Rick Scott in New TV Ad: 'Charlie Crist Wants You to Hate Me'

The Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) released a new TV spot on Monday defending Gov. Rick Scott from the attacks of former Gov. Charlie Crist, insisting the Democratic candidate only can offer attacks.

"After all these attack ads, Charlie Crist wants you to hate me," Scott says in the ad. "I guess thats all hes got. The race is not about Charlie or me. Its about you and your family. Together were turning Florida around.

Without a record to run on, Charlie Crist wants to make voters hate Rick Scott, said Leslie Dougher, the chairwoman of the RPOF, on Monday. But this election isnt about Rick Scott or Charlie Crist; its about the people of Florida. And under Rick Scott, hundreds of thousands of Floridians have new jobs, the tax burden on Florida families is lighter, tourists from all over the world are flocking to this state once again, and our students are given the resources they need to pursue their version of the American dream. This election is a fight for the future of all Floridians and we cant afford to turn back the clock.
