Marco Rubio not told daughter was in accident until after rally for Romney

[UCmeNdc]

I don’t know about you, but if my child were in a car accident, and in bad enough shape that she needed to be airlifted, I’d like to know immediately, not after I’m done campaigning for Mitt Romney.

It will be interesting to see whose staff, Rubio’s or Romney’s, made the decision not to tell Rubio that his daughter was laying on a stretcher until after he was done giving his campaign speech for Mitt Romney.

1. FFS, concern yourself with your own family

2. COVER UP, COVER UP, where is Shame Insanity on this one.

Let's see the time line, maybe the open records will produce the truth.

3. But hey, I'm sure Marco would have wanted them to keep it from him.

4. Yeah you don't wait in a situation like that...

His daughter is 12.

5. Prayers to Rubio's child, first and foremost.

republicans prove once again that their political party comes first, before everything else in their lives.. before their country and even before their own families. sick!

6. Staffer: "Should we tell him she is hurt?"

Teh Mittens: "No, no. Not until AFTER he is done giving a speech about how I would be a great president. Look, if she dies then she dies..there isn't anything Marco can do about it. Might as well get a good 20 minutes out of him before we let him know about the tragedy."


Staffer: "Good call sir. That's why you're the best! You know how to exploit someone better than anybody!"


Teh Mittens: "Well you dont spend a lifetime in vulture capitalism without learning how to use people you see as lower than you, amirite"

Both: " har har har har har"

7. My guess, and were I her mother who likely has his cell phone number or text, etc.

I'd have likely decided that they don't need any more publicity that necessary...i.e. pull him out of a public speech, get a shot of his "first response", barrage him with questions or something. And to "blame" Rubio for it is insanity. He didn't know. Apparently her mother was able to handle things just fine. Let's move on.

9. Is Rubio shameless?

[marezdotes]

10. Rubio's daughter is already born

so why would any Republican's around him give a crud what shape she was in?
