Charlie save your money and get out of the race. Every poll shows you nothing better than THIRD.

...``The next 10 days are critical for Kendrick Meek because he really has to show Democrats in this state and in Washington in particular that he has a shot, that he's a viable candidate who can win,'' said Republican consultant John Wehrung. ``There's a blinking red light in the corner of Kendrick Meek's eye warning him that Charlie Crist is stealing all his Democrats and he needs to find a way to get them back, like now.''
It may be Florida's first statewide race featuring three serious contenders, but at this stage Republican nominee Marco Rubio, 39, can largely float above the fray while independent Crist, 54, and Democrat Meek, 44, vie to be the main alternative to Rubio. Crist is banking on winning strong support from Democratic voters, largely with a simple message: ``I can win.''


That implies, of course, that Meek can't....

Perhaps Charlie is hoping to help Rubio win Florida, because, he sure isn't going to win.  That should be obvious to him now.  It isn't really a fair race.  Meek is being robbed of his sincere chances with the people of Florida.  It must be frustrating to be a Florida Democrat and Independant right now.

..."Clearly, Governor Crist is no friend to Florida's environment,” (click title to entry - thank you) said Adam Sharon, a spokesman for Meek, on Thursday. “Time and again, lifelong conservative Charlie Crist has proven he is far more interested in lining the pockets of developers than protecting Florida's environment or standing up for middle-class families. Now, the governor is trying to green-wash his terrible environmental record. Kendrick Meek is the only candidate who will stand up to big developers and corporate special interests on behalf of everyday Floridians.”
With Crist siphoning off Democratic voters, the Meek team has hammered the governor from the left since the primary in late August.
