National
Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) Chairman John Cornyn said Monday
that his endorsement of Gov. Charlie Crist in Florida's GOP Senate
primary was "selfish" and that the committee will not stand in Marco
Rubio's way.
Cornyn (R-Texas) said he stuck by the
endorsement, but he also began minimizing it, now that it looks like
Crist may well lose the primary. Recent polls have shown Rubio stealing
virtually all the momentum in the race and opening a lead over Crist.
