I actually looked to help him out with his campaign for the Senate here in Florida.

I tried contacting his office via email, but I didn't get a timely response.

I'd love to help him get elected.

However, he is the underdog. It is very unlikely he will beat the moderate Rep. Crist-- comes down to money and exposure for Rubio.

If he can't win in his own state, he won't be the President-- maybe a good VP.

Two prominent Florida Republicans have withdrawn their endorsements of Gov. Charlie Crist's (R) Senate campaign.

The loss of the Diaz-Balarts' support spells bad news for Crist, who has struggled recently to shore up support among his state's Republican base.

The brothers, who endorsed Crist early in the primary contest, could have helped deliver to the governor important votes among the Latin American community and in the Miami area, where Rubio has posted strong gains.

‘Wow.” That was the response of a cynical Florida Republican politico recently reacting to poll numbers showing former state speaker of the house Marco Rubio tied with Gov. Charlie Crist.

"WOW."

I didn't know that.

I wish his office would have responded to my email.

Bobby Jindal may beat him in 2012, but if he waits until 2016 with his current record and what he is accomplishing he may be undefeatable.

No matter what happens the Republicans will make big gains in 2010 AND 2012, however never underestimate their ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. There are still many of the blue blooded country club RINO's who STILL believe that McCain lost because he wasn't moderate enough and believe that doing the same things that bring about failure over and over again will eventually bring about a winning ticket.

Also look for a wave of conservative women (the 'Palin' effect) entering politics over the next two years.

Any republican not named Palin will defeat BHO. What a train wreck his administration is.

PS- not that I have alot of confidence in the Republicns, but nothing can be worse than this. And for the record Bush wasn't a bad president

Hope you guys are right about Obama not being re-elected, somehow I have a feeling that he just might.

The head of the elephant is cut off. Obama can't do anything wrong. Nobel, health care, etc....

Just because things are looking poorly now, dont forget, 2012 is a long ways away! These jokers are pro's in turning things to their advantage.

Ask Bush #1 about quick turnarounds in the polls. He scored high, but come elections he lost to Clinton. He thought he had it in the bag.

Somehow I have a bad feeling that BO has more up his sleeve than what we see,
