[QUOTE="diesel96, post: 351159, member: 9859"] Florida Republicans as well as Democrats strongly supported the bill, including McCain's top Sunshine State allies, Gov. and possible VP Canidate Charlie Crist and U.S. Sen. Mel Martinez. But McCain opposed it and, when Bush vetoed it, urged colleagues to sustain the veto. The veto was overridden, and the bill authorized the first significant federal spending for the project. Does that make him wrong, maybe not in your minds since republicans can do no wrong:wink2:, but the concensus says he was by passing legislation. Crist called the passage "one step closer to our goal of restoring the South Florida ecosystem" and thanked the Florida delegation for "tirelessly working to get this legislation to the finish line, without the help of Sen McCain. And now he comes down here, takes a photo op on an air boat ride and tries to smooze the voters that he cares. IMO thats pandering. [/QUOTE]
