Governor Charlie Crist is catching heat for scaling back campaign efforts for Republican Presidential Nominee John McCain.

He also says he?s still campaigning hard for the Republican nominee.<\/p>\n

I?m honored to have the opportunity to have worked with him, to campaign with him and to have endorsed him in the Florida Primary. I know he?s a great American hero. He?s a great leader. He?s a great United States Senator and he?ll be a great president,? said Crist. <\/p>\n

Last week Crist was on the campaign trail with McCain in Florida. He has also toured parts of the state with Vice Presidential nominee Sarah Palin. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
