Crist is a finger-in-the-wind starry-eyed populist who wants everybody to like him. One of his first events as Governor was to host Gov. Ahnold and Robert Kennedy Jr. to promote global warming alarm.

Crist is back on the smearing: slush fund, misappropriation of funds, etc.

[Sort of reminds me of the recent Ryan v Obama conflab. Rubio turns the discussion, again, to the issues.]

Crist is coming across as a vile mean man. Rubio just nailed him again on the personal attacks. Rubio looks like a winner and is acting like a winner.

Florida poll: Obama, Democrats to pay political price for healthcare reform
BY MARC CAPUTO
mcaputo@miamiherald.com
TALLAHASSEE — Florida voters dislike the new health reform law so much that President Obama and the state’s top Democrat, U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, are paying a hefty political price, according to a new survey and analysis by Mason-Dixon Polling & Research.

Only 34 percent of Florida voters support the new law while 54 percent are opposed — well outside of the 4 percent error-margin for the poll of 625 registered voters.

Opposition is even stronger among two crucial voting blocs in Florida: voters older than 65 and voters with no party affiliation. Seniors disfavor the bill by a 65-25 percent margin, while independent voters oppose the law 62-34.

The poll also shows that, by a 15 percentage-point margin, more Floridians have a more negative than positive view of Obama. And they oppose his so-called cap-and-trade global warming legislation as well as the new healthcare law.

The ``eye-popping’’ numbers in the poll were mainly dealing with health care, seniors and Sen. Nelson, Mason-Dixon pollster Brad Coker said. He said elder voters were once a reliable base of support for Sen. Nelson, but no more.

``The only saving grace for Bill Nelson is that his election is in 2012 and some of the anger might die down by then,’’ Coker said. ``But he probably can’t escape the damage completely.’’

The percentage of voters who have an unfavorable opinion of Nelson — 34 percent — is almost even with those with a favorable view of him. Since his 2006 re-election, Nelson’s popularity has nose-dived 18 percentage points, the poll shows.

Because Florida is such a crucial swing state with so many seniors, Nelson’s troubles are a shot across the bow for Democrats everywhere, Coker said. The poll shows Nelson would lose to Republicans in theoretical match-ups against former Gov. Jeb Bush, Gov. Charlie Crist and his current U.S. Senate opponent Marco Rubio.

``If Bill Nelson’s getting hurt by this, you can imagine what damage there is to other Democrats across the country,’’ Coker said.

Crist is the poster boy for the empty drum political leadership in the GOP. He has no core principles. It is all about getting elected. He offers no solutions.

Next up immigration. This will be another major issue in FL. From what I have read, Rubio is good on the issue. Look for Crist to pander and obfuscate.

Crist wants to close the border.

[What about Florida? IIRC, it does NOT actually have a border with a foreign country [i.e., Mexico]. What did Crist, as governor, do to reduce illegals entering Florida?]
