Rubio Vs. Cruz on Amnesty
andy McCarthy has a great piece explaining that no, Cruz has not previously supported amnesty -- and Rubio knows that, but is claiming otherwise to make Cruz seem "just as bad" as Rubio on the subject.
Rubio knows he cannot make himself look better on the subject; and, in fact, it seems like he does not even want to make himself look "better" to those who disagree with him. Rubio is pro-amnesty deep in his heart. He's not just bought and paid for by amnesty-seeking billionaires -- if he were, we could change his opinion by simply changing his patron.
No, he's a true believer, and doesn't want to renounce his enthusiasm for amnesty.
So, unable (and unwilling) to make his position look better to the Republican primary electorate, he tries to make Cruz look worse.
A really interesting take by McCarthy. Do read it.
Also, Ted Cruz released his immigration policy yesterday. He has been criticized for proposing expanding the H1B visa pool; now he calls for suspending the program for six months and halting it if unemployment remains high.
