Both candidates have until noon Sept. 12 to pick a running mate, and both have remained mum on their prospects. Crist's short list is rumored to include House Speaker Allan Bense and Jacksonville state Rep. Jennifer Carroll, a former Navy lieutenant and African American.

This would be an excellent choice for Crist. In fact, I kid you not, I was thinking just today: I wonder who he'll pick as Lt Gov -- and, she would be perfect.

I hope he picks her and she agrees to be his running mate!

Crist's short list is rumored to include...Jacksonville state Rep. Jennifer Carroll, a former Navy lieutenant and African American.

If Jennifer is qualified to be Lt. Governor, SHE would be an awesome choice for the political ramifications. More evidence the Republican party is more diverse than the socialist Democrats.!

I did not vote for Crist in the primary, but he will have my support in the general...and he appears to be making the right moves in the 24 hours since his victory: from his gracious acceptance speech to this news.

KEEP FLORIDA RED!!

I know this is anecdotal but all the Floridians I've spoken to believe that Crist is the perfect candidate to win in the general election.

He's for lower taxes, has a proven record as Att'y General for being a harsh prosecutor for all who engage in any form of child abuse, and basically supports the Bush agenda (Jeb, I should add for all non-Floridians).

Relative to his running mate -- who cares? John Nance Garner, Vice President of the United States, is famous for saying that the vice presidency isn't worth a bucket of warm piss.

Here in FL we feel pretty much the same way.

Tom Gallagher was in the Honor Guard at Arlington National Cemetery. CC was sunbathing somewhere. No thanks.

Jacksonville state Rep. Jennifer Carroll, a former Navy lieutenant and African American.

Hey, if she's a good Pubbie, especially if she has Conservative credentials, it sounds great to me. Just don't try and pander to the black vote because that does NOT work for Republicans.

Yes!

I met Jennifer Carroll at SRLC in 2002. She's articulate, intelligent and fiesty.

Her addition to the ticket would add enthusiasm to the effort to elect Crist.
