Head of Seniors Group: Charlie Crist 'A Clear and Present Danger'

Jim Martin, the chairman of 60 Plus Association, a national conservative seniors group with 800,000 members in the Sunshine State, jabbed Crist over seniors' issues on Friday.

"By his own words, Charlie Crist thinks that seniors losing their doctors under Medicare Advantage, which was slashed by $300 billion to fund Obamacare, is 'great,' Martin said. He thinks 300,000 Floridians having their health plans canceled by Florida Blue due to Obamacare is just fine. You know what Florida seniors think is great? A governor not named Charlie Crist.

Sending Charlie Crist back to the governor's mansion would be hazardous for Florida seniors, he added. Obamacare is causing devastation for seniors who are losing their doctors, losing their Medicare Advantage benefits and seeing their premiums increase yet Crist, in his own words, thinks all of this is great. And after he raised taxes on Floridas seniors and their families by $2.2 billion, Crist wont rule out raising taxes again. Governor Scott has lowered the cost-of-living and improved the quality of life for retirees who live in the Sunshine State, and we cant afford to go back.

"Charlie Crist remains a 'clear and present danger' to Florida seniors if he again comes anywhere near the governor's mansion, said Martin. He's proven himself a shameless opportunist willing to switch teams and switch positions to keep his name in the spotlight and his face on TV. He doesn't know the facts about the devastation that Obamacare is causing Florida seniors and he can't tell the truth about his own flip-flopping positions on the issues."
