Florida governor to endorse McCain TRIBUNE-REVIEW
Salena Zito
ORLANDO, Fla. -- The Associated Press is reporting that Florida Gov. Charlie Crist will throw his support behind John McCain.
He joins Sen. Mel Martinez in what may prove to be the push McCain needs over Mitt Romney as the two battle it out for first place in the Sunshine State.
Getting Crists support was considered by all of the candidates a huge catch. Crist enjoys over a 70 percent approval rating.

I didn’t know Obama was in the Republican primary.
Always remember.
Here’s a ‘no surprise’ for you.
After all, this is Florida.
RINOS abound! All the same..RINO or Stuipd Dim.
two different posts from my reports from the campaign trail in Fla.
:)
I live in FL. Crist is such an insincere phony. I hear this whenever he speaks. He’s not a Democrat.....that’s the best I can say about him
Crist just signed an awful agreement with the Seminoles over how much they’ll fork over each year to the state for taxes on their casinos
Birds of a feather and I do mean birds. Lefties stick together. It’s quite sickening and if McCain was leading, Crist would not have endorsed him. Crist just wanted to upstage Barak Obama tonight and he did. It was like watching the Outer Limits (where Crist, Martinez and McCain belong).
Crist is a money handler. Money in and money out. He’s learning how to squinch his eyebrows to feign sincerity. I don’t think Sean Hannity bought it.
They leave that part out a lot.
Ping. McCain saying Crist is one of the great leaders of our time is all I need to know...ewe

McCains open-borders outreach director:
The next DHS secretary?; Update: A non-paid volunteer
By Michelle Malkin
January 25, 2008 10:03 AM Update:
Hernandez is a non-paid volunteer, says the McCain campaign. Was he non-paid at the Reform Institute, too? And does McCain share his Mexico First/ Just A Region/Free Flow of People views or not? Ask.
Update: Meet La Familia McCain.

Dr. Juan Hernandez, McCain Hispanic outreach director: We must not only have a free flow of goods and services, but also start working for a free flow of people.
Last month, I received an e-mail from a concerned reader. She wrote:
Hispanic Republicans here in Nevada had a chance to speak by conference to Sen. John McCain and many of us were appalled to learn that his National Director of Hispanic Outreach is none other that Dr. Juan Hernandez, notorious for his open borders stance. How can McCain reconcile the fact that he says he learnt his lesson w/the American people with choosing as his Hispanic Ntl. Dir. someone whose views and interests are so clearly anti-security and not in the interest of the American people or for that matter us legal Hispanic immigrants. Can someone question him directly on this?
Bryan at Hot Air confirmed it. Heres a photo he found on McCains daughters campaign website. The ethnocentrist, border obliteration activist is in tight with the top echelons of the McCain camp. McCain campaign guru Mark MacKinnon is in the foreground. Maybe sending e-mails about their future shamnesty plans with Teddy Kennedy and Lindsay Graham.

Hernandez and I go way back. He had a bad habit of calling you My friend during TV debates while smoothly peddling open-borders propaganda. I cured that bad habit several years ago during a Fox News segment by pointing out that he was not, in fact, my friend.
He is not your friend, either.
Hernandez was a close advisor to Vicente Welcome to North America Fox and headed up a Mexican bureaucracy called the Presidential Office for Mexicans Abroad. It was designed to allow Hernandez to travel across the country, meddling with local, state, and federal immigration enforcement on behalf of millions of illegal aliens in America. He lobbied for illegal alien drivers licenses and Mexico first, defended Mexican bus operators carrying illegal aliens to the USA, and promoted extending banking privileges to illegal aliens.
In an interview on ABC Newss Nightline, Hernandez stated bluntly that he was betting that the Mexican American population in the United States all generations will think Mexico first I want em all to think Mexico first. Heres the audio clip from Nightline, June 7th 2001:
Who has more influence in Florida, this guy trying to make Rush’s prediction come true or Rush?
They are BOTH NUTZO.
Gov. Suntan’s objective imo was to upstage Barak Obama. This GOP narcissist is salivating over a vice presidency. Maybe McCainiac made him some offer.
Mel, McCain, Crist: a trifecta of boobs.
