Yesterday, Wolf Blitzer asked Crist whether he regretted endorsing Barack Obama’s stimulus package, given the angry response from conservatives around the country and the opposition it created to his Senate bid. Crist responded by claiming that he never endorsed it at all … forgetting the magic of YouTube:“I didn’t endorse [the stimulus]. I didn’t even have a vote on the darn thing.” Um, Governor, ...

FL SEN: We're Going To Disneyland!
Hotline On Call — Less than two days after Doug Hoffman's (C) defeat in NY-23, conservatives are rallying to a new race -- FL SEN, where Gov. Charlie Crist (R) is facing a rising challenge from ex-state House Speaker Marco Rubio (R) for the GOP primary nod.

Florida Governor Charlie Crist Lied About His Support Of The “Stimulus” Spending Spree
