Dear Charlie Crist: We Told You So

By Baxter

Oh, goodness. We cats have been watching with great interest the latest political developments in Florida. Having just left that crazy state to live in another one — remember, our Governor now is Bob "Confederate History Month" McDonnell — it's fascinating to watch the Florida Republican Party tie itself up in knots.

It appears that Charlie Crist, who once was considered by everyone in the known universe as the next Senator from the Sunshine State, now "cannot win" and is pulling his ads off T.V. Will he run as an Independent instead? Although we cats remember warning Charlie that he surely topped the teabaggers' hit list, we never really thought we'd see the day. But if he's going to do it, he's got to decide by April 30.

The fact that this Crist conundrum is even a topic of conversation shows how captive of the nutbags the GOP has become.

Think of it: A man who was known as "Chain Gang Charlie" is too far to the left for his party. Incredible.
