but the trial lawyers will still try to get him over the finish line before it’s over.

I'd like to know what all their dogs are in this race for. I know one is to legalize medical pot. "For all you little People".

Are them dems really supporting this fake, phoney fraud of a hack of a failure?

I don’t know how many millions of democrats there are in Florida, but I’d think they could find ONE PERSON better than this jerk.

Crips, run Alex Sink again, even.

LOL! Now there’s some good career advice right there! That he might be able to win!

(It seems like guys mostly win that, but I don’t watch so I’m not sure.)

Crist is tied very closely to the Morgan & Morgan firm. Don't know if your familiar with the Laws here in Florida, but they are designed to keep lawyers employed. Generally the trial lawyers are big backers of Democrats and while Crist was always a RINO even that facade is gone now.

Scott is no prize, but keeping the Orange Menace out of the Governor’s office is still paramount.

In the fwiw dept, I don’t like gov Scott much, but I will vote for him because he understands micro and macro economics.

I definitely agree, but I am having a really hard time justifying in my mind voting for someone because they are not someone else.

Rick Scott is also just horrible.

Actually, I think this might be a case of proactive pollsters trying to cover their asses. These overblown leads that the polls continually publish right up until election are normal practice but Dave Brat made them look stupid.

“As disgusting a maggot as Crist is, I can think of no positive reason to vote for Scott at all.”

Boy is that the truth! When Scott refused to get rid of that crooked prosecutor in the Travon Martin mess, I parted company with him as a leader.

....Florida's Charlie Crist blows 12-point lead ....

I love to hear about Republican turned Democrat Crist's "best friends." Convicted Ponzi fraudster--Scott Rothstein, Repub John McCain, Democrat Bill Richardson...all of whom endorsed him years ago.

I wouldn’t say “horrible”, but subpar, and he has made a lot of mistakes (not having some prior political experience was a problem, even if not as an elected official, but with grassroots activism).

We often have to make “nose holding” decisions. Crist is simply so horrid, that he has to be stopped. Allowing him to get back to Tallahassee to line the benches in FL with moonbats is a big reason why.

Hey if Crist blows this one he will be very rare political animal indeed, one that has lost a major election running as a Republican, then as an independent, and finally as a democrat!

If Crist doesn't blow this one he will just blow the next one.

Scott has been running good commercials. Nothing is coincidental with Democrats so this is the year that medicinal marijuna is on the ballot in an inititive funded greatly by good friend of Charlies, Morgan of a major law firm that Charlie has been a part of last few years. But Scott has done his job an brought jobs to Florida. IT won’t surprise me if Crist wins, becuase the media does not like Scott, but i am hopeful that Scott gets four more years
