Legendary Miami Dolphins coach Don Shula&#8211;an icon in Florida for\u00a0coaching the last undefeated team in the NFL&#8211;\u00a0has endorsed Crist&#8217;s candidacy for Senate.

But, unfortunately for Rubio, Shula is rooting for Crist.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFlorida voters can trust Charlie Crist to fight for their interests in the U.S. Senate,\u201d Coach Shula said in a statement released by the Crist campaign. \u201cGovernor Crist\u2019s conservative policies have kept our taxes low and allowed our businesses to thrive, and he has the character it takes to work first and foremost for his fellow Floridians. Washington needs a leader like Charlie Crist to stand up for Florida in our nation\u2019s capital.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI am truly grateful for the support of my fellow Floridians, the Shulas,\u201d Crist said. \u201cCoach Shula\u2019s successes as both a Hall of Fame football coach and entrepreneur serve as a great example to all Americans. I appreciate Mary Anne\u2019s charitable contributions to the South Florida community and the state as a whole. I am honored to have their endorsement.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>No word yet on who Dan Marino is thinking about endorsing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>File Photo of Shula at WOFL MIAMI- A bit of good news for\u00a0 Gov.
