MIAMI GARDENS, FLA. - The Kendrick Meek for Florida campaign released the following statement regarding today's arrest of Jim Greer, Governor Charlie Crist's handpicked chairman of the Republican Party of Florida:
"Governor Crist is trying to walk away from his Republican past, but that past will forever haunt him, especially on days like today. The governor expects a free pass and will claim ignorance and innocence, but those statements will not stand. It was Governor Crist who handpicked Jim Greer to lead his Republican Party, and it was Charlie Crist who stood by his fellow Republican Jim Greer until the bitter end. No amount of Crist revisionist history can whitewash that truth. Speaker Marco Rubio was a beneficiary of this Republican excess, as were many members of the party's leadership. Today is a further reminder that after a decade plus of Republican rule and mismanagement of our state, it is time to close the book on the Crist-reign and elect strong Democrats like Kendrick Meek to lead Florida," said Adam Sharon, Kendrick Meek for Florida communications director.
