We are getting down to the wire and Florida Governor Crist endorsed John McCain for President. Here are some comments I picked up from various locations. True Republicans don't seem too pleased (for that matter the Florida democrats also sent out a statement).
Florida democratic party said:
“Crist: Screw You, Florida. This is a slap in the face to every Floridian. Of all the candidates in the race, Charlie Crist picks the one who ridicules the proposed national catastrophic fund that would reduce insurance rates for all Floridians,” state party spokesman Mark Bubriski said. “So much for being the ‘People’s Governor.’”
Nate said:
It seemed like Governor Crist was a little fake in his endorsement. He said, “I just decided today.” Was he waiting to see who the clear winner would be so he could endorse the winner? The whole thing seemed a little odd.
Mitt Romney Communications Director Kristy Campbell:
“We have a great deal of respect for Governor Crist but we happen to disagree with him on who would make the best President. Governor Romney is working hard for the support of every single Floridian who wants lower taxes, less government, stronger families and a strong military. Governor Crist’s vote is only one vote. The endorsement that matters most to Governor Romney is the endorsement of the People of Florida.”

''Crist is popular, but he's not Oprah,'' said pollster Kellyanne Conway.
And top Crist advisors, such as lobbyists Brian Ballard and J.M. ''Mac'' Stipanovich, have been longtime McCain men. ''We've been working this for a long time,'' Stipanovich said.
