Florida Governor Charlie Crist is running for the U.S. Senate next year, and we wonder if one reason is that he doesn't want to be in Tallahassee when the next hurricane hits his state. His veto of a hurricane insurance reform bill last week all but guarantees a state disaster on top of any wrought by Mother Nature.
The bill would have trimmed the cost of a state-run enterprise that insures homeowners against storm damage. The program has an $18 billion unfunded liability and has taxpayers on the line for tens of billions in property losses from the next major hurricane. The Republican legislature tried to reduce those future losses, but Mr. Crist sounded like Barney Frank rolling the dice on Fannie Mae in declaring there's nothing to worry about.

I wont vote for this RINO for anything. He’s a disaster. Why he is on top is due to media it surely can’t be because of what he believes or does or this story would have traction. I live in Florida and I had to read he read this bill in the Wall Street Journal?
Is Crist queer?
Where’s my post?
Crist is ANOTHER MSM “choice of the day” and should receive a Vote of No Confidence.
Do Not Allow The MSM To Choose The Candidates For Either Party. But Especially The Republican Party!
Interesting analogy, in more ways than one.
