Our 'Part Time' Senator Wants Us to Re-elect Him....

Part-Time Senator Marco Rubio wants us to re-elect him. However, Little Marco has been playing hooky from the Senate much more than the national average for other senators, as noted below:

From Jan 2011 to Jun 2016, Rubio missed 234 of 1,592 roll call votes, which is 14.7%. This is much worse than the median of 1.6% among the lifetime records of senators currently serving. The chart below reports missed votes over time.

You can see that after November of 2014, Florida was largely under-represented in the Senate, because Part-Time Senator Rubio failed to show-up for work on many days. Too bad he collected a full salary during this time, huh?

Governor Rick Scott will not endorse Part-Time Senator Rubio for re-election. Good! Since I am still a Republican, my vote will go to Rubio’s primary opponent Carlos Beruff. Little Marco is a disgrace to the Senate and to Floridians in general.

BTW, Senator Bill Nelson takes his Senate responsibility much, much more than Part-Time Senator Rubio does. Nelson has only missed 107 of 4,898 roll call votes during his 15+-year senate career.

Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders also ran a presidential campaign, and note his senate record, compared to Part-Time Senator Rubio's:

From Jan 2007 to Jun 2016, Sanders missed 205 of 2,945 roll call votes, which is 7.0%.The chart below reports missed votes over time.

Republican or not, I would have NO faith that Rubio would be looking out for anyone but himself -- certainly not us Florida citizens.

I am sure poster Markle will be endorsing Part-Time Senator Rubio for re-election shortly.........

I think his small minded desperation with not being the cute family young Republican has left a lasting impression in most Americans minds......he is a terrible loser, and there is NO doubt that he has always been out for Marco and shills for special interests. I have never in my life seen such an unpleasant primary battle with Trump.....Kasich showed dignity......Jeb showed dignity, but Marco was a whiny little bitch.
