Playing both sides of the fence: Crist hit from left, right as he seeks the middle

Crist hit from left, right as he seeks the middle


(Tallahassee, Fla.) The Democrat says Florida Gov. Charlie Crist is a Republican. The Republican says Crist is trying to appeal to Democrats. Crist, pursuing a Senate seat as an independent, says he cuts things right down the middle.

So which is it?

Well, that’s hard to tell. Crist’s positions on health care, the federal stimulus, offshore oil drilling, social issues and more have long had a tendency to shift from right to left and back, something that’s become even more apparent since he changed his party affiliation from Republican to none.

Crist says he’s just an independent thinker and has the freedom to come to new conclusions on issues now that he doesn’t have to toe the party line. His opponents in the Nov. 2 election, Republican Marco Rubio and Democratic Rep. Kendrick Meek, say he’s pandering to voters and opinion polls.

Why would any politician belong to a party that does not allow you to come to your own conclusions?

Things didn't work out the way you had planned it
Things fell apart at the seams
What's yours is what you took with you
And what you have has shattered their dreams
And now you're cold and sleepy
Christ, how did it come to this?
Hold on to those you thought were your loved ones
They'll be the ones you miss
And now you're standing at the station
Tryin' to take what I ain't got to give
Oh and I'm so sorry Charlie
I've got my own life to live

Sorry Charlie
