I don’t know how I missed this, but I did. This statement is dated one month ago. I was looking for Smith’s website to tout him after I read that “conservative” candidate Marco Rubio has come out against Arizona’s new immigration law. This is too bad. Smith is far from perfect on the issues. He is a big spender on defense and seems to feels it is important enough to make number one on his list, but he is better than Rubio. And Rubio is definitely better than Crist, but he leans neoconish.
Thankfully conservative Floridians will have an authentic conservative to vote for in the general election, Prof. Marshall DeRosa. Dr. DeRosa’s conservative credentials are impeccable.

I was going to say with a Bob Smith in the race, the opening Rubio provided could have been exploited. But then again what does that say about the Florida GOP these days? After all, Chuck Baldwin is a CP member now and moderates like Crist are leaving. It’s basically all Conservative INC: Pro-immigration, Pro-NASA, Pro-Interventionism.

I think the CP has automatic ballot access in Florida. Chuck Baldwin should run for Gov. next cycle.
