Exclusive: Crist Charges Rubio "Turned his Back" on Hispanic Family

Fox News:

In a bruising Senate debate, independent candidate Gov. Charlie Crist brought up that Republican Marco Rubio has "turned his back" on his Hispanic family.

Crist threw the jab citing a newspaper article about Rubio's stance on immigration. The claim came during a televised between Florida state Speaker Rubio, Crist, and Democratic Rep. Kendrick Meek, set to air on the FOX Tampa affiliate WTVT at 6:30pm ET Friday.

"These are their [the newspaper's] words, not mine speaker, that you have turned your back on your Hispanic family, and they think that is inexcusable," Crist said.

Rubio, who is of Cuban heritage but was born in Florida, didn't take it that way and fired back, "We're all used to hard knock politics but that's quite frankly governor, offensive and outrageous for you to talk about me turning my back on my Hispanic family. It wasn't me, it was LaGaceta talking about it, a great newspaper. You've already attacked the congressman's [Meek] mom in an ad and now you're attacking my family."

Rubio is currently in a double-digit lead ahead of both Crist and Meek. Republicans are feeling even more confident about Rubio's chances that they've pulled a $4 million ad buy planned and will use the money in bluer states.
