$50,000 from a political group run by Republican fundraiser Alan Mendelsohn, a Broward County eye doctor indicted last year on corruption charges, who has also donated to Crist.

Small part of the story overlooked by everyone... but will come back to bite either Crist or Rubio in the general election.

Ponzi Scheme could sink Crist AND Rubio

Mendelsohn raised more than a half-million dollars from Mutual Benefits in 2003 to finance the hiring of a dozen lobbyists and make contributions to lawmakers to stop legislation that would have tightened regulations on the so-called viatical industry. The industry sold life insurance policies of people dying of AIDS and other diseases.

I recommend FReepers take a good hard look at Bob Smith, who is running for the Senate seat as well. He might be too conservative to win... but he's got a proven record and has fought for everything FReepers stand for.

I don't see Rubio mentioned in that article and the accusations against Christ were not substantiated?


So that along with the fact that at this stage of the game "Bob Smith", is no where on the radar screen, makes your comment dubious?
