This is for Democrats who are Charlie Crist supporters. Do you guys actually like Charlie Crist? Would you actually want to see him win election to the Senate? Or do you just want Crist to win just so that Rubio loses?

Being from a country that usually have multi-party, multi-candidate elections, sometimes with a need, at the end, of simply supporting what I view as a "lesser evil"...

This one.

So if Crist were to win on Tuesday, you wouldn't be celebrating because he won, but because Rubio lost, right?

Yes, because I don't want Rubio to be Senator, and Meek have no chances to prevent him. Crist have slim chances, but still. A strategy.

The same reason I voted Komorowski over Kaczyński. Sometimes you have choices like that to make.

I don't also like Lisa "What to write in this column", but I'd prefer her over Miller.

However, in this case I'd probably still vote McAdams, but in Florida, I'd vote Crist.

Nobody likes Charlie Crist.  He's just more electable than Kendrick Meek.

How does one "like" a candidate for public office? His views are obviously far superior to the nutter Rubio's.

Even past Meek, who I bet is far closer to your positions that Crist will ever be at any time in the next century? Even despite the fact that Meek actually has principles and hasn't dropped just because an arrogant worm with a delusion of entitlement and superiority wants an easier time getting elected to a seat he never deserved? Even despite the fact that Meek stood to the end and fought off a vicious primary challenge, while Crist preferred to up and betray his party and state just for the sake of ending up in the Senate?

I seriously question your logic.

I liked Meek's primary challenger a lot more than Meek. I'd probably support him over Crist and Rubio if he won.

Who is about as fairly elected as Saddam Hussein was. He's had as many opponents prior to this run against him.

No, he seems like an egotistical attention whore.  Reminds me of Joseph Lieberman.

How so? He inherited his seat from his mother and has never ran in a real election since. By that I don't mean "competitive election" or even "contested by the other major party", I mean that he literally has never had an opponent besides a few write-in jokes. His electoral history as noted earlier is about the same as Saddam Hussein's.

I'd like Charlie a lot more if he came out of the closet.
