I don’t know. You think he would have run for something already.

I’ve been saying this for years, but Charlie Crist is the guy to watch. He’s on the road to the presidency. From Gov to Senate to Pres. I’m not a big Crist fan, only because I’m not a Republican, but he’s not a bad guy. He had a huge approval rating in Florida, up to 73% and that’s among both Right and Left.

It dropped though, down to 44%. I think that had a lot to do with appearance of the Tea Party and more extreme Right. Crist is a conservative’s Conservative, meaning he’s probably too liberal at this point.

I don’t think he’s running for something right now because the Bush name would weigh him down right now. In a few years, when the last Bush presidency has faded more from memory, I think he’ll be back.

As to Charlie Crist, he’s burned his bridges with the Republicans and I don’t know if he can make it as a Democrat.
