Rove attacks GOP gubernatorial candidate in Florida for blowing off Bush today
11/06/2006 06:46:00 PM


White House Deputy Chief of Staff Karl Rove expressed frustration Monday over Florida GOP gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist's decision not to appear with President Bush at a rally in Pensacola.

"Let's see how many people show up in Palm Beach on 24 hrs notice versus 8 or 9,000 people in Pensacola," Rove told CNN referring to a Crist rally quickly organized by the campaign after the GOP gubernatorial candidate canceled his appearance with the President.

Roves (sic) comments came even as even as other Senior White House administration officials tried to downplay the cancellation, noting Crist is campaigning in more moderate regions of the state as he tries to pick up independent voters on the final day of his campaign.

"We were invited by Crist and had been working with them on this, but his campaign made a late decision that they had opportunities in more contested areas of the state," a Senior White House official told CNN Monday."

Let's review. In Florida, the GOP's candidate for Governor, Charlie Crist, invited the leader of the nation and his party, George Bush, to campaign for him. Bush said yes. The entire machinery of moving the President of the United States, no small undertaking, made all the necessary plans to get the President and his massive entourage to Florida for the event. Then Crist threw a hissy fit, said never mind, and blew off the President like some kind of cheap date.

8. No small under taking indeed. They shut down E470 in Colorado.
After sitting in backed up traffic from accidents for two hours, the girl child exited onto E470 from I25 thinking she would have clear sailing. Oh, no. At the second toll stop a CHP car pulled in front of her as she was talking with the toll booth guy. They shut down the highway for either Cheney or Bush. She said the CHP were driving in front of them after they were allowed to "proceed" and kept their speed down to about 30mph. I think it was Cheney, but the toll booth guy told the girl child he thought it was it was George. Either way it took her way more than 2 1/2 more hours to come home. These people have no conscience, no ethics, no consideration for the American people..
