Republican Gov. Rick Scott's campaign is stepping up one of its lines of attack against Democratic governor candidate Charlie Crist: attempting to link him in voters' minds with President Barack Obama.

Though Obama remains popular with some Democratic voters, the strategy behind the Republican Party of Florida's ads is clear: Lots of other voters are displeased with the Democratic president's performance.

The ad's final image is a photograph of the infamous 2009 Crist-Obama hug.

Once Crist had actually touched President Obama, he was contaminated in the eyes of the right wing nuts and dead to Florida Republicans.
