Marco Rubio wobbles

With Sen. Marco Rubio’s wobbling on the nomination of the highly qualified Mary Barzee Flores to the U.S. District Court bench — having first agreed to recommend her, but now dragging his feet on an Obama nominee for crass political motives only — he yet again displays why he is unsuited for the presidency.

He puts mere politics above the well-being of the community that, in this case, is sorely lacking judges on both the federal and state benches.
