“Greer was installed as RPOF Chairman at Charlie Crist’s direction. Even as Greer spent recklessly and alienated party leaders and activists, he had Crist’s full support.”

Oh yes, friend. That “birds of a feather” saying rings true over and over again!

Next crook to go down: Charlie Crist.

“McCollum would be best to recuse himself specifically from this case and place it in the hands of a competent prosecutor. Given he’s running on the GOP Ticket for Gov - going after Greer will be used by the candidates that are left who still are in Charlies pocket.”

Agree! The Gharlie kissing elites will go wild about McCollum using this case for “political gain”.

Still waiting on those pretty pictures! LOL!

True..the media will prop up Crist until he wins the primary and then destroy him over it in the general against the dem in Nov.

What primary?

[penelopesire]

My bad. No independent primary in Florida...right?

I should’ve said that I think you’re thinking of Judge Greer. You may have heard something else.

[GladesGuru]

“More boy intern problems?”

I’m much more concerned with Jim Greer’s screwing the taxpayers, all who contributed to the Florida and National Pubbie Party, etc. than just another sex scandal.

No, maybe lower, center.

My bad. No independent primary in Florida...right?

I doubt there's any such thing anywhere. It's not like he's a member of the "independent party." He's just not a member of a party, so there's no party to hold a primary. He'll be on the general election ballot, nominated by petition rather than by a party.

[penelopesire]

The general intent of my comment remains the same however. The media will prop Crist up to take votes away from Rubio and then drop the hammer nearer the election in order to get the dem elected. The media in this country(as you know) are nothing more than democrat strategists now.

[pollywog]

**** embarrassed****

Yes, you are absolutely right. I was thinking of the “ wrong Greer”...

Thanks for the clarification.

My first concern is with the mission and the message. It is quite possible to have a system with a prosperous commercial elite, able to enjoy freedom, and a mass of peons enjoying nothing.

There are those in the Tea Party, so called conservatives, who do not support RKBA, or the first amendment, who scorn the very concept of inalienable rights.

The only valid message of the conservative movement is freedom, as ratified by our Constitution. There can be no trading away of sacred freedom for anyone's personal security or gain.

Put me down for misuse of funds related to an illicit affair. I'll go with a young boy or a water mammal for the affair.

If we can dump the McCainite RINOs and get conservatives who can stop Obama in his tracks, we will be in good shape.

“Sun Tan Charlie’s buddy! Maybe they can get him to turn on Charlie! Hahaha!”

Whatever happened to “Chain Gang Charlie”? He first gained fame as favoring chain gangs for crooks, and the voters ate it up. One issue does not a politician make!

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

Charlie Crist is toast - CRISPY TOAST - at that.

Welcome Senator Rubio.

[MindBender26]

Bill McCollum is far from a RINO. He led the fight to both impeach and renove clinton when he khew it would cost him his senate race. Dems never forgave him.

I know him rather well. A tough balsey hard R guy

[Frantzie]

McCollum does not support the AZ law - he lost my vote.

[FreeKeys]

Yeah, I always liked McCollum.

I’m a little tired of FReepers calling decent people RINOs for no reason, or for minor reasons.

Me too. And don't forget -- McCollum is leading the other state AGs in the suit against Obamacare's mandates -- and he was co-leader of the impeachment of Slick Willy. He chooses his fights well -- and takes on the big ones. Unlike most politicians he's NOT all talk and no substance. We need more guys with guts like that, and we need to support them.
