Some Democrats raising money for GOP candidate (FL Governor)

[Freddie Stubbs]

A member of the inner circle of former Democratic governor candidate Rod Smith is starting a committee to raise money -- for Republican gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist.

Loyalists to former Democratic governor candidate Rod Smith, refusing to get behind party nominee Jim Davis, said Monday they are setting up a fundraising committee for the Republican candidate for governor.

The new formed Coalition for Bipartisan Progress puts a dent in today's demonstration of Democratic unity, in which Davis will rally with Smith for the first time since winning the Sept. 5 primary. The GOP nominee, Charlie Crist, campaigned with his primary rival just two days after the election.

The new committee could hurt Davis more than help Crist, who boasts a substantial fundraising edge. Last week, Crist picked up $1.2 million, while Davis collected $148,000.

The group is registered with the state as an ''electioneering communications organization,'' or ECO, which can collect ''soft'' money not limited under state law. The ECO can run ads that promote Crist -- coordinated with his campaign -- or tear down Davis.

from the article:
>>Smith said in a telephone interview that he was disappointed some of his supporters had turned to Crist. He said he hasn't appeared with Davis before because he was focused on returning to his law practice and spending time with his family.<<

and as long as I'm here -
an aside:
"Hey, Charlie - how's that investigation into the death murder of Martin Lee Anderson going?"
