Another notch for Marco

Republican South Carolina Senator Jim Demint endorses Marco Rubio for Florida's US Senate seat:

Once there was a poor farmer who wanted to become fabulously rich in the diamond trade. He deserted his farmland and traveled the world looking for diamonds until he was too old to look anymore. He returned home penniless, only to discover that the fields around his home were thick with flawless diamonds as big as your fist.

The poor guy’s fortune had been right under his nose, but he had wasted his whole life looking everywhere but in his own backyard.

That old story came back to me a few weeks ago when I met Marco Rubio. He’s the 38-year old former speaker of the Florida House of Representatives running for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Mel Martinez next year. Rubio is the most impressive conservative leader I have met in a long time, a natural leader with an inspiring personal story and an even more inspiring vision for Florida and America.

He is at once a principled conservative and an accomplished legislator with a proven record of building broad coalitions to champion fiscal discipline, economic growth, and the American values of family, faith, and freedom.

Read the rest, right here.

As you know, Marco is running against Charlie Crist in the primary and Chummie Charlie has a heck of a lot of special interest cash just laying around, waiting to be used. So, please consider donating a few bucks to Marco's Campaign, right here.

    Rubio is awakening a lot of conservatives across the country. While the DC elites and Republican party leaders whine a few like Rubio are willing to take a stand. I fully support this fine young man.

    It's not just that Crist is a lousy option, but Rubio looks mighty good on his own. He seems to be thre real deal, and Crist strikes me as so patently phony that he might as well be a three-dollar bill. It's amazing how far some people can get in politics. Actually, it's deeply disturbing, because that means that lots of voters are either stupid or worse.

    Besides contributing, let's put Marco on our prayer lists; we know he's in for rabid attacks and needs that kind of support.

    I'm not sure but I think the conservative "America's Independent Party" endorses him.

    I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR THAT OBAMA LOVEN LIBERAL CHARLIE CRIST!WHEN I SAW GOV.CRIST WITH OBAMA HUGGING ON TV I JUST WAS SO SICK! I THEN DID SOME MORE RESEARCH ON CRIST AND I CANT BELIEVE HE IS SO DAME LIBERAL! MY VOTE IS WITH MARCO RUBIO! THIS MAN IS A TRUE CONSERVATIVE AND I THINK HE CAN BRING A LOT OF HISPANIC'S TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND MARCO COULD BE THE FIRST HISPANIC PRESIDENT AND BEAT OBAMA IN 2012! THAT'S WHY IT'S SO IMPORTANT TO BEAT GOV.CRIST FIRST! GO TO http://WWW.MARCORUBIO.COM AND DONATE CRIST OUT!!!!!! "VIVA RUBIO!" PS...CUBAN COMMUNITY RISE UP!!
