Kerry's foot and mouth disease - Flashback: Kerry on Rubio

--FLASHBACK: KERRY ON RUBIO:

"I've been impressed by his thinking - doing the homework necessary to earn the credibility with respect to your approach to things. I think that's constructive ... A lot of the colleagues around here, obviously, are interested in substance and interested in people who do the work and are not impressed by people who are prone to play the political end of something and hold a press conference and not do the work ... They want to see someone buckle down and learn the ropes. And I think he's clearly been doing that in a very positive way." - from a June 3, 2012 story in The Miami Herald: "Sen. Marco Rubio earning respect in Senate for foreign-policy work"

I hope he comes out now, and actually takes back what he said (about Rubio, since he's running for prez) after signing that letter to Iran.

Rubio of 2012 trying to learn is a far cry from Rubio of the last 2 years planning his presidential campaign.

I don't think this post has any relevance, especially given current events and yesterday's hearings.
