An article out in Politico shows Marco Rubio 'building a national brand.' The freshman senator is making a name for himself as one who sticks to his tea party roots of smaller government and shrinking debt, even if that means opting for a different path than his own Republican Party.

From Politico:

For tea party and other conservative activists, this is the Rubio they’ve been waiting for.

“Marco Rubio has had it, and it hasn’t taken long for Marco Rubio to have had it,” conservative radio talk-show host Rush Limbaugh said on his show Tuesday. “Marco Rubio says, ‘What is this continuing resolution crap? I didn’t come in here to fund the government every two to three weeks, and $6 billion here and $6 billion there. What the hell is going on here?’”

“Wish the damn guy, wish the guy would run for president,” Limbaugh added.
