WPLG-TV: Interview with Marco Rubio Part 3

fineness this morning is Marco Rubio the former speaker of the Florida house and now a candidate for the US Senate the Republican

nomination scrupulous and you have very severely criticized governor Chris for campaign

so hard for the seven hundred eighty seven while Florida share of the seven hundred eighty seven billion dollars in

stimulus money but then you have said if I had gotten that money had been the governor I would have spent that sounds like to

doing the best you can with it after it's passed but I said essentially without approval of the very conservative governors like Haley Barbour and

so pale and %HESITATION his opinion about stimulus number one it's a bad issue for him and he he

special in a Republican primary the stimulus is a failure it's very unpopular and I think he wanted to go away and someone to confuse people about it there's a very big
