2. Not long. Remember how prior to Nov 4th, Crist wouldn't appear
with McFailin? He had other plans. :rofl:

3. Crist is a governor with responsibilities to a broad constituency
Unlike GOP house members

5. Obama is broadening out the definition of what bipartisan means
Does it mean listening to House Republicans throwing tantrums and talking about listening to bombers? Or does it mean gaining a working coalition to move the country forward?


I was watching Crist's face. It looked like he was saying I will do whatever is required to get my state out of the ditch. If it means pushing back from bad conduct from Washington Republicans, so be it. He must have felt the crowd's excitement and wondered how can you stand against it.


I think Republicans need to watch that new trend in VA and NC. Southerners are effected as much if not more than the midwest in this bad economy. The manufacturers took blue collar jobs away from here in the 1980s and 1990s. Some new businesses have taken hold but there is a group of people have been unemployed for a long, long time here.

Racism doesn't help people eat.
