At the White House. I wish there would have been some type of fraternity-like ceremony for this.

I think Charlie would have enjoyed getting "disciplined" with a paddle by Obama a little too much.

Don't worry, we'll take any GOP members you don't want. All are welcome! One of us! One of us! Gooble-gobble, gooble-gobble!

I wonder if he's gearing up for a 2016 rematch?  I think his abandoning the party was done in bad faith.  He seems to be in it for him, not for his ideals.

Indeed. Here's something that got passed around a lot during his senate candidacy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0pM06Lu5A50

And no matter how bad her campaign was last time, I still believe Sink would run better then Crist against Scott. But there's nothing thats gonna stop Charlie from pushing ahead at this point.

Who cares?  Charlie Crist is yesterday's news.  He's trying so desperately to stay relevant, but to no avail.

The once and future Governor. But really, who does this surprise? The guy's been an advocate for teachers, a leader for civil rights (as governor and as AG), has a fairly pro-abortion rights voting record in the legislature, and works for a leading trial lawyer and Democratic fundraiser, and that's before the Obama stuff.

It will certainly be interesting to see if FL Dems accept Crist as their messiah.

Meh, Crist is going to be yet another Blue Dog in a party that's increasingly becoming more progressive.
