Hey..it's only murder...the wit and wisdom of Charlie Crist..

Tonight there were two great sound bites from the Crist - Davis - Linn debate here in Florida:

Crist tripped and stumbled badly and repeatedly fell on his own sword out of his own stupidity...

First one was when Crist told us when asked about gay marriage that he "believed in the sanctity of marriage, like he had before his divorce".

Can I get a Jon Stewart whaaaaaaa????????

The second one was when Crist when asked about the crime rate here in Florida (by the way he is State Attorney General) made the statement that:

"the only violent crime that hasn't gone down is murder"...

Hey what's a few murders here and there.... it's "just" murder... this in a state where the murder rate has been skyrocketing in the last year...

MO-RON.....

All Davis needs to do to win is to run these two clips from the debate as his commercials from now to the election... I think the murder one should be prefaced with a dead pan announcer:

"And now a messsage from the Attorney General of Florida"...

Play the sound bite....

I missed the debate, and love your take on it. So Charlie believes in the sanctity of divorce. LOL

The ad idea is excellent - wouldn't it be nice if it actually aired just that way?

True colors Charlie.

It should be more Python-esque:

And now an IMPORTANT message from the Attorney General of Florida...

:rofl:

"The second and final televised debate Monday night was a rough one for the Republican front-runner.

Moderator Chris Matthews pressed hard for specifics, rattling the normally unflappable attorney general who also faced a tag-team of jabs from Democrat Jim Davis and Reform Party nominee Max Linn, a surprise last-minute addition to the show.

Leading in the polls and outspending Davis more than 4-1 on TV ads, Crist must have left the Tampa studio grateful that he has to hang onto his lead just one week longer."

"Crist in coming days will surely have to explain how he could claim he spoke out against intervention in the Terri Schiavo case when he didn’t. The claim contradicted what he told the Florida Baptist Witness newspaper — that he helped Gov. Bush fight to keep her alive.

And there was a downright weird exchange when Crist (like Davis and Linn) explained his opposition to gay marriage. Marriage, he said, is a “sacred” relationship — “like I had, before I got divorced.”
