		<description>Austin, 

Smith may end up being a major factor.  As a fact he has the most experience of any candidate in the race, has the most consistently conservative voting record in the race, and is a great campaigner.  Rubio is the hot candidate now and he is good.  But as people see Smith is serious and look at his record and see his is not just some politician I think they will gravitate towards him.</description>

		<description>We must support true conservatives, like Marco Rubio, if we are to defeat Obama&#039;s liberal agenda.  It is amazing that Charlie Crist is running radio ads touting his so called conservative record after he publically endorsed Obama&#039;s stimulus plan, supports cap and trade, and appointed a liberal democrat to the Florida Supreme Court.</description>

		<description>My name is Alexander Andrew Snitker. I am running as a candidate for the United States Senate in 2010 for the State of Florida. I am a Libertarian candidate. I believe that the 2 party system has failed us as a country and we need citizens-legislators in Washington to put us back on track for liberty and prosperity for all Americans. 
I am sure that you can agree that most of the elected officials are no longer listening to the people. The time has come to make your voices heard. We will have a unique opportunity here in the state of Florida to show the rest of the country that a candidate with ideas who cannot be bought by special interests can WIN. 
Log onto my website www.snitker2010.com and read over my ideas. If you agree with me then pass this information to everyone you know. For far too long we have been told that a 3rd party candidate cannot win. Fortunately that decision is not up to them. IT IS UP TO YOU.

		<description>&quot;It’s been a rough couple of days for the Charlie Crist campaign with new polls from Rasmussen Reports and Quinnipiac University showing the Governor’s lead over his main challenger dropping from about 30% to 15%.&quot;

We&#039;ve taken note of Rubio&#039;s sharp rise and Crist&#039;s sharp decline.  We noted that the poll was done by a group that just endorsed Crist.  In the past we&#039;ve noted Rubio&#039;s numerous straw poll wins.  

Is Smith a total non-factor?  Probably.  Although, as someone told me, Marco also started out at 3% in the polls.  And even if he doesn&#039;t gain traction, he&#039;s still drawing votes and potentially impacting the race -- so he&#039;s relevant to mention.

Rubio has clearly made this into a competitive race.</description>

		<description>Charlie Crist has no shame. This poll is an absolute joke.

The PBA endorses him then come out with a poll to downplay the importance of the chamber poll. 

Well, guess what? First comes the Chamber poll showing Rubio gaining ground in a big way. Then comes Quinnipiac showing Rubio gaining ground in a big way. Then comes the Rasmussen poll showing Rubio gaining ground in a big way...and likely to beat Meek by 15 points. 

Crist is toast. We still have 10 months to go befoer the primary, too. Bye Bye, Charlie.</description>

		<description>Rubio has nowhere to go but up. 

As for REC polls, if the REC straw polls meant anything, Romney would have won FL in a walk.</description>
