Rubio’s newest TV ad continues family theme
by George Bennett | September 9th, 2010With this new ad by Republican Marco Rubio, all three Florida Senate candidates have now weighed in with post-Labor Day TV spots.
Democrat Kendrick Meek, trailing in the polls and having to defend his partisan base against indie Charlie Crist, clearly identified himself as a Dem and mentioned seven specific issues and threw in a George W. Bush reference in his spot.
Crist pledged to take the best ideas of both Republicans and Democrats in his ad.
Rubio, who released a late-August ad celebrating his Cuban-exile parents’ pursuit of the American dream, follows with a spot that features his four kids and says: “If we honestly confront the great challenges of our time and end foreign debt, record spending, and runaway government, theirs will become the most prosperous generation in history.”

Rubio’s has my vote. Can’t afford further debt, continuous spending.

Partisanship is killing our nation and it is time we stood together and made a statement to those who refuse to work across party lines to fix our broken system. That is why Charlie Crist is the right person to represent Florida in Washington.

Boring and not memorable.

I would love to hear what Rubio’s wife feels about Marco Rubio and his bad treatment of women as Speaker of the House. He killed off the Federal Equal Rights Amendment two years in a row. For more on his brutal treatment of women see ERA at http://www.dennywood.net

Paul…Really? What party put us into this position? Did you miss members of the R party spending like drunken sailors? Did you miss all the crap that went on during the Bush years? All 8 of them? Did you miss Mr. Boehner (sp) begging people to vote for the STIMULUS in Sept of 08? You may want to think about who exactly did ALL that spending. I dont care who you voted for, the facts are simply that this is not an Obama issue solely and to ignore that which happened right before your eyes shows that your opinion is based upon your partisanship.
