Yes, Scott won amazingly as governor of FL, but Crist... now there's an elephant of a different color, ole Cristoforos the true "mans man".
The tolerance of some of this is overwhelming, and a thread throughout the national party, starting with Coulter and the Log Cabins at CPAC. And Gov. Christie of Jersey... and it all links in with the media's agenda on so many levels. Oh yes, and Hollywood too.
I live in Florida and I have seen the GOP in action - the party establishment ALWAYS supports the liberal, and they will stop at nothing to use party resources to do this, regardless of what party members think.
