Sporting an I _ not R _ Crist seeks union help

Jacksonville, Fla. (AP) -- Gov. Charlie Crist, who shed the "R" next to his name and replaced it with an "I" — asked for the labor union AFL-CIO's endorsement for Senate on Friday.

Crist, an independent candidate, made an unusual appearance before the union's leaders. The union traditionally supports Democratic candidates and Crist, a lifelong Republican until this month, had never sought their help.

"I'm here for several reasons. I am hear to learn, I am hear to listen and I am here to show respect. There's not enough of that happening right now in government and politics," Crist said in a soft, humble tone. "I want your help, I want your vote, I want your support, I want your endorsement and I am asking for it."

Crist would sell his own mother to get elected. What a disgusting human being. I hope, after the election, he is ruined financially.

Not me. I hope he has a comfortable savings that will allow him to spend the rest of his days retired, on the Key West beaches. Far away from politics (and women).

He should replace the I and R for a G.

Crist is a disgusting creature.

What vile RINO’s the FL GOP turns out including Mel Martinez 2 who was against the AZ law before he was for it and that RINO p**** Connie Mack.
