This only shows that name recognition matters and Crist was able to use it.
Also the emotional issue of Children, and Crist being tough on paedophiles etc made sure that he enough support in the primary.
Thats why you see Libs use children all the time,like ' Do it for the children' ,' mother and children affected by this policy', it is a vote winner.
Crist win means a set back for the conservative movement in Florida.
Is it an open primary? Dems will vote in a "R" primary for the most liberal candidate.
