Marco Rubio on 'The Joe Scarborough Radio Show'

Marco Rubio former speaker of the house the Florida house of representatives now running against Charlie Crist until

recently one of the more popular governor in the history of the state of Florida but now Charlie Crist is in it for fight

of his political life against speaker Rubio staggering via thanks for being with us on the just covers up my

pleasure thank you probably headed by way headed for a two year old stomping grounds there northwest Florida that's also made is my story sounds familiar to you what

is your story sounds like a pretty interesting and ran her that this morning and give me an outline of a familiar with it and

we've got a lot of times friends all familiar with that story but %HESITATION but absolutely whether this is the national Republican Party look whether going up to New York twenty three right now endorsing

established folks about this kind of thing but in my mind I said earlier today on the TV show is that this country has a Democratic Party and Americans who agree with that view of government have

an optional ready to vote for the rest of Americans I think is the majority of Americans who don't view government

frankly when when we are about those things that's what Republicans women when they're about anything else is when Republicans lose but a bit more why

wasn't if you talk to the national Republican Party where they against you you know I think it's largely a function early two

future for Republicans to be more %HESITATION moderate more middle of the road that the country has fundamentally changed in that Obama was the beginning of the fundamental change in the way Americans view of government I

think that's part of it I think the other part of it is the it to be quite Frank is pragmatic is this idea of the Charlie considering all this money on his own so they would need to spend any money in Florida introduce

those resources elsewhere well certainly can raise hell of a lot of money unity they can't but here's the deal I think so can we especially we have the support of the fabless individuals and we have the help

of the party unified behind us look I don't think there's any Democrat running for the US Senate in Florida that's unbeatable in fact Rasmussen

more than Charlie Crist of IBM by sixteen point so and that's the second twelve they do that shows that so I

think that argument is flawed and that has been disproven with the staff we we when you're talking to a Florida as a

former speaker of the house Marco Rubio he is running against governor Charlie Crist with U. S. Senate next year and

a hill worth dying on have you gotten a lot of a lot of conservative support from across America as this is turning into a national referendum I

don't think that she said the party established you know I think it takes time and I really don't want to be a race against the party's Dallas and I wanted to be although I think that's what motivates some people but I certainly wanted to be a race we can prove that

the parties that was trying to kill you yeah I understand but look at the bottom of our so I think it does a disservice to folks like Jim demands and center

and off and others who are supporting us Dick Armey you know congressman Jeff Miller from I think is your successor and others who have lined up behind me and

I think to some extent there of course they're they're you know they're going to get there going to get the party in that regard but but the reality of it is that I

was some people you're unhappy with the establishment whatever the establishment may be in any given situation look at anyone given

you establishment let's let's redefine our parties are once again becomes a consistent voice for Americans do not believe the government should

be picking winners and losers on our economic lives where we're talking the speaker Marco Rubio running against Charlie Crist governor Charlie Crist I
