Rasmussen: Florida Senate primary is now tied between Rubio and Crist

Topics: Political News and commentaries

Rasmussen reports that Governor Charlie Crist and former state House Speaker Marco Rubio are now tied in the 2010 race for the Republican Senate nomination in Florida.

As Erick Erickson aptly puts it, a bomb has just gone off in Florida. After all, only six months ago, Rubio was in the single digits with Crist safely over 50%:

Charlie Crist is the only candidate the National Republican Senatorial Committee will admit to endorsing. The actually used the word "endorse." Since their endorsement, Crist has seen a top fundraiser indicted for a ponzi scheme, taken every position possible on the Obama stimulus plan, replaced his campaign team, and gone from over fifty percent in the polling to tied with Marco Rubio.

Rubio will win. The Establishment will be defeated. Conservatives will advance and with them freedom.

Conservatives standing their ground and helping the Republican Party get back to its roots is about the only chance our country has of maintaining the rapidly diminishing freedoms Americans continue to see evaporate under the Obama administration. RINOs like Charlie Crist are nothing more than Obama-lite, and Floridians are obviously waking up to the fact that freedom, a free-market economy, and individual liberties cannot be taken lightly and trump having government "control every aspect of our live."
