McCollum Fences with Immigration after Flip Flop
Bill McCollum, the Florida attorney general running for governor, did a 180 on the Arizona immigration bill. He seen the polls and changed his mind!
By coming out in favor of the law, McCollum joined U.S. Senate contender Marco Rubio in abandoning his previous opposition to the toughest crackdown on illegal immigration in the nation. Both have said they changed positions in light of amendments that aimed to outlaw ethnic and racial profiling by the police.
''I support Arizona's law as amended, and if the federal government fails to secure our borders and solve the problem of illegal immigration, I would support a similar law for Florida,'' McCollum said in a statement Thursday.
Gee, I wonder why he did that?
McCollum's flip-flop comes days after a recent poll showed him losing ground to an unexpected and well-financed Republican rival, Rick Scott, who backs the Arizona law. After spending at least $4.7 million on a statewide television blitz, the little-known former healthcare executive is capturing 24 percent of the Republican vote, according to a Mason-Dixon poll. McCollum, who has been in politics for two decades, received 38 percent in the survey.
This country has laws and as top law man in Fl, McCollum has to serve. He thinks he can do as he wants, a vote for McCollum is a vote for more illegal activity at the border. We neede to rid our Country of career politicians with arrogance like his.
