Why won’t that mean Marco Rubio leave our overly tanned heterosexual brother Charlie Crist alone? As they both fight for Florida’s open U.S. Senate seat, there’s a story floating around that Crist is ready to leave the GOP and run as an Independent, because Rubio is so far ahead (18 points) in the polls. Except that’s nonsense, claims Crist’s camp. And they’re blaming the story on Rubio.
A planted fake story from the opposition? Isn’t that new to politics! “Marco Rubio continuously does whatever he can to distract voters from the reality of his record,” says a Crist spokesman. “There’s a clear pattern that Speaker Rubio on the campaign trail says things that do not match the reality of his record, and this is yet another example of him trying to distract people from that.”
Now you let our little Crist run with the Republican pack if he wants to, ya hear? Play nice boys.

Gee, perhaps Crist shouldn’t have been so eager to throw his gay brothers (Oh waiiiit, he’s straight, THATS right) under the bus to impress the GOP. They’re screwing him over anyway. Ugh, if he runs as an independent how long before he tries to meet with gay groups to explain away his history on gay adoptions etc….

And Charlie was so very forward to working with Miss Lindsey Grahm in the senate……..
zack
As a Floridian who happens to be gay, I can attest that Crist’s sexual orientation is not a factor in this race. What’s killing Charlie is his total failure as a governor. When he ran, he promised to fix the property insurance mess and that he’d make property taxes “drop like a rock”. He did neither.

Marco Rubio is to Florida what Meg Whitman is to California: Conservative anti-gay candidates who could win. With a closeted Gay Governor on the defensive about Senate run and a Democrat possible to become Governor, Alex Sink, things could go better, or much, much worse in the Sunshine State!
AG Jerry Brown needs to win the Golden State or California will be massively destroyed by a heinous woman with a large war chest of revenue.
