Bill Clinton Tries to Talk a Qualified Minority Into Quitting

In favor of a rich white (or orange) guy.  If any Republican did this he'd be called "racist" in a New York minute:

Bill Clinton sought to persuade Rep. Kendrick Meek to drop out of the race for Senate during a trip to Florida last week — and nearly succeeded.

Meek agreed — twice — to drop out and endorse Gov. Charlie Crist’s independent bid in a last-ditch effort to stop Marco Rubio, the Republican nominee who stands on the cusp of national stardom.

Meek, a staunch Clinton ally from Miami, has failed to broaden his appeal around the state and is mired in third place in most public polls, with a survey today showing him with just 15 percent of the vote. His withdrawal, polls suggest, would throw core Democratic voters to the moderate governor, rocking a complicated three-way contest and likely throwing the election to Crist.

The last poll I saw showed Rubio over 50% which means even if all of Crist and Meek's voters got together they'd still lose.

This also proves the theory that should Crist win he'd caucus with the Democrats. That fix was already in.

UPDATE:  Crist advisor says he'd caucus with Democrats.  I saw that coming months ago.
