Rubio: Obama Will Try To "Absolutely Eviscerate" GOP Opponent
If Obama is re-elected, “I think that’s the position he’ll be trapped into taking, because once you go down that road, it becomes almost impossible to make a U-turn and get out of it," Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Florida) said to Newsmax in an interview.
“If you look at the policies the president has pursued, they haven’t worked. This president does not want this election to be a referendum on the job he has done or on his record because if it is, he’s not going to win.
“President Obama inherited an economy that wasn’t doing well. Then his party took control of Congress. He got anything he wanted. What he wanted was the stimulus and Obamacare. They gave it to him and it made everything worse. He made it worse faster than any president has in American history, and now for the first time since World War II our debt is larger than our economy. So he can’t run on that.
“Instead, what you’re going to see is a campaign that’s going to do two things: absolutely eviscerate and smear on a personal level the people he’s running against, and, the second thing, is to run a campaign of dividing Americans against each other, trying to get 51 percent of Americans to buy into the notion that they’ll be better off if they give him the power to make other people worse off.
“What does work is the American free enterprise system, and the president seems to be making the argument that the American free enterprise system is not appropriate for the 21st century, that the things that made us prosperous and different from the rest of the world no longer function and we must embrace a stronger government.
“There are so many countries around the world that have that kind of system, and if that’s what you want to live under you should go over there.â€
