Rush Limbaugh Likes Marco Rubio, Chides Charlie Crist
"I've never met him, nor have I met Crist, but I know that there's a sea change brewing and effervescing in this country," Limbaugh told a Tallahassee radio station this morning.
While the man is capable of much more pointed words, his comments about Charlie Crist's recent political calculation weren't exactly praise: "I noticed that Crist is out there now, 'Hey what do you mean, who says I'm not conservative? I'm pro-life, I'm pro-gun, well I don't know what more I have to be, except angry.' That's not gonna sit well."
As far as the sea-change Limbaugh's talking about, he points to the fact that Sarah Palin's book sold 700,000 copies in its first week, and that there's a growing distaste for Republicans-In-Name-Only aka RINOs amongst the GOP Base.

I have done research on Rubio's past Bills and found several troubling Bill attempts that died in committee. Please note them all and especially the last one (latest date) where he made an attempt to keep "working papers" (such as dead Bills) from seeing the light of day to the public. We pay these politicians and they work for us and we are the Boss not them. In a nut shell his Bills would have allowed illegal aliens an education on the taxpayers dime! A Bill would have allowed a "self pay" (no insurance) for medical care without the hospital collecting a balance on the hospital Bill. Again this would serve illegal Aliens by protecting them from detection. This is not about party but what is right and wrong.
