As the GOP head to Florida, the literal poster boy for trial lawyers in Florida is endorsing Obama. It is not a surprise. Charlie Crist was Barack Obama’s favorite Republican for the longest time. They stood shoulder to shoulder in support of the stimulus.
RedState played a great role in helping beat Charlie Crist. Marco Rubio is such an improvement
But I do hope Charlie Crist gets a speaking role at the Democratic National Convention. They could use a refreshing voice such as Crist’s.
See, Charlie Crist has long maintained Todd Akin’s abortion position — no exceptions except life of the mother. Given the Democrats’ extremist “abortion on demand” position, Crist would be a refreshing recalibration for them.
Crist also has an A+ rating from the National Rifle Association. After a month of tragic shootings around the country, I’m sure the Democrats will do all they can to highlight their gun control agenda. Having someone on their platform who actually opposes further gun regulations would offer a more diverse opinion,
Crist has also been a long time opponent of same sex unions. As the Democrats move further and further out of the mainstream on that issue, Charlie Crist could be a great tool for grounding the convention in reality — a reality where no American state has seen its citizens support gay marriage.
Or, it could be that Charlie Crist really is a political cross dresser willing to say or do anything to advance his own agenda. Maybe he really is willing to abandon decades of his convictions to be back in the lime light. He did, after all, leave the GOP to become an independent when polls showed that was a best shot at election. He even continued to say he disagreed with Barack Obama on just about everything.
If he is abandoning decades of convention just to get back in politics, well then he’ll fit right in.
Democrats get the Republican party's leftovers. Who would choose Crist over Rubio? Crist suffers from misplaced high self esteem
Metro Charlie is a joke here in Fla. He has no constituency,no party,no money and no future. No wonder he goes both ways both in his personal life and in politics! Hes a true nowhere man heading nowhere. Sound like anyone(any major political figure) you know?
Not exactly right. Most politicians want to advance their own power.
Charlie works for a bunch of slip and fall lawyers here in Florida....he knows about falling
a year ago while in Tampa, I saw him on a slip and fall commercial.
My how the mighty have fallen.
Charlie Crist is a good example why virtuous people would readily dismiss and ignore politicians except that they have such power over the collective and historically have done much harm. It is the painful, tedious duty of good people to expose and limit horrible people like Charlie Crist especially when they seek power.
Yeah Morgan and MOrgan probably the most pathetic of the bunch. They spend a bundle on adv. use his image state wide to suck in really dumb clients.I saw the billboards on the fla. turnpike about a week ago.The ultimate ambulance chaSERS.
“Sound like anyone(any major political figure) you know?”
Crist will soon learn the Arlen Specter lesson. As soon as he’s given his speech in Charlotte, all of his new found friends will disappear and he will be completely irrelevant.
Nah!
Two of a kind.
How Bozo managed to sire two daughters escapes me. The liar has been a closet case since his teen years.
Charie’s = Charlie’s
Crist is vying to join the pantheon of Demon RINOs like specter, murkowski, lugar et al
Indeed! He's down to making commercials for (wealthy, influential) ambulance chasers "Morgan and Morgan". He is a pathetic man. I could barely stand him as Governor.
When he was running for that office, the local liberal rag (Miami Times) "outed" him as gay. Just sayin....
.
That would be Morgan & Morgan. Founder, John Morgan is a big Obama supporter and even has had it (Obama) in his home for a fund raiser.
The firm's moto is "For the People". Read "For the Money" instead.
“I ruv you Bamy. Are we on for tonight?”
That’s a loaded headline (LOL!).
Is Charlie still married? I always wondered if that was just a political stunt, in case McCain picked him for VP.
