Another Anonymous Internet Attack Out of the Florida GOP’s Offices


One anonymous internet attack out of the offices of the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) against the Rubio team is a bit much. But two?

There has been another one.

Last time, Rich Heffley, one of Charlie Crist’s top guys and on the payroll of the RPOF, orchestrated an entire attack against Marco Rubio online, trying to be anonymous, that came complete with a Hitler video attacking Charlie Crist so, you know, they could say Rubio was behind the Hitler attack.

This time, Republican Party field operations director Tim Nungesser created a Twitter account posing as Brevard County GOP Chairman Jason Steele. Nungesser then sent out a bunch of tweets making Steele, a recovering alcoholic, look like he was drinking again, harassing others, etc.

Why?

Because Brevard County GOP Chairman Jason Steele is backing Marco Rubio.

Two anonymous internet attacks against the Rubio team all coming from one office building — that of the Florida GOP’s headquarters — may be coincidence, but a coincidence that suggests the RPOF is wholly in the tank for one side in a primary and in the tank enough to have created an internal atmosphere thoroughly hostile to its very own members who don’t toe the party line.

Which Florida Republican leader will the Florida GOP attack next? Jeb?

Ok, so Nungesser was fired

He wasn’t the problem. We need to know how high up in the Florida GOP establishment this scheme was hatched, or approved.

Or, harkening back to some dark political days of the past, what did Crist know, and when did he know it?

A political party cannot be all things to all people.
It must represent certain fundamental beliefs which must not be compromised to political expediency, or simply to swell its numbers.
Ronald Reagan

What the heck is going on in the Florida GOP?

How can we rid ourselves of unethical Democrats when we’re having to spend so much time trying to weed out unethical Republicans? If this is the type of people surrounding Charlie Crist, he needs to be dumped. Let’s start sending our money and support to Marco Rubio ASAP. The snake needs to be cut off at the head right now.

 

Principle Centered Leadership

Read Chesterton in New Improved Jersey Thursday, November 5th at 11:33AM EST (link)

I had the opportunity to take corporate leadership training directly from the author of the “7 Habits” series and “Principle Centered Leadership. One principle that I still manage to keep with me like a favorite pocket knife is called the “Circle of Influence.” Simply stated, if you are not in control of the responsibilities and duties within your immediate reach, you will be wholly ineffective trying to exercise control outside of your reach - causing your real circle of influence to shrink. Conversely, taking care of the business at hand will naturally grow your circle of influence. Twelve Step recovery programs long ago boiled the principle down to one line: “First things first.”

By the above description of functional/disfunctional behavior, which do you thingk the GOP in general has been exercising?

“Nature is not our mother: Nature is our sister. We can be proud of her beauty, since we have the same father; but she has no authority over us; we have to admire, but not to imitate.” - G. K. Chesterton, “Orthodoxy,” Chapter VIII.

and are so inclined, please post on Gov. Crist’s page, asking who is behind the hitler video and who is behind truthaboutrubio.com

 

You've got these two attacks coupled with the Democrats posing as the Dagget campaign trying to convince Republicans to vote for Dagett...

This is why both parties are in trouble with voters because of the subterfuge and absolute dishonesty they both engage in!

Work for Rubio

Everyone who considers themselves a common sense conservative in the Florida area should consider donating time to the Rubio campaign, and do what they can to make this primary a laugher before it begins. Let’s burn Charlie Crisp!

He’s just way overzealous in promoting his site.

But he’s on our side, so I’ll give him every chance to hang himself.

What do Charlie's guys think of this?

Crist, by standing near Obama, was doped. He got an amnesia.

Rod_Patrick Thursday, November 5th at 7:04PM EST (link)

He didn’t remember anything. Let’s spare him , please.

However,

RUBIO FOR SENATOR!

Hmmm … sounds better, right? BWA HA HA HA!

 
 

Only If...

Which Florida Republican leader will the Florida GOP attack next? Jeb?

Only if he comes out for Marco Rubio.

 

At this stage...

RedBeard Thursday, November 5th at 1:12PM EST (link)

…in the defense of our republic, I’m inclined to give the benefit of the doubt to anyone working for a Rubio win, even a guy who gets a bit overexuberant from time to time.

The bow-shot from Neil seems adequate at this point.

The Crist tea, is falling apart at the seams.

nelsa Thursday, November 5th at 4:06PM EST (link)

I guess if you think of it Crist never really had to fight very hard to win a race.

Now things are different and Marco Rubio showing the state what a true conservative is compared to a RINO like Crist.

izoneguy posted the video of Crist denying he supported Obama’s Stimulus Package.

Rubio responsed quickly today with a response in the form of campaign ad.
Here it is along with the whole story.
Crist voted FOR the stimulus before he voted AGAINST It

Why would they lodge a complaint against the Crist campaign

when from what I’m reading that it was the Fla. GOP that did the dirt deeds?

for bringing the roaches into the sunlight and of course that lady who is tired of the GOP acting as KINGMAKERS instead of allowing We The People to decide who WE want…which is exactly what I said over there :)
