Crist is not an Independent, he is gutless.
Once again so-called independent US Senate candidate from Florida Charlie Crist is looking to clarify his position on Obamacare. What’s the matter, the first two times did not do the trick? Crist is having as much trouble clarifying his position on Obamacare as Barack Obama has had trying to sell the health care scam to the American people.
Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, running as an independent for the U.S. Senate, sought again to clarify his position on the healthcare overhaul, saying he would have voted against it but does not want a full repeal.
Does Crist really want to be allying himself with Obama in the Sunshine state?
In an interview on CNN, Crist said: “What we need to do is fix it.” Crist is running as an independent in a tough three-way race for the Florida Senate seat against Rep. Kendrick Meek (D) and Marco Rubio (R).
Crist, a Republican until early this year, came under fire last week for telling a Florida television station that he would have voted in favor of the Democratic healthcare bill had he been a sitting senator. He then walked back those comments, saying he “misspoke.”
Crist is proof positive why the American voter should never waste their time and vote for a gutless so-called independent who is merely doing and saying anything that he feels will get him elected. First Crist says that he will only run as a Republican for US Senate, LIAR. That was until he fell so far behind Marco Rubio in the polls. Suddenly, Crist becomes the independent man. Then Crist claims he is for Obamacare, only to backtrack this week and state that he misspoke. Now Crist says that he would not have voted for Obamacare but would not repeal it in full. Interestingly enough, 60% of Americans want Obamacare repealed entirely and 36% are opposed.
Crist also declined to say on CNN which party he would caucus with if elected. Oh really, even though he has hinted that he was open to caucus with democrats. Crist and his lack of transparency to the voters should be a red flag for Republicans and Democrats to never vote for this political opportunist.
“I’m going to go the way that is best for them,” Crist said, referring to Florida voters. “I don’t have to say I’m going to caucus with the Democrats or the Republicans.”
CRIST, YOU GUTLESS POLITICIAN … GET OFF THE FENCE AND MAKE A CHOICE. CRIST IS THE POSTER CHILD FOR POLITICIANS WHO WANT IT ALL WAYS, NEVER MAKE A STAND SO THAT HE THINKS ALL THE VOTERS WILL LIKE HIM.
Presently, Republican Maro Rubio has a 10% point lead over Crist, Rubio (R) 40%, Crist (I) 30%, Meek (D) 21%.
