"Senator Rubio spent time looking at all the options and decided to enroll through the DC exchange for coverage for him and his family," a spokeswoman told the Buzz. The deadline was today.

Rubio took the federal subsidy afforded to lawmakers and staff -- a perk some Republicans wanted to kill off.

1. Maybe he thinks he can sabotage it better

working from the inside!

2. When we start hearing this program referred to as the ACA by Republicans, we will know

the cheese-eating monkeys have surrendered.

3. They Should End the Subsidy

The subsidy for members of Congress and their families should be ended. Members of Congress make about $175,000 per year. In my opinion that is enough money for them to pay for their own healthcare.

5. i agree

they should get the same subsidy a person gets in the private sector making the same money.

8. A person in the private sector making that

Kind of money likely has significantly employer-subsidized health insurance.

9. Didn't Rubio recently make some insane hyperbole comparison of "Obamacare"?

I know a number of them did, but I thought Rubio made one hellofa doozy recently.

And now he's signed up for it ...

10. Like lawmakers need more perks.
