LOL. Brown pretty much didn't start campaigning until Labor Day, while Whitman blanketed the state with ads B4, during, and after the primary. She's going nowhere but down, from now on. I think they debate tomorrow night.

This was unexpected....... "A day after a statewide poll showed he was losing support among Democrats, independent Gov. Charlie Crist's bid for the U.S. Senate got a boost Sunday from a former Democratic congressman who is a favorite son, particularly among politically active South Florida Jewish retirees. Threading his way through sign-waving critics who labeled him a turncoat, former U.S. Rep. Robert Wexler said he never expected to endorse a onetime Republican stalwart against his party's candidate and probably never would again. "There is a special time in which elected officials have to put country before party, and this is one of those times," the seven-term congressman told a crowd of his former constituents at Century Village west of Boca Raton. "I am here to endorse Gov. Charlie Crist because he has earned it. He has truly earned it." While both Wexler and Crist were greeted with warm applause by the predominantly Democratic audience of about 500 retirees, not all were swayed by - or happy about - Wexler's support for the governor over the Democratic candidate, U.S. Rep. Kendrick Meek."
