Marco Rubio
— DrewM

Just watch.

Dare I say it? Reaganesque.

Kind of sad to think that the current President of The United States would and could never give this speech.

Just a reminder...he's only 35 39.

(I was told there would be no math. Thanks to Mephistefales for the correction)

3 TRENTON Â— A new poll shows that a Tea Party Republican candidate is continuing to close the gap with the Democratic incumbent in the race to represent New Jersey's 6th District in Congress.

OT, but from NJ.com

Indeed. But I have the feeling we're watching a future President of the United States with that video.

5 I can't remember...was Rubio born in Cuba or not?

Posted by: EC at October 26, 2010 10:40 AM (mAhn3)

6 Rubio was not born in Cuba. His parents were.

7 No, he was born in America.

10 6 Rubio was not born in Cuba. His parents were.

Oh hell yes!!! Then there's a chance he could be President.

Posted by: EC at October 26, 2010 10:42 AM (mAhn3)

11 So you have a first-generation American of Cuban descent, born in Miami, with charisma and grassroots support but widespread appeal.

In related news, every Republican strategist just had a collective orgasm.

Posted by: Benson at October 26, 2010 10:42 AM (qzcNU)

12 Yes, but now I have to have a sick Wicket poster to balance things out.

Posted by: Wicket at October 26, 2010 10:44 AM (Q1lie)

16 No I'm quite serious. After watching this, I think the GOP (if they have two brain cells to rub together) needs to groom Rubio to be on the ballot for 2016. 2012 is too soon, and not enough time for him to prove himself.

Posted by: EC at October 26, 2010 10:44 AM (mAhn3)

17 But can he withstand the cauldron of purity test? We must fully immerse him to find out. Cast him into the river of Truth bound by iron chains. If he doesn't float and drowns - he's our man

I bet Crist is also crying but for different reasons. I will add that Ace has great taste in men.

Any bets that Governor Crist does something unseemly?

Also any bets on what his future holds?

Do you think he is done in politics for good? He is a fairly popular governor. Maybe he switches parties and runs for a house seat?

I can't imagine being in his position right now, and I've had a pretty diverse life," seen the world" and all that. This dude knew what he wanted to be by the time he was 5, I'll bet. I wish him luck, I'd send money if I could. I'm stuck voting against Deval Patrik and John Olver MA-01.

80 As was mentioned above, Obama ran for Illinois' US Senate seat in 2006, and immediately commenced running for President. Before that, he had a completely forgettable career in the Illiniois state senate. His big claim to fame in the Illinois state senate? Voting against a bill that would have allowed babies who survived an abortion procedure & lived to actually receive medical care. Obama was in favor of allowing those babies to be placed in a linen closet of soiled linen until the baby died. Bing Jill Stanek for all the details.

Let's see. IMO In order to win a Republican nomination this next time. [Last time purity didn't seem to be an issue, since we swallowed McCain brand purity (now 20% pure)]

NRA Endorsement.
Tea Party approved.
The no-cap-and-trade.
Repeal/Replace Obamacare.
Balance budget.
Lower taxes.

And I think you can pull it off. Even without the heavy socon stance.

Charlies Crist becomes more of a liberal wuss every day with his incessant whining and carping about Rubios' intent to eliminate Social Security.

The elderly geezers in my neighborhood believe Crist to be a pussy, and unfit to represent them in the Senate.

After his spanking on election day, Crist can commiserate and sob with his good friend and butt-buddy Barney Frank.

If we could get Guiliani elected in 2012 with Rubio as his VP and then Rubio elected in 2016, we could keep the streak going and have 3 Presidents in a row whose last name ends in a vowel. If we elect Romney we would have to go with the vowel rule of and sometimes Y.

Don't want no fucking Guiliani or Romney. I want to vote for someone who I know won't shit on the Tea Party/conservatives. Both of these guys seem that they would. They're a couple of old blue-bloods.

113 telling the newbie elected's not to bring their staffs to Washington because they need seasoned men and women and they will be provided?

To some degree that is probably true when it comes to basic congressional office logistics and responding to resident inquires and complaints. Having a smooth running responsive office on day one will impress the residents of a district.

Not so much when it comes to the legislative analyst/drafter policy wonk types. You don't want establishment cocksuckers slipping shit in or hiding shit from you who are taking their marching orders from a different master..

Once, I gave a lift to my boss and his wife to a car repair shop when their minivan broke down. I drove a 94 Camaro (hey, I was 24 once!) and she sat up front. When she got up to step out, a sudden gust of wind happened to lift up her skirt and almost reveal what color panties she was wearing. She caught her skirt just in time. My boss saw it and laughed that she almost got me fired! Hahahaha!!! He was cool like that!

The Democrats made it clear in 2000 they were no longer gonna play by the rules. It's our own fault* if they cheat us again.

How many times do we need to learn these lessons. Every single election cycle the Democrats cheat more and more. They'll keep doing it if they keep getting away with it.
