Crist watch

Last spring there was the Arlen Specter watch: How long would it take the Republican senator to drop his party? In that case it was a little less than two months before he realized he could never be elected as the "Republican" senator from Pennsylvania again. The state's right-wingers were going to choose one of their own in the primary.

Now there's news that very popular Republican governor Charlie Crist is 12 points behind the right-winger favorite to be the nominee for the senate this year.

All of this may explain why Crist chose to meet Obama this Thursday when the President travels to Florida.
