Rubio "Gaining Steam," Crist Being "Derailed"

yesterday we told you about a Rasmussen poll that has the political world buzzing today fox their teens Deborah Bowden tells us what the candidates involved have to say about fighting

to be with as governor Charlie Crist signs the bullet train bill in Tampa his own bid for U. S. Senate may

be derailed call number so conservative long shot Marco Rubio gaining steam and now running

neck and neck with the governor at forty three percent but no reaction of the only people I care about a selection day and

%HESITATION it's early I look forward to when all the people get to go Chris shrugged off questions about his campaign but the numbers show his popularity is

now at an all time low Rasmussen poll released first fox thirteen she was only nineteen percent of likely Republican voters view him as very favorable as

a double digit drop since August nd wild Rubio's numbers have

jumped to thirty four percent I always believed even early from this campaign that if we got a chance the more we got our message out there the

more support we would garner I think people want to send people to Washington DC that are going to stand up to an agenda they don't agree with and

offer an alternative former house speaker seized on the poll numbers and again challenge the governor do a debate his

campaign hit a nerve with staunch conservatives alienated by the governor support of the president and

his stimulus bill but Rubio says overcoming the governor's war chest won't be easy so far has raised about one and a half million dollars Chris

has six million I think we're still the underdog I mean I'm running and someone is famous and someone was a lot of money and

that we recognize what a challenge that poses election is still eight months away even so analysts say the farther Chris numbers fall the

harder it maybe to get voters on board and his campaign back on track in Tampa Deborah
