Michelle Obama rallies for Charlie Crist in Orlando, but no sign of president

...Barack Obama is increasingly unpopular among Floridians, but that did not stop Charlie Crist from happily campaigning alongside first lady Michelle Obama on Friday to boost his bid to unseat Republican Gov. Rick Scott.

"There's a reason why Charlie is known as the people's governor here in Florida," Mrs. Obama told the predominantly black and Hispanic crowd of about 700 people inside a park gymnasium. "It's because Charlie gets it."

The nearly 20-minute speech was reminiscent of the playbook for her husband's 2012 re-election campaign, especially its focus on the country's economic gains from when President Obama took office in 2009, when "we were in full-blown crisis mode."

Hilarious. This passes for journalism.

Obama’s poll numbers are abysmal, with only 38 percent of likely Florida voters approving of his performance and 56 percent disapproving

To really put the icing on the cake, Moosehell should have treated the crowd to one of her fantastic school lunches.

They would be salivating over the kale and okra salad, I suppose. That would have closed the deal. Missed opportunity.

In other Florida news, new species of whale sited in Orlando.

Whale-watchers are calling it the “Sasquatch of the South”.

I find it offensive that a single person from Washington, DC, has the audacity to dictate what the children of America needs to eat for lunch. I do not care who he/she is. To think that she knows best and that the good people of any particular state/county/town cannot figure it out for themselves. Arrogance.

Barak will be in Portland Maine on October 30 to campaign for the Dem Gov. candidate Michael Michaud. Michaud ranked about 400 in power ranking after 12 yeas in congress and has had Bill Clinton and Michelle Obama make appearance here with Barak due up next. They are dead set in getting Paul LePage.

He is also campaigning for gov. candidates in other states incl. Wisconsin.

What party is Charlie Crist running with this week? Democrat? Republican? Crybaby Independent?

No principles... Of course, he’s perfect Democrat.

I don’t know why this clown is viable as a candidate for anything other than dog catcher. He’ll sell his orange soul for the spotlight.

“It’s because Charlie gets it.”
If it can be gotten, you can be sure Charlie’s had it.

The proof is in the pudding....the great state of Florida has 20,000,000 residents!!! Less then 700 people turned out to watch MIchelle Obama, and Charlie Crist, failed political rally....dismal turnout!!! And....the Tampa newspaper failed even the basic info of where the rally was held!!!

Folks destroy the entire Democrat Party, politically, on Tuesday, November 4, 2014, by voting against every single Democrat Party nominee on the ballot, and with that action, make POTUS Obama, an instant “Lame Duck” POTUS!!!

I pray every day for failed, anti-American, Muslim Brotherhood, POTUS Obama to come to Florida and campaign openly and widely, with Charlie Crist and every other Democrat low life in the state!!!

I wonder how many were paid union stooges...

Likely most... since the Wookie was speaking...

Can't have any hecklers or opposition people present to spoil the fun...

Judging by the pictures the majority of the audience was black.

A little nugget of information you will never see reported by the MSM

For one thing, the Ebola scare is keeping the president off the campaign trail. The White House scrubbed a planned trip Wednesday to campaign with Gov. Dan Malloy in Connecticut, one of several overwhelmingly Democratic states Obama had scheduled for visits in the final weeks of the election. He is scheduled to campaign in Illinois and Maryland on Sunday.

Imagine that, he actually stopped campaigning to address one of the most serious threats to our national security...

The MSM probably thinks that is a feather in his cap..

I really don’t want to read her message but I doubt it included the hope of those who are in support of ISIL, the Caliphate, and the establishment of Sharia law when slave girls are again allowed. I can see her daughters wanting to convert publicly.

I hope the NSA forwards this to her. I tried to send it to her but I can’t fill in all the info needed. I forget my blood type and haven’t had my iris scanned.
