Gathering a head of steam…


hopefully.

Hat tip to the Weekly Standard Blog.

Here’s the cover of the latest National Review…

Marco’s got a real shot, from John J. Miller’s cover story…

The primary is closed, which means that only registered Republicans can participate. Turnout probably will be low, which increases the importance of conservative activists. Rubio also has started to attract national attention. Sen. Jim DeMint of South Carolina and former presidential candidate Mike Huckabee have en­dorsed him. Interestingly, Jeb Bush has remained quiet, fueling speculation that he might back Rubio if the race is close next summer. His son, Jeb Bush Jr., is a confirmed Rubio supporter.

Finally I might get to say something nice about a Bush.

The biggest hitch right now is money. According to the article Crist has over $4MM and Marco has about $340,000. You can help Marco here!

I have to give Mike Huckabee some credit here (and you know how much THAT hurts), he seems to be all-in for Marco. He’s supporting him through Huck PAC and several state Huckabee organizations are actively supporting him as well.

Where’s Sarah Palin? Potentially she could make a big difference for Marco in both fund raising and in name recognition in Florida. I hope she hops on this train, and soon.

One of the highlights of the RedState gathering was getting to meet Marco Rubio. He’s a dynamic speaker and a solid unapologetic conservative. This National Review cover should help him steamroll Crist.

We need Marco and people like him to WIN in these important primaries. But getting those victories requires MONEY. I’ve already sent him money and urge everyone else to send whatever they can too! Even $20 will help.

He has my full support . I’ve been telling everyone I know to check out his website, so I’m already campaigning for him. I will use the “contact” on his website to find out how I can do more. I’m willing to print flyers and pass them out. I’m willing to carry signs (the homemade kind.) We need him in Florida to at least counter Bill Nelson (whom I will actively campaign AGAINST in 2012.) And we certainly can’t afford any more of crossover crist!
