The headline in my e-mailbox makes one’s eyes grow wide:
Former Florida Governor Endorses Rudy Giuliani for President
Holy smokes! What a huge endorsement, and so early! Wow, the Bush family is jumping into the race! What a coup for Rudy to get Jeb Bush to endorse him, that just about wraps up this race, it’s–
Oh, wait. It’s a different former governor of Florida.
The Rudy Giuliani Presidential Committee announced today that former Florida Governor Bob Martinez has endorsed Mayor Rudy Giuliani for President.
Governor Martinez’s career in public service spans more than 40 years, including serving as Mayor of Tampa, Florida and Drug Czar under President George H.W. Bush.
“I am proud to support Mayor Giuliani because he has a proven record of results as Mayor of New York City,” said Governor Martinez. “America is at a critical juncture and we need real leadership in Washington. Mayor Giuliani’s proven record of accomplishment and his 12 Commitments to the American People will be a roadmap for his Presidency.”
“Governor Martinez’s strong commitment to public service is well-respected among Floridians,” said Giuliani’s Florida Campaign Chairman and State Attorney General Bill McCollum. “He understands well the challenges America faces because of his experience in government at the local, state and federal levels, and the need for a leader like Rudy. We appreciate his support for the Mayor.”
Well, I’m sure he’s nice to have on board, too.
