It is very likely that Crist will now say that he is a Democrat. If he wins, Crist will become a Dem.

Of course, I am voting for Rubio but -—

I would vote for Meek before I ever voted for Crist...at least I know where Meek is coming from instead of the Flip-Flopper Tan Boy !!

I voted for the Democrat last time (first & only Democrat vote ever) to defeat Tan Boy !! George W Bush showed up in Tallahassee for a rally for Crist and Crist ran to Palm Beach not to be on the same stage with W !! I will never forgive Crist for that and the reason for my vote against him !! I am glad Crist destroyed his political career ...HE IS HISTORY IN FLORIDA NOW !!

Clinton supporting a Republican? /s Imagine that. Crist doesn't know who he is but Clinton does.

Wonder if Clinton is going to broker a deal in Alaska. McAdams withdraws and throws support to Murkowski, then if she wins she becomes a Dem.

Maybe Meek was offended.

With the hard left commercials that he’s been running down here, you’d think that he was a post op Nancy Pelosi.

Crist is like a prison bitch who’s been passed from cell to cell one round too many.

Hmmm ... "Crist" and "Meek" in the same headline.

There could be a really killer pun in there. But I'll pass ...

The only thing I can think is that Meek might benefit from blacks being upset that the Clintons/White House were willing to throw him under the bs, and may get out to vote for him?

I’d love to know what ‘incentive’ he was offered to withdraw?
Reminiscent of PA with Sestak.

Zero is (semi) black. Bubba is not. If Bubba is trying to get Meek (who is black) to quit, then it can be viewed as an attack on blacks and an attempt to dis zero as well as Meek, which turns out the black vote, which helps Meek.

1. This shows that national Dems are terrified that Rubio could one day become President of the United States.

2. Back to FL, the only race that BO cares about is Alex Sink - crucial to 2012. So, did Clinton put the story out to dampen black turnout and hurt Sink and thus Obama.

3. The entire drama was leaked by Crist as a last minute Hail Mary. Just not sure Clinton’s motivations.

Mr.Meek, what were you promised?

If I were Kendrick Meek and Crist, Obama and Clinton offered me Amb. to Haiti, I would drop out and endorse Rubio.

I have no doubt that the rats are terrified of Rubio.

But I think the story helps Meek, and anything that helps Meek helps turnout for Sink as well. Now, if Meek had dropped out, then, yeah, it’d hurt Sink.

I also don’t see how the story helps Crist unless Meek had dropped out.

I agree that Bubba would focus on ways to help Hillary for ‘12, and Sink would be a help, but I don’t see how getting Meek to drop out for Crist helps Hillary in connection with Sink.
