Former GOP Governor Charlie Crist Will Speak at DNC
Posted by Jim Hoft on Monday, August 27, 2012, 7:40 AM
Former Republican Governor Charlie Crist will speak at the Democratic National Convention in Charlotte. Just yesterday Crist endorsed Barack Obama.
Crist attended a rally with Obama in 2009 where he praised the president for passing his failed trillion dollar stimulus.
BayNews9 reported:
Florida’s former Republican Gov. Charlie Crist will be a speaker at the Democratic National Convention.
An official with President Barack Obama’s campaign said Sunday that Crist will speak at next week’s convention in Charlotte, N.C., but the day hasn’t been worked out.
The official wasn’t authorized to speak and requested anonymity.
Crist announced Sunday that he is endorsing Obama. Republicans called the decision political opportunism and pointed out Crist has previously criticized the president on issues like his health care overhaul.
Crist changed his voter registration to no party affiliation after he dropped out of the 2010 Republican Senate primary and ran as an independent.

Does Obie think Charlie Crist is going to bail his bacon out of the fire? Better think again there . . .
Franklin Amman commented:
The Democratic Party, natural habitat of all girly men.
Joe College commented:
Obama owns his a$$. Eric Holder was crawling all over his political finances a few years ago. There were headlines. Right after that he ran third party to try to stop Rubio.
Bob commented:
And that is why Charlie is done politically. He is a traitor to his party and got his azz whopped by the Tea Party. Charlie, go swept up the donkey dung at the DNC.

I heard that he will be wearing one of those code pink vagina costumes.

Here is Eric Holder crawling all over Florida Republican politics in April 2010, getting enough rope to tie up Charlie Crist for a few years…

“Federal law enforcement agencies have launched a criminal investigation into the use of American Express cards issued by the Republican Party of Florida to elected officials and staff, according to sources familiar with the inquiry. ”

And now a few weeks later, here is Charlie Crist announcing a third party run against Rubio for Senate. Is he under Obama’s thumb here via Holder’s investigation? Is he trying to stop Rubio for the sake of the Democratic Party who are very afraid of rising young Hispanic leaders?

Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, determining that he can’t win the Republican primary for U.S. Senate, has decided to exit that race and run in November’s general election without a party affiliation, according to two of his advisers.
Spider commented:
Crist taking a break from touring with the “Orange man group”, a take off on the popular “Blue man group”.
The orange man is famous for blowing around completely at the mercy of political winds.
Since he has no future in Republican politics, thought he’d give the left a try.

Christ is either a sore Loser or closet Democrat (or gay) or all the above.
Digesting. . .
And guess who else will be there at DNC

JohnInMA commented:
All is now lost! Career egotists who lost credibility in the GOP are now moving to the Democrats to be equally ignored on that side. The momentum will certainly crush the Romney campaign and cause all of the non-progressives to weep at the travesty of it all. (I’m feeling very sarcastic thin morning).
