Hasner- LeMieux is Charlie Crist’s “Junior Partner”

October 1, 2011

by Javier Manjarres

U.S. Senate candidate Adam Hasner, the recent winner of the CPAC-FL Republican Senate primary straw poll, sat down with the Shark Tank to talk about the state of his campaign as well as the importance of winning a Republican-activist driven straw poll.  Hasner had some interesting comments after I asked him about former Senator George LeMieux’s claim that he has always supported Senator Marco Rubio.  Hasner took issue with LeMieux’s remarks and added some rather strong rhetoric that counters LeMieux’s claim.  Prior to the Presidency 5 and CPAC-FL events, Senator LeMieux declined the Shark Tank’s request for an interview and opted to only interview with NewsMax, who had partnered up with the Shark Tank to conduct interviews throughout the conference.

“Charlie called George(LeMieux) his junior partner…..Charlie Crist, George LeMieux and others in that camp of the party,were talking about moving to the center, they were talking about more moderation, and that the best way for Republicans to win was to be more like Democrats.”

    It was such fun being Charlie Crist’s “Maestro” ! And then having that $10,000.00 per month contract with Jim Greer’s RPOF for “consulting”: what were you “consulting” about” Charlie’s career? RPOF fundraising? Is Mrs. Greer right and it WAS ALL your idea?. You think you are going to continue feeding at the public trough and leeching off the Republicans? NOT! GeorgeLeMieux smells more like Pepe LePew!

    LEMIEUX = CHARLIE CRIST! Go Hasner!

    Javier, I so enjoy your news posting and usually agree with you, but I cannot do that with your endorsement of Hasner.

    As someone who has reached those golden years I am absolutely tired of these lawyers graduating from law school, pitching a job for a couple of years and then running for office and spending their life there – writing 2500 page bills that could be said in 500 to confuse anyone reading them including the very people they are supposed to affect.

    Hasner needs to try and get an every day job and find out what the real world is really about. Ordinary people ask him a question and his rsponse is a politcially corrct one. We were at Presidency 5/CPAC and ask him a question at the Tea Party room at the Rosen and he gave a polticial junk response that left the room filled with people shaking their heads. McCalister followed him and was ask the very same question and answered everyone there with a direct, concise answer.

    This country no longer needs any more career politicians such as Hasner, Cannon, Harrydopeylus and the likes who want to make their life’s work living off the american people but then ignoring their wishes and wants – forgetting who pays their salaries!

    The numbers are closing – I have not made my decision yet but it will not be for a career politician!

    I wouldn’t vote for LeMieux if he were the ONLY candidate running in the race in ALL parties! Voting for him is like voting for turncoat Christ!

    Sorry, but chain gang charlie is a total farce and he proved it when thefirst thing he did in office was try to give voting rights back to convicted felons. Then he went on to confuse me about which party he represented. I sent him an e-mail earlt in his term that I would work for his defeat in 4 years and I didn’t have to wait that long. LOL

    George ” went to bed with charlie” when he accepted the Senate Office and now he has the career bug. Sorry Charlie eeeerrr George!

    I liked LeMieux when he was our Senator. He promised he would not run for reelection against Crist and he did not. I see a number of people who are trying to tar LeMieux with the Charlie Crist brush, but they need to remember that Crist was the one who moved when he was trying to find a way to win the Senate race. LeMieux did not move and has not moved. He is, to me a known quantity and I fully expect I will vote for him in the primary.

    When he left office, I wrote him and asked him to run against Nelson. Now that he is, I will support im.

    It is clear that you, at the shark tank did not attend P5 or the Cpac. the only Canidate who received a standing ovation was McCalister. I have one one wish. Lets set up some debates, Tea Party Manatee, will be glade to Set up one of them.

    That will let the voters of Florida ask the questions, and hear the Answers. I for one am tired of the media or political pundents, telling the voter how to think. I want to see those who have been in office stand on their records. Those who have not held office tells us why they fell qualified to hold such an important office.

    I do not want exgovernors or special intrests telling us how to vote. The people of Florida can pick their own winners. We did it with Scott, and Rubio. We were told they were not good enough. I guess we thought differently.
