Reports are circulating that Rethuglican golden boy Sen. Marco "Polo!" Rubio (R-Cuba Libre!) isn't being vetted for the Vice President slot by the Romney campaign. At this point, potential candidates have been asked to fill out extensive questionnaires and to submit tax returns, etc. so that their backgrounds can be checked for potentially embarrassing problems. Not Marco.
With the President's decision not to deport children of illegal immigrants, a position favored by 64% of the public, the Rethugs know their chances of winning over Hispanic voters have virtually disappeared. Conehead-fluent Willard "Self-Deportation" Romney lagged behind President Obama among Hispanic voters by a whopping 45% even before the President's policy change.
