This afternoon, I came across this interesting article by LifeNews.com. As many of you who live in the State of Florida may recall, a couple of months ago, Governor Charlie Crist announced that he was running as an Independent for the U.S. Senate seat vacated by Senator Mel Martinez. Well, at some point today, Governor Crist removed the pro-life section on his website. In an effort to keep all Catholics informed for the upcoming elections, here is the story:

In the latest development in the race for the open U.S. Senate seat in Florida, Governor Charlie Crist is coming under fire for removing the pro-life section of his campaign website. This comes on the day the legislature sent him a bill that would allow women to see an ultrasound of their baby before an abortion.

Crist has already hinted he will veto the legislation, which also allows Florida to opt out of some of the abortion funding under the new national health care law President Barack Obama signed.

That he would potentially veto a pro-life bill with broad support from voters is another indication of his strategy to leave the Republican Party and run as an independent.

Knowing he may veto the bill, the campaign of pro-life Republican candidate Marco Rubio informed LifeNews.com today that Crist’s campaign scrubbed his web site of a section touting Crist as a supposedly pro-life candidate.
