Marco Rubio, who wants to be Florida’s next Republican governor, is taking on not his Democratic (or Independent) opponents, but Rachel Maddow.
How to motivate conservative voters to the polls? By attacking that liberal beacon of lesbianism on MSNBC! Which is why Rubio is running ads going after the cable news anchor, for she criticizes him for not being honest about his position on increasing the deficit. Something about $3.5 trillion?
Rubio isn’t “going after her”. He’s trying to bolster himself and his plan by saying she opposes it. He’s trying to persuade voters with “the enemy of my enemy is my friend” line of argument.
Maddow is right that Rubio and other republicans proposing further tax cuts in a recession while crying about national debt are hucksters and idiots.

@ph: I didn’t say they wouldn’t add to the deficit, although it’s just a drop in the bucket compared to what entitlements like social security will add. I’m saying that taking money away from the people that are most likely to invest it in the middle of a recession is a really stupid idea if you’d like businesses to be able to expand and create new jobs.

Rachel Maddow is the sexiest woman on television.
