Gov. Charlie Crist pauses to look back, prepares to move on

TALLAHASSEE — Gov. Charlie Crist dropped fresh hints about his future Thursday, saying he'll go home to St. Petersburg when his term ends next month and may join a national group that seeks alternatives to partisanship.

Crist said he plans to go to New York City on Dec. 13 for the launch of No Labels, which advocates practical solutions to the nation's problems beyond party labels and has bipartisan support. A Crist friend and supporter, Democrat Nancy Jacobson, is a leader of the new group.

Crist also said he's in "serious" talks with trial lawyer John Morgan about joining the high-profile Morgan & Morgan personal injury law firm.

"It's serious," Crist said of his discussions with Morgan. "He's a dear friend and a gracious guy, been with me for a long time, in the political sense.

"He's of the people, for the people. I like that," Crist said, parroting the law firm's slogan. (Crist called himself "the people's governor.")

Eeeeew. Crist is going home to his rented condo in St. Pete to be an ambulance chaser with Morgan & Morgan. If anyone ever sees him with Mrs. Crist, let us know.

Some of the comments following the article are spot on. When I think that I voted for him four years ago, I feel dirty.

If Crist joins Morgan & Morgan, I suspect he’ll be a rainmaker rather than someone who actually litigates cases or represents clients.

Regarding regretting your vote for Crist four years ago, we all have ‘em. Four years ago, he was the lesser of two evils.

He'll be directing traffic for the ambulances.

Who cares about his sexuality? Whatever.

Crist is going. GOOD. Get out! I am so glad his political career is OVER. Couldn’t have happened to a better guy.

Un-principled and pathetic. Absolutely repulsive.

He’ll probably come out singing “I am what I am, what I am needs no excuses” with a Goria Gaynor or a Village People song..

Don’t feel too bad, I voted for Arnold twice! Never vote for someone who is married to a RAT especially if he’s a male.

This joker getting kicked to the curb was one of the feel-good stories of election 2010.

It just makes me feel good all over to know this traiter got his butt handed to him by the voters.

He’ll look good with that orange tan being a moderate whatever.

Good riddance and Floridians should rejoice they have Rick Scott!

Morgan & Morgan?
Huh, who would have thunk it?
I would have thought maybe a towel boy at a mens bath house.

Sweet mother of mercy...reporters can’t find stories with more relevance than this? Who gives a rat’s *ss what this flaming old has-been is doing with the rest of his life? Seriously. This country is teetering on the edge of financial ruin, and they think people are concerned about poor Charlie? Give me a break.
