So Governor Crist is on the short list to be McCain's running mate?

[hedgehog]

and we're listening to his suggestions about what to do with the Florida delegation?

1. Crist's motivation is to hurt the Dems.

He helped facilitate this mess, and now hopes to prolong it.

2. crist also introduced legislation to give convicted felons the right to vote...

...remember in 2000 when so many were denied the right because of bad record-keeping...restoring it back to everyone ensures another mess like this won't happen. Crist seems like a fairly decent Repuke.

That said, he ain't gonna get the nod, even though it would help McLame with the swing state of Florida. Crist is rational...McLame needs a fire-breathing wingnut.

4. Plus the Crist rumors would hurt McSame's need to get the base

even more.

[joeybee12]

6. Oh yeah, the rightwing would pounce on those rumors...

...and Crist would have to come out.

3. Crist is rumored to be gay, and not fooling anybody with his "girlfriend".

I doubt it.

[Neshanic]

5. The numbnut republicans would probably think they are voting McCain/Christ.

But Crist has "wide stance" issues.

9. LMAO! Thats a funny one Nesh.

[BlueManDude]

7. I'd be fine with that - Crist does nothing for McCain.

8. Crist wouldn't help McCain with the repub base of the religiously insane

Who are looking at him kind of sideways still. For a republican, Crist is too moderate and too rational.

10. He's one of the final 2 I believe.

Hillary is the other.

11. Crist's BF

The Governor's boyfriend is very good looking. If he were openly out I would be happy to have him on McCain's ticket. I don't think the repubs need any more self-hating gays in the national spotlight.
