Unlike Ted Cruz, I think Rubio feels bad about what he's being asked to do and say. He always seems terribly uncomfortable when he squawks propaganda.. Get him talking about something in a non-partisan way, and he can be quite refreshing. In another time, Rubio could have been a bridge to the Middle like a Ronald Reagan or Dwight Eisenhower. Instead, he's the sleazy right's marionette token. He needs to break from that. Twenty years from now, the Tea Party will be a memory - and an unpleasant one. He has to think about his future, and his country's.<br /><br />Don't get me wrong. I'm not a fan of his politics. But I think he could actually help things and it's depressing to see him wasting that opportunity. Chris Christie helped things, a little. I wish the GOP would just at least try to reach out to more people, and not in a sleazy token way. The Right is just breaking away these days.<br /><br />JMJ Jersey McJoneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15426560061830038806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8549971354391868786.post-81782417136422664752013-10-21T07:45:45.375-04:002013-10-21T07:45:45.375-04:00The guy is a clown who's existence is only to ...The guy is a clown who's existence is only to say whatever crap he thinks the people that can do him good, voters, Senator McCain or Sarah Palin,etc. want to hear.
