Obama-Crist stimulus rally: the most powerful fundraising tool ever?
by Michael C. Bender | November 3rd, 2009
That’s what Republican Marco Rubio is hoping. The former House speaker launched this Web site today, which his campaign has been teasing as the “MOST POWERFUL ONLINE FUNDRAISING SITE IN FLORIDA HISTORY.”
The campaign launched the site today to coincide with a special Congressional election in upstate New York. Rubio has been very interested in that race after a conservative third-party candidate helped force the resignation of a more moderate Republican.
Rubio has no plans to run as a third-party candidate, but his insurgent campaign against Republican Gov. Charlie Crist does have some similarities. Crist has a 5-to-1 money advantage so far over Rubio.

Hopefully all good citizens will see through chameleon Crist, can’t be trusted on his word and his shady behind the scenes dealings. He should be on a soap opera afternoon tv show.

From the get go there was something that struck me as I considered Crist in the political area…”A wolf in sheeps clothing…” And that was several years ago. Time tells the rest of the story. You decide if there as some truth to that…

You’re all living in a fairy tale. Rubio doesn’t stand a chance, and thank God. Florida would be doomed.

I partly hope Rubio gets the nom and throws the election to the Democrats by being crazy.

Rubio will win the primary handidly. Crist miscalculated voters’ appetite for big government and big spending.
