Has the Left finally been given their great equalizer to ward off accusations of Clinton wrongdoing? In the last 18 years, Sen. Marco Rubio and his wife have received a number of traffic citations:
So we've already reached the bottom of the oppo barrel, have we? http://t.co/y6mf97uRbB
— Rick Wilson (@TheRickWilson) June 5, 2015
The New York Times has the story:
A review of records dating back to 1997 shows that the couple had a combined 17 citations: Mr. Rubio with four and his wife with 13. On four separate occasions they agreed to attend remedial driving school after a violation.
Move over, Woodward & Bernstein — Pulitzer incoming for the Times on this one:
Hillary took bribes to sell our uranium to Russia: meh.
Marco Rubio and his wife have traffic tickets: SCANDAL!!!!http://t.co/Oq8koub8Ku— Razor (@hale_razor) June 5, 2015
NYT put two reporters and an additional researcher on this bombshell that Marco got four traffic tickets in 18 years. http://t.co/QSMO0zNGyj

Marco Rubio's wife has traffic tickets. I wonder if Hillary Clinton's spouse has ever done anything bad. pic.twitter.com/AagpDZkwQa

Let's all just stop &think about @nytimes candidate coverage:
Hillary Clinton: emails/corruption/cronyism
Marco Rubio: Traffic tickets
— Ashe Schow (@AsheSchow) June 5, 2015
Hi @arappeport, why are the infractions from Rubio's wife relevant? Also, how is 4 over 18+ years from Rubio = a news story?

@TheRickWilson @brithume The NYT editor should be moved to the mailroom for that pitiful article.
— Nancy (@LogicalDame) June 5, 2015
NYT had to dig deep to get nothing but 4 traffic citations on Rubio IN THE PAST 18 YEARS. What a joke. Shame on NYT. @TheRickWilson

@TheRickWilson Wow. That is some hard hitting info there. *sigh* It's going to be a long year.
— Mickey White (@BiasedGirl) June 5, 2015
Isn’t it though?
But hey, nobody will be able to point to a similar problem when it comes to Hillary:
Of course Hillary has zero speeding tickets in the last 18 years because she hasn’t driven a car since 1996
— Charlie Spiering (@charliespiering) June 5, 2015
The last time Hillary drove a car, Rubio was 6 years old.http://t.co/jGDSgiLIPq

On the Left, self-awareness takes another holiday:
it's almost like different rules apply to them….. https://t.co/i7muwghn27
— Eric Boehlert (@EricBoehlert) June 5, 2015
But enough about the Clintons already!
wonder what Ferguson locals think when they read abt Mr and Mrs. Marco Rubio getting 17 traffic tix and their licenses never suspended…
— Eric Boehlert (@EricBoehlert) June 5, 2015
The lefties might offering a different spin if Rubio belonged to another party:
Maybe he was racially profiled…
— Pete Kaliner (@PeteKaliner) June 5, 2015
@RBPundit He's Hispanic so if he were a liberal he'd be crying about how he's being racially profiled.

#Truth.
Meanwhile, in the real world:
Because if you read past the NYT headline, the news is that Marco Rubio has gotten FOUR tickets. I got that many in two years once.
— RBe (@RBPundit) June 5, 2015
@TheRickWilson @brithume This is absolutely ridiculous. Traffic violations? Rubio only has 4 since 1997. I wish I had only 4 since 97'!!!

#RubioFacts After fights with his wife, Marco Rubio pulls the milk out of the fridge and drinks it. In front of her. Right from the carton.

@RBPundit : The @nytimes is doing its duty by reinforcing the stereotype of women being shitty drivers.
— I'm a woman, and I'm mad as Hell (@nowhere_nh) June 5, 2015
@TheRickWilson @instapundit In other words..Individually, one of the Rubios gets pulled over once every two years.

@TheRickWilson OMG!!! How can he possibly preserve, protect and defend the Constitution when he is clearly a traffic scofflaw?

Also, the most New York Times thing about that stupid Marco traffic ticket story is that they called his F-150 a sports-utility vehicle.

At least we know the Rubio's drive themselves

A Ford F-150 is NOT an SUV.

One more Rubio misstep and it’s all over:
If the press can catch Marco Rubio in the act of illegally removing a tag from his mattress, he's DONE.

Take caution, senator!
