What's wrong with a quick man-hug?  Nothing, unless you are embracing the president who is leading the parade towards socialist liberalism,  throwing away billions away, like Mardi Gras beads, on new government programs that Florida Republican hate.

A newswire photo of Crist hugging Obama similar to this Vigilocanis manipulated cartoon photo is causing Gov. Charlie Crist problems in Florida. The real one was taken when Obama came to Florida touting his Stimulus program at a time when congressional Republicans were fighting the government boondoggle tooth and nail.

Fiscally conservative Republicans do not cotton to this kind of Judas like behavior.  They do not believe that the ends justifies the means.

Former Speaker of the Florida House, Marco Rubio, although a relatively unknown outside of south Florida0, will cause Gov. Crist problems in next year's Senate primary. Rubio has already cut Crist 40 point lead to 15 points according to recent polls.

Rubio's strong low tax, pro-life, restrictive state spending leadership appeals to Jeb Bush conservatives.

Vigilocanis predicts that true conservative Rubio will defeat Crist next year.  Crist's support of the Obama Stimulus package and subsequent embrace will doom the less conservative, though popular with Democrats, Crist.
