I'm starting to get the impression that @TheRickWilson is not a Charlie Crist fan https://t.co/vltGqfrPXX

@michelelfrost I'm not saying I'd love to see him being torn limb from limb by wolves. But I'm not not saying that, either.

Former Republican Florida Governor Charlie Crist cruised to an easy victory over Nan Rich in today’s Democratic gubernatorial primary, capturing around 74 percent of the vote. Crist didn’t, however, recapture the hearts of Republicans who watched him defect in 2012.

In essence, it isn’t about Crist the candidate. It’s about the Democratic Party. It’s a window into the deep, desperate soul of a state party looking for a foothold back into power. They know Crist is lying to them, and they love it. They know he’s playing them for patsies, and they’re lined up around the block to kiss his manorexic backside.
You’ve never seen such abject fawning for a man they know is a pathological liar and weapons-grade weirdo. It’s not masochism; to Democrats it looks like cold, objective calculation. Don’t ever mistake them for a party that isn’t willing to make sweeping compromises to win. Crist speaks directly to the id of Florida’s Democratic voters: “Screw my record, character, or history, you wanna win don’t you?”

Florida's unemployment rate when @JebBush left office: 3.3 percent. Unemployment rate post Charlie Crist: 11.9 percent. So, there's that.

Once again, if he was known as Senator Charlie #Crist, there would be an (R-FL) next to his name. Crist is a butthurt political opportunist.
