Robert Kennedy Jr. Backs Charlie Crist for Senate

Having obtained an endorsement from a Shriver in-law on Tuesday when Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger of California backed him, Gov. Charlie Crist announced a Kennedy was supporting his bid without party affiliation for the U.S. Senate.

Robert Kennedy Jr., son of the late U.S. senator and attorney general, endorsed Crist on Wednesday morning. Kennedy has been very active in public affairs in New York, namely as an environmental activist.

I am honored to receive the endorsement of my friend Robert F. Kennedy Jr, wrote Crist on his Twitter account. Thank you for coming down to Florida this morning, Bobby.
