This isn’t too big of a shocker, and may not even be worth talking about. Governor Charlie Crist has endorsed Elena Kagan. Crist really likes to shock us doesn’t he? Speaking with the Miami Herald the former Republican said that Kagan would be great and would do a good job.
Funny how things change, I guess Crist feels it necessary to coddle a little bit closer to the left since he really doesn’t have those pesky Republican voters to worry about. Back when his buddy Obama nominated Sonya Sotamayor, Crist disapproved (at least publically) with the pick. He still had Marco Rubio to deal with in the primary, now it’s full steam ahead with trying to pull votes from the left.
Crist was asked what he thought about Kagan:
“A lot. I think she’d do a great job,” Crist said. He also added: “Isn’t that fun.”
Isn’t that fun? What exactly does that mean? Anyway, Crist continues to shock no one while pretending to be a spontaneous politician. Charlie Crist’s Kagan endorsement isn’t the only “shocking” thing going on with Charlie. There are also rumors that Mike Bloomberg may endorse Crist in his independent bid for Senate. Another shocker I know.
Let’s talk about Charlie Crist’s Kagan endorsement, the prospect of a Bloomberg endorsement of Crist or if you like we could just chat about how ridiculously predictable politicians of all stripes are becoming.

UUUUUGH! I usually do not wish ill of people, but Charlie Crist is pushing the envelope. He knows his goose is cooked and is angling for a job at some George Soros organization.

The joke that is Charlie Crist continues to grow daily. The worst part about it is that it’s Crist himself who is growing the joke.

If I have to give the Tea Party some credit, and believe me, it utterly pains me to do so, it’s that they’re calling out the career politicians.
If you want nothing to actually get done in Washington, vote for a carreer politician. As Specter and Crist have shown us, whichever way the wind is blowing and whichever vote will keep their job is what drives them.
My question is, how does Chuck sleep at night? We know he’s not straight (which isn’t a problem for me, I’m all for equal rights for all, ergo, gays marrying), now he’s no longer the conservative he was pretending to be? Dadgum Chuck, we know you’ve got some dough, hit the beach, hang it up, go find something else to do.

I think the “Isn’t that fun” comment was because he is actually able to speak his mind instead of towing the GOP line of BS, as they require everyone to do. They are in such lockstep, I know what they are saying with the sound turned off. Not an original though in the bunch.
Crist is no dummy- he left the party for a reason. Marco Rubio is a hypocrite and a criminal- a persona the Florida GOP is comfortable with.

Ha ha ha ha ha ha! What a GREAT comment. Yes, it is fun to tell the truth for a change. For one thing, you know that you’re no longer on the side of Satan.

Wow! Micky beat me to it, another Arlen Specter. Another career politician that doesn’t stand by any values….GET OUT (or die faster)!

@Lola – the right is tolerant of different opinions. You are obviously projecting the requirements to be accepted on the left. If you don’t tow the party line and march in lockstep with ‘The Party’ then you are demonized. Just ask Joe Lieberman and any number of other dems who tried to say what they really thought instead of parroting ‘The Party’ talking points.
Your projection is really pretty pathetic.

Add Blanche Lincoln to that list Beth. It’s the unions trying to defeat her in Arkansas. Guess she doesn’t know how to goose-step.

“Marco Rubio is a hypocrite and a criminal…”
Don’t just throw it out there Lola, back it.
May 22nd, 2010 at 9:47 pm
Yes, Lola…what Flying Monkey said…c’mon, we’re waiting….
May 23rd, 2010 at 6:17 am
Oh come on now Jo and Monkey, you don’t really expect some lib to back up her accusations do you?
Isn’t that what they do? Just fire accusations and insults around without really having proof?

Klo, you’re an idiot.
