The recent Crist / Hochul comments are only feasible if the vote is rigged in their favor. Think about it.
Charlie Crist is grilling Johnsonville Brats and wants desperately to lose the election!
First, Hochul doesn’t need to rig the vote. As to Crist, when I hear hoofbeats I first think horses, not zebras. The electorate has shifted sharply in favor of the GOP. You have the recent video of Crist with his knee pads on for Biden. You have the selection of this vermin for his running mate: The strategy is clear: they hope GOP voters are complacent and stay home because they think the election is a done deal, and they hope to supercharge the dwindling leftist base. Or they’re stupid. Either theory is more plausible than the one you propose because the GOP FL government is going to be watching this election like hawks. If your theory was correct, Crist would tack to the center so that the election upset could be covered by the narrative that Floridians backed a “moderate” instead of the “hard right.”
