong on this deal.

As for me..... voting strictly to preserve the 2A makes for a simple political life.

With Rand gone, Rubio is obviously second, behind Cruz.

These guys made their reputations..... I just go by them.

Not a big Rubio fan but.....

You know Rubio appears to be the only happy meal in this race right now.

He is the only only smiling and appearing to have fun right now.

This alone will win it for him.

I can hold my nose and vote for Rubio. But he hasn't done chit to merit the whitehouse. One term senator that rarely showed up for work. Can't open his mouth without rattling off a stump speech.

Just 'cause a fella has philosophical objections to a little pissant like Rubio doesn't mean he's a Hillary supporter. Might mean he's clever. Hillary might get assassinated ya know.

Anyway, if that's the choice I'm doing a write in for the dead cat.

Then you're part of the problem!!!


while funny, that does bring up a good concept

is there a point where you won't vote for an "R" candidate over a democrat?

how about a guy that embezzled $3m dollars in a ponzi scheme before he went into office but he's strong on 2A?

how about someone convicted of manslaughter? raped a girl while he was in college?

the point is - everyone most likely has a cutoff to where they could not vote for a candidate as the Republican nominee

I can see why you wouldn't want to get into those situations.

it would mean admitting there are limits on who you would support as the Republican candidate.

I was very upset when he gave that speech IRT amnesty. He became one of the club so friggin quick, it was shocking, even for a RINO.

In this primary season, he is not even an option. During the general, I will vote for him if he is the nominee, but I will not be proud of it.

Why is it that "conservatives" are able to find one issue with a candidate they don't like and then conclude that candidate is unsuitable? Yes, I get there could be one issue, but when it's a matter of opinion on one policy, I don't see it. There is NO candidate that can meet every conservative voters desires never mind the desires of the rest of the citizens. Never has been, never will be. You have to have the ability to take in the entire record and their platform.

As for illegals, I'm certainly not for amnesty, but it's one issue. Quite frankly not everything he is proposing now is that terrible. The fact that he wants to improve the ability to verify and thus make it harder to function in society is a big positive in my book. There are many other issues, and when they are all factored in there will be one candidate that is better than the other in the election. At the end of the day it will be Rubio/Trump or Cruz OR Clinton or Sanders. One will be president, which do you want?

No, what it means is that a "candidate" who is exposed to have done those things will not win the Repub nomination, so none of us will be faced with those what-ifs ahead of time.

If/when Rubio or Trump or Cruz is proven to have done one of those crimes, he will be thrown under the bus by the Repub process. This is pretty much the exact opposite of the Democrat process, in which illegality and avoidance of prosecution is seen as a politically savvy move.

Or forgive the fact that Trump was a Democrat until he decided to run for President, but not forgive Rubio's amnesty stand. Not a Rubio fan by a long shot but my eyes are not blindfolded either. miles


Look out for number 1, don't step in number 2.
