Lol - I see the Crist campaign is grasping at straws.

I think I said about twenty times so far that Gallagher was a moderate until he had a kid. Since 1998 Tom has been a consistant and constant supporter of all conservative causes. Charlie has supported none and thwarted many.

You bring up what was said in 94 when Gov Bush was challenging Gallagher in the primaries and when Tom was a moderate. This is laughable for the above reasons.

However, even then Tom Gallagher was not for gay adoption, "civil" unions and outrageous spending proposals. It is Charlie Crist who now makes Lawton Chiles look like Alan Keyes - of course I wish Keyes a longer life.

Charlie Crist a conservative? Yes, a real conservative. He's for gay adoption, he's condescendingly for civil unions ("I'm a live and let live guy.")and for record spending. A stand-up conservative in the mold of Barney Frank, Maxine Waters and Ralph Nader.

His use of the term "Reagan conservative," a term that every liberal RINO is using now makes me sick. Reagan would have had a field day with those guys (something similar to his 'I know immitation is the best form of flatery, but this is grand larceny' comment).

His commercials are now just plain desperate and sick. Tom Gallagher a tax man because Gallagher has a more broad based tax saving incentive than Crist's homestead raise? Tom and Gov. Bush fought the bullet train. Charlie advocated for it. Tom and Gov. Bush fought the ridiculous classroom ammendment that encourages laziness and does nothing to raise standards . Charlie advocated for it. Tom and Gov. Bush fought the slot machine proposal that would increase crime while failing to actually provide any money to education. Charlie advocated for it. Charlie's the one who's promising $5,000 a year for every adopted child until they turn 18, something he knows won't even pass, showing his dishonesty as well as his fiscal recklessness. All of this would lead to unimaginable taxes.

All this leads any rational person to conclude that Charlie Crist is the tax man.

You bring up all of the citizen sponsored initiatives (slot machines, bullet train, class size) and say that "Crist advocated for it." Are you implying that by filing briefs in front of the Florida Supreme Court in his capacity as the state's attorney general that he "advocated for it?" That's the only way that your above post could possibly make any sense. He did NOT support those amendments, and if you disagree, please post a link.
By the way, are you still insisting that Crist is pro gay adoption, even after he has said he opposes gay adoption? Finally, I have no idea what this $5k for adopted kids is all about. If you have any details about it, please share them. Otherwise, relax, I'm sure it's not a tax increase. If it were, the Gallagher campaign would be blasting him for it. (which they are not)

Increase the homestead and there would only be a few hundred homeowners paying property taxes in counties like Taylor, Dixie and many others..Always thought the homestead should be based on the second $50,000 of evaluation.My vote for Gallagher..
