Is Gov Charlie Crist Gay?
Reading some blogs today. All talking about how "Stone Gay" Crist is? At first I thought it was just backlash because Crist endorsed off-shore drilling in Florida. But after reading the blogs, I'm not so sure he isn't gay? (BTW, I'm not anti gay or Homophobic) I'm waiting to see what the Tourist Industry says about Crist for endorsing Off Shore Drilling? What a wonderful idea Charlie. The only industry we have in Florida, and one oil spill would wipe it out. Way to go, since any new oil will be sold into the world market and we'll never see a drop in gas prices. If Crist is gay, he should make a good VP for McCain. I'm sure Crist will go over big with the Fundie Republicans.

1. Well, it certainly has nothing to do with the off-shore drilling thing...
the rumors were around way before Crist came out in favor of it. But they're still just rumors. A local altweekly covered this in depth back when Crist was running for governor.

2. Wow......what a story.
Thanks for link Stepp. That explains a lot. At first I didn't know how I missed so much during the election? But I see now that the press, for the most part, handed him the Gov's job. (Talk about a 'smoking gun?) Well, I digress. This oil drilling thing should be interesting. There was a time when anyone in Florida who mentioned offshore drilling was met by the kiss of death. Reading the papers today, it looks like Crist (with the help of the MSM and the Republican Party) may pull it off this time?

3. Yeah, they very well may pull it off. I don't think the current Florida electorate...
is the same as in previous cycles. There seems to be much more openness to the idea of offshore drilling. That said, the recent polls showing Obama taking a lead in this state are pretty comforting.

4. ..almost forgot the best part.... lol
...after reading about the Crist scandal... i read this and almost did a coffee snark.... :-)http://www.browardpalmbeach.com/2006-10-19/news/charlie-crist-is-not-gay/full

"If Charlie Crist were gay, says Sid Dinerstein, chair of the Palm Beach Republican Committee, it wouldn't matter. Republicans don't hate gays, he says. They never have.

OK..sure.. we believe that!

5. I saw him at the Breakers with his girlfriend, "America's Hottest Mom"
I saw them the night this photo was taken:


Are they still dating? I'm not sure.

AND, I'd swear the dude checked me out that night(and I'm a chick btw). No way he's gay!

8. Just because...
... he's thin, neat, and dresses well doesn't mean he's gay!

Not that there's anything wrong with that.

9. He's been reported gay for years...
Several partners have said they were with him. He also has settled a paternity suit. I'd say he seems to be bisexual. He's been good at covering up his tracks though. I saw him July 4th in St. Pete before the fireworks with his new fiance.

13. I don't really care about his personal life.. But I hate his politics..
I hope he goes bye-bye in 2010. He's done nothing but prop up his cronies. He sucks just as bad a Bush... AND his seat was contested in court, not sure what happened with that..

11. It is a truth..
It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single Republican Governor, in possession of a good political fortune, must be in want of a wife (in posession of a much larger fortune!)

17. governors, governors, governors...
Who knows if he's gay, but he is in bed with the neocons and big oil....so I don't know what that makes him - poor governor? :/ We need a governor that accepts tourism as something Florida needs, and will continue to need.

I don't know how many americans and foreigners want to visit florida for beautiful sand beaches with oil tar pits to swim in, surrounded by dead aquatic animals.

(And while they are on vacation - They still pay high gas prices..EEK!)
