and I have been lambasted for it over the years.

As this sites motto says- vote ONLY for democrats, except in the rare instance where the democrat cannot win, or there is no democrat, and the other choice would caucus with the Democrats.

Charlie Crist in 2010 was that rare exception and the dem choice was never seriously considered to win.

Had Charlie won, guess who would not be in office today? Rubio. And for all we know, had there been a 100% effort by Dems to finance it, it might have swung the Gov. race from draconian scott to the Dem choice too.

In Crist I trust

It would not be too far fetched to wish for Hillary45/Crist 2016.

I doubt that is feasable but it would guarantee Florida in 2016 and 2020.

Why is it Florida governors can be great, but nobody picks them for VP?
(my board name reflects Governor/Senator Bob Graham who should have been the pick in both 2000, 2004
