seems that there are gop defectors spoiling mittens lines
Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell dismissed former Florida GOP Governor Charlie Crist's endorsement of Obama this morning on "This Week," calling it just one more vote for the president in the Sunshine State.
"Governor Crist's endorsement adds one more vote in Florida and that's it," said McDonnell, chair of the Republican Platform Committee. "He's wrong on about every other point."
Crist, now an independent, endorsed President Obama and took a shot at the GOP today in the Tampa Bay Times.
"[A]n element of their party has pitched so far to the extreme right on issues important to women, immigrants, seniors and students that they've proven incapable of governing for the people. Look no further than the inclusion of the Akin amendment in the Republican Party platform, which bans abortion, even for rape victims," he wrote.
