Former Florida AG Bill McCollum Calling Around About 2016 Senate Seat
The Republican Senate primary race to replace outgoing U.S. Senator Marco Rubio continues heat up, as more former and present elected Republican officials begin to dream about walking the halls of the U.S. Senate, and taking that little choo choo train ride between the Senate office buildings and the U.S. Capitol.

Rep. Ron DeSantis is expected to announce any day now, and Rep. Tom Rooney has inched closer to throwing his hat into the ring. Lt. Governor Carlos Lopez-Cantera is also said to be meeting with key Florida and D.C. folks to discuss what appears to be an imminent run for his friend Marco Rubio’s Senate seat.

Yes, Rubio and Lopez-Cantera are close. Lopez-Cantera was standing next to Rubio’s immediate family during his much anticpated presidential announcement this past Monday at the Freedom Tower in Miami

Even former Speaker of the Florida House Will Weatherford is considering a possible Senate run in 2016.

So with all these newer faces looking to replace Rubio in the U.S. Senate, could there be room for a not-so-new, but very capable former 5-term Florida Congressman and Attorney General Republican to jump into this soon-to-be contentious Senate race?

Bill McCollum is making calls. 

From what several sources have told the Shark Tank, Bill McCollum is not calling around and  telling his statewide  supporters and donors that he is considering a third run for the U.S. Senate, rather asking them what their thoughts would be about him possibly getting in the 2016 Senate race.

Op-ed:
Don't Be Fooled By A Deal That Might NOT Be What It Seems

By: Diane Sori / The Patriot Factor / Right Side Patriots on CPR Worldwide Media  cprworldwidemedia.net

As we all know by now Iran is expecting a special delivery package from Russia by the end of this year...a very special package in the guise of the Russian-built S-300 surface to air defense missile system. Coming on the heels of Vladimir Putin lifting a now five-year ban on delivery of this system...a system that would up Iran's military capability by giving them a strong deterrent against any air attack...this means a deterrent from an attack by Israel of course as we know Obama would dare NOT have America attack his own islamic brethren.

And we all know that Israel believes that Putin’s decision...especially considering the timing...allowing him to sell this air defense missile system to Iran is based solely upon Obama's sell-out 'framework deal' that helped to legitimize the Iranian regime in the eyes of the world. And with Israel...and Netanyahu in specific...continuing to criticize and warn the world of the dangers of a nuclear armed Iran...the truth hiding in plain site is that with Obama's leaving Iran's nuclear program largely intact...giving Iran exactly what they demanded...actually puts them on the fast-track to a bomb... that is if they do NOT already have one. Netanyahu knows this, Obama knows this, and know that Vladimir Putin knows this as well.

So, now the question is why would Putin do this and especially do it now for his dislike of muslims and their corresponding nonsense is well known. And let's NOT forget that whatever Vladimir Putin is the one thing he is NOT is a stupid man, and that means there is more...much more...to this upcoming selling of a defense system to Israel's and America's enemy than meets the eye.

Now what I'm going to propose might shock some, but if one takes the time to look at all the puzzle pieces individually before rushing to try and force the pieces to fit together, one will find that Vladimir Putin just lit the fuse to give Benjamin Netanyahu the so-called 'green light'...or at least a time-frame...to go in and take Iran out.

Let me explain...simply stated...Vladimir Putin just 'bitch-slapped' Barack HUSSEIN Obama for allowing negotiations to go forward with Iran in the first place. A payback to Obama that allows Putin to now negate the lawsuit placed on Russia by Iran in the International Court of Arbitration in Geneva...a lawsuit that allowed Iran to sue Russia for breech of the $800-million contract signed by both parties that would have allowed Russia to sell Iran the S-300 surface to air defense missile system back in 2007. And with Russian talking heads saying this is Putin's attempt to turn Iran into a major new market for Russian arms exports, the thing most forget is that first, Russia is the world's second-largest arms exporter raking in $13 billion last year alone, and second, Russia and Iran are already partners of sorts in the weapons business and have been for many years.

Already partners in the weapons business is critical, and remember also this anything but minor little detail...Russia and Iran are both aligned with and supporters of Bashir al-Assad's government in Syria. Routinely supplying al-Assad's forces with weapons, supplies, and much needed monetary aid, Russia gets to keep in return their much needed and coveted naval base in Tartus. And with Tartus being the Russian Navy's only Mediterranean repair and so-called 'replenishment spot', this becomes logistically very important for Russia as it spares their warships from having to waste time going through the Turkish Straights to get back to their Black Sea bases. And Russia cannot afford to lose this base from both a military and an economic perspective, because with Iran being al-Assad's greatest supporter and asset it is Iran who is holding the key as to whether al-Assad allows the Russian naval base to stay or NOT stay.

Translation: Russia and Iran must continue with their partnership of sorts even though Vladimir Putin is NO fan of nor has any use for the islamic sorts that currently are in control of Iran.

But...in my opinion...this is the most critical but NOT wildly known aspect of why Putin did what he did and why he did it at this particular time. While Netanyahu spoke to Putin by phone yesterday to convey his 'displeasure' over the decision to sell the S-300 surface to air defense missile system to Iran, Vladimir Putin and Benjamin Netanyahu have been meeting with each other in Moscow over the past few years to discuss the Middle East in general and Iran in specific. They have a cordial, if you will, relationship because "The Israelis almost tacitly supported Putin in Ukraine and he won't sacrifice [the relationship] for a handful of dollars," according to Ruslan Pukhov, director of the Center for the Analysis of Strategies and Technologies (CAST), a Moscow-based defense industry think tank.

And their relationship is so very unlike the always Obama initiated volatile goings-on between Netanyahu and himself...a relationship that is deteriorating by the day thanks to Obama's oh-so outwardly siding with Israel's enemies and his obvious hatred of Jews in general. And with Putin also being NO fan of Obama...to put it mildly...this single commonality leads me to believe that in NO way did Putin NOT forewarn Netanyahu of what he was going to do, especially in light of now hearing Netanyahu's somewhat guarded and low-key response.

Remember, while Israel has much to fear from a nuclear armed Iran so does the rest of the world and that world includes Russia. And Vladimir Putin is smart enough to know that NO matter the deal he makes with Iran, Iran still cannot be trusted as long as the radical mullahs are calling the shots...as long as their goal is the establishment of a worldwide caliphate with Iran sitting at the head of the table. And, remember too, Putin's goal is the rebuilding of the once-great Russian Empire for above all else Vladimir Putin is a statist who wants 'Mother Russia' returned to her former glory...her former glory alone NOT having her sharing the 'spotlight' with those he too knows are savages out to kill us all.

So knowing all this it is NOT really that far-fetched to assume that for Putin to get what he wants for Russia the caliphate must NOT be allowed to reach fruition. So what better way to assure that than to have Israel...and most specifically Benjamin Netanyahu...be given the 'green light' to take Iran out and giving them the time frame for which to do so. And do NOT forget, this Russian deal will NOT take place for six months or longer as the missile system must still be built, delivered, and set-up. And with this deal being announced for all the world to hear, BiBi knows what needs to be done as well as the amount of time he has to get it done.

And know Israel will get the job done for if NO other reason than these two-words... 'NEVER AGAIN'...and Putin is capitalizing on these words for Russia too knows what it's like to face extermination of sorts for the days of both Joseph Stalin and Adolph Hitler killing millions of Russians are NOT all that long ago. 

Just something to think about...just something to consider.

Russian President Vladimir Putin lifted a ban on shipping S-300 air defense missile systems to the Islamic Republic of Iran on Monday morning. Moscow will also begin importing Iranian oil in exchange for other goods.

Russia cancelled a contract to ship the S-300 missile systems to Iran in 2010 under pressure from the west, but has now lifted the embargo.

“The Executive Order lifts the ban on transit of the S-300 air defense missile systems via Russian Federation territory (including by air), export from the Russian Federation to the Islamic Republic of Iran, and transfer of the S-300 to the Islamic Republic of Iran outside the Russian Federation’s territory, using ships or aircraft flying the Russian Federation flag,” the Kremlin announced in a press release Monday.

“We don’t believe it’s constructive at this time for the Russians to move forward with this at this time,” said State Department Spokesperson Marie Harf at Monday afternoon’s press briefing.

Ultimately though, the State Department doesn’t see the lift of the sanctions as a sign of disunity between western nations over the nuclear deal agreed to earlier this month in Switzerland. Secretary of State John Kerry touted Russian cooperation in the Iran deal three times on Sunday shows April 12.

Israeli officials have denounced the lift of the ban, saying that an Iranian missile defense system would hamper strikes against any nuclear facilities which would exist under the recently negotiated nuclear deal.

“This is a direct result of the legitimacy that Iran is receiving from the nuclear deal that is being prepared, and proof that the Iranian economic growth which follows the lifting of sanctions will be exploited for arming itself and not for the welfare of the Iranian people,” Israeli Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz said in a statement.

Sen. Marco Rubio's (R-FL) chips are on the table in 2016 -- and he's all in. As a result, he has publicly pledged to give up his US Senate seat (which is causing quite the stir, as it happens) in pursuit of the nation’s highest political office.

But the road to victory is not immediately clear to Rubio backers.

Rubio, after all, begins this journey with tepid national support at best and many conservatives refusing to vote for him. What he does have, however, is an abundance of charisma and an inspiring message that can, perhaps, differentiate him from the more experienced (and indeed more conservative) candidates vying for the same job.

Speaking from his hometown on Monday night, near the historic Miami Freedom Tower, Rubio touched on familiar themes: His uniquely American story; his loving and hardworking parents who escaped from Castro-controlled Cuba in 1956; his hopes and dreams for America in the 21st century; and above all, why he ultimately -- and stubbornly -- refused to sit on the sidelines and become a spectator in 2016.

“I have heard some suggest that I should step aside and wait my turn," he said. “But I cannot. Because I believe our very identity as an exceptional nation is at stake, and I can make a difference as president.”

“If we remember that the family, not the government, is the most important institution in our society. If we remember that all human life deserves protection from our laws. And if we remember that all parents deserve to choose the education of their children then we will have a strong people and a strong nation," he added.

He also attacked the current administration's misguided foreign policy -- namely, its "dangerous concessions to Iran and hostility to Israel" -- which is an issue he will emphasize and play up in the campaign ahead. The following line, however, really seemed to strike a chord with the audience – and perhaps the nation at large.

“Just yesterday, a leader from yesterday, began a campaign for president by promising to take us back to yesterday,” he said, an obvious reference to Hillary Clinton who is the Democrats' likely candidate for president in 2016. “Yesterday is over, and we’re never going back. You see, we Americans are proud of our history. But our country has always been about the future.”

“We must change the decisions we are making by changing the people who are making them,” he continued. “So that is why tonight, grounded by the lessons of our history, and inspired by the promise of our future, I announce my candidacy for president of the United States.”

Russia’s decision to sell advanced anti-aircraft missiles to Iran is the “direct result” of the Obama’s nuclear deal with Islamic Republic

Pamela Geller / Atlas Shrugs

There is no American historical analogy we can make with Obama, except perhaps General Sherman, if he was destroying everything in his wake for the Confederacy and not the Union — because that is what Obama is doing.

He is destroying the advancement of freedom and Americanism across the world. He has taken a wrecking ball to ironclad alliances with allies. He is doing it at dizzying speed, so that the unthinkable becomes commonplace.

Ten years ago, if a journalist was beheaded like Daniel Pearl, we recoiled, but we sprung into action, so repulsed were we by the sheer savagery. Now its the every day — Obama takes the golf course with a shrug of the shoulders.

Nothing happens for decades and decades happen in a day. The...
