Florida Governor Charlie Crist won’t win over many of his conservative critics with his
latest move — declaring emphatically that the president’s stimulus has created tens of thousands of jobs in his state and expressing “not one iota” of regret for working with Obama (indeed, hugging him) on the jobs-creating proposal.
Appearing outside the White House on Monday, the Florida Republican Senatorial candidate pushed back against his GOP critics — notably Sen. Scott Brown (R-Mass.) — who have declared that the stimulus has not created one single job in America.
“It is not the case in Florida — we accepted the stimulus money; all of my fellow governors did,” Crist said. “I think it was the responsible and right thing to do for the people and it puts people above politics. In Florida alone, for example, it created or maintained at least 87,000 jobs; 27,000 of those jobs are educators and teachers throughout the state. I dare say what the impact would be throughout the state if those teachers were out of work, unable to put bread on the table of their families. This is necessary and it relates to job creation.”
