Could Crist run for re-election, rather than Senate? ("it's hard to be more concervative than I am")

"It's hard to be more concervative than I am on issues - though there are different ways stylistically to communicate that - I'm pro-life, I'm pro-gun, I'm pro-family, and I''m anti tax. (Critics will note he voted against abortion restrictions as a legislator and used to call himself "pro-choice," that he supported higher cigarette taxes) I don't know what else you're supposed to be, except maybe angry too," Crist said, noting a Daily Kos poll that found Rubio leading among Florida Republicans who doubt President Obama was born in America.

Crist is toast. The Scott Rothstein $1 billion ponzi scheme will sink him. His wife’s ex owned the plane Rothstein used to flee the country.

I don't know what else you're supposed to be, except maybe angry too," Crist said,

Gee, he sure knows how to win friends among the conservative voters doesn't he.

Hey Crist, while you were governor did Florida’s gov’t get bigger or smaller?

[Waryone]

"It's hard [for me] to be [any] more concervative[sic] than I am on issues"...[I can barely talk the talk. What makes you think I can walk it?]

We know you better than you think, Charlie. We know you can't walk it. Just so you know, trashing conservatives won't get you one new vote.

Spelling from article: "It's hard to be more concervative than I am on issues"

Is that how the commies spell "conservative"?

Everything is wrong in their world.

“Concervative?”

Didn’t the paper have an editor? Geesh.

[dangus]

It IS hard. Every time he tries to be more conservative, he gets this nasty rash.

[fieldmarshaldj]

The Orange Menace's idea of "Concervative" (sic).

[Impy]

Is that Adam Lambert dressed like a fey Frankenstein getting a simulated hummer from another dude?

[Brytani]

Every place Crist appears someone needs to be there with a big blowup poster of Obama and him hugging on stage.

[Brytani]

Poor Charlie, knows so little about conservatism he can’t even spell it.

Maybe he was thinking communism.

[Brytani]

What the hell is that thing?

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

I knew Charlie when he was conservative, in the Florida YRs, 30 years ago.

Crist is a depressive no-where man. He is bored and aimless. That’s why he wants to be a US Senator. Not to do anything anything interesting. Plus he figures he has earned it. More gay nitelife to blend into in DC

He would be better as Governor just to keep a loony toon Dem out

[Brytani]

I’ve only seen Charlie in action for 10 years and he’s been anything but a conservative.

What happened? Did he fall on his head a few times in the last 30 years?

[fieldmarshaldj]

The decline and fall of Western Civilization, my FRiend.

[fieldmarshaldj]

His addiction to the Cream of Sumyunguy turned him into a liberal.

[Lucius Cornelius Sulla]

I’ve only seen Charlie in action for 10 years and he’s been anything but a conservative.

Probably the same thing that happened to ex governor Don Sundquist of Tennessee over the same period. I was acquainted with him too. Conservatives who 'went native'.
