Republican Sen. Alex Villalobos Endorses Alex Sink for Governor
Categories: Politicks

Villalobos endorsements are more than just middle fingers to the GOP, though. His moderate brand of Republicanism is more in line with Crist's politics than Rubio's. He once worked at the same law firm as Gelber, and both are long-time members of the legislature from Miami-Dade.
Taken with Crist's decision to buck the GOP to run as an independent, and conservative Rick Scott's successful tactic of running to the right of Bill McCollum in the primary, Villalobos' plight over the past few years is indicative of the fact that even in a purple state like Florida, the GOP seems to have little use for moderates these days.
