Marco Rubio On "Fox & Friends" On First Day of General Election Campaign

nndb quarterback Florida is poised now for an exciting new members showdown with

Republican Marco Rubio independent Charlie Crist and Democrat Kendrick meek battling it out in a three way faceoff

for Florida's U. S. Senate seat you heard from congressman Nick just a couple minutes ago now to the winner of last night Republican

primary Jack has now Senate nominee Marco Rubio the money was through the good morning guys that I remember I

you and Charlie Cray share positions and you share the same sort of record what's your response to well

I think conservatism be taken aback by the notion that Charlie Crist is a conservative but the reality is that this race is me running against him supporters of

the direction that Washington's taking the United States of America I'm in this race because I think Washington is wrong I think both parties are to blame quite frankly for this but we've

never seen anything like the last eighteen months the direction that Washington DC in the leadership in Washington is taking America is

going to rob us of our exceptionalism that's why I got in this race eighteen months ago I'm still the only one running that's offering an alternative to the direction Washington is taking a lot

sure what Charlie Crist is is going to do for example came and said I want to ban all offshore drilling next thing you know he's got a key Obama

aid as one of his chief aide what do you expect in terms of sizing up your poem well let me tell you that's one of the biggest problems we have in Washington today our

they refuse to offer any concrete public policy and then they hide under this mantle of modern or it's just not being a moderate that's being an opportunist that's

what I expect to see continuing this campaign but we already have too many people like that in Washington here's the bottom line I

am running against to supporters of the Obama agenda people like the direction Washington's taking America they should vote for Kendrick meek or Charlie crap but

mean on the one running that's going to do that you know what Marco that's on that would be a really good political ad and are

you going to in November take a lot of money I have read that you got about four point five million dollars in the bank right now but Charlie Crist is got eight

well a lot of it raised when he was still a Republican and there's some people down in Florida who are upset because they

I think that's becoming starkly apparent to voters here in Florida we already have too many people like that by the way in Washington it's

one of the reasons why nothing ever gets fixed why nothing ever positive happens from that city but it is the bottom line we're going to have all the resource and

I encourage people to get involved in our Alexian across the country that are watching this program if they want the next US senator from Florida to

be someone that will stand up to this agenda coming from Washington and offer a clear alternative that's what our campaigns about were the only ones offering Mr

regret what you Floridians not know about you that would surprise them this morning yet gives a scope %HESITATION

yeah although I don't function well in three hours dnmt yeah there's not enough human human

is my chance to pay some of that back to public service I hope I get the chance to do that alright we'll Marco Rubio luxurious this morning from Florida congradulations on your land

slide yesterday now next up November
