This must be a Jim McGreevey or a Rock Hudson-style arrangement.
This Crist will apparently do anything to be VP.

Actually, that was Governor Jeb Bush who got stared down by the county probate judge, George Greer.

Wow, that’s sad.

You’d think he would have learned something from Tim Russert’s untimely death...

I am still trying to figure out why his is news.

Because Crist is a formerly "open", always been, gay man who wants to be Vice President. So he's engaged a "beard" for cover to obscure the truth.

This man cannot be permitted to be veep. Homosexuality is a mental disorder and can't be tolerated in a position of power. Worse, since he's hiding it, he can be blackmailed. Even worse, he may simply "come out" once he obtains the power...

Proving that anyone, gay or straight, can get married in Florida—as long as they marry someone of the opposite sex!

Private Life: Not seen with women for 30 years... The reporters “know” all of this background seem to have the credibility of TMZ reporters. They comment on his dating of females...reminds me of info that McGreevy (NJ) used to hang out strip clubs. Wouldn't be the first FL Governor who liked men, Lawton Childes had similar rumors.

Public person: How convenient that reporters were on the scene of this very private moment with all of the background info ready for a newscast/print hours later on the same news day. May be Crist had an Engagement Consultant. A three day weekend - holiday to boot! The supposed wedding will take place after the election and will be as real as Michael Jackson's.

Question: How can these politicians betray their true self to get elected yet NOT do a few simple things such as immigration enforcement, support a strong defense, keep taxes down, and permit the drilling of domestic oil.

Answer: We let them off the hook. We accept their little lies in their private and public life.

No, Jeb Bush was governor at the time. Ignore the idiots who tell you otherwise.

(And it’s Judge Greer you should blame, not the office of governor.)
