Several weeks back, the Shark Tank teased the possibility that Governor Mitt Romney could be endorsing  U.S. Senate candidate Marco Rubio over Governor Charlie Crist (Romney to endorse Rubio…maybe).  Last Friday, this endorsement was leaked to the press, and the formal announcement came today in Tampa.

During the taping of the Hannity show at the 2010 SRLC in New Orleans, I bumped into my ol’ friend RNC Chairman Michael Steele. I first met the Chairman back in January of 2009 when he came to Miami to visit and promote the RNC to friends and supporters. We spoke about several things including [...]

Conservative Republican candidate Allen West, running in Florida Congressional District 22, has been under heavy criticism from the liberal wing of the Democrat Party over statements he has made regarding Radical Islam and the Democrat leadership in Washington, D.C.  West has become one of the most popular Republicans in the country, and he is looking [...]
