I think it depends on what direction the Republican Party takes post-election, with the first indication coming with how they deal with the upcoming “fiscal cliff”. If they stay as hardline and unwilling to budge at all on compromise (which early indications show that very well may be happening), and coupled with the night-and-day difference on how he was treated in the run-up to, as well as the aftermath of last weeks’ superstorm - ie Romney/Republicans thinking of him only as a campaign tool, while Obama/Democrats working their asses off to get help to his constituents - I can most definitely see him becoming an Independent governor.

I’d agree with that. I just don’t see him going Independent. To me Charlie Crist in Florida was a rare case. And I see PLL brought up Angus King, Angus King was always an independent and has been supporting Democratic presidential candidates since 2004.
