I don't see how you can say that when Jeb Bush has reapeatedly called Crist a CONSERVATIVE.
Maybe Jeb is playing ball with the GOP political machine. I like Jeb, but even he isn't as conservative as I would like.
Strong conservatives endorsed Gallagher, like Dave Weldon and Senator Webster. On the other side of the coin, RINO McCain backed Crist.
Crist is a tree-hugger:
Offshore drilling separates hopefuls
Gubernatorial candidate Charlie Crist opposes rigs within 125 miles of Florida's coast, while Tom Gallagher supports the idea.

Also, Donald Trump had a fund raiser for Charlie Crist, the same Donald Trump who tried to take a woman's home away from her for one of his casinos. If Crist won, I'd be anxious if I were a home owner in Florida.
