Sen. Marco Rubio is earning rave reviews from Hispanic conservatives for delivering the GOP response to the State of the Union address in Spanish.
Marco Rubio delivering the response in both English and perfect Spanish…pure amazing…take a look into the future!!!

@HeidiL_RN in Spanish I would say "¡Rubio estaba encendido!"

Rubio's Spanish address even better. Slightly different. Even mentions single moms. Very touching. #GOPResponse

Many liberal Hispanics aren’t nearly as impressed:
…no Marco Rubio, saying the same rhetoric in Spanish will not get you my Latina vote.

and don't think Marco Rubio sounded much better in Spanish because he did not, right-wing Cubans didn't understand a thing. #tcot #gop #p2

But least one appreciates the effort:
Biggest difference between Rubio Spanish speech and typical GOP message? He didn't talk down to us.
