Don’t look for a John McCain-Charlie Crist GOP ticket in ’08, even though the governor presides over a critical swing state and is owed something for his key Florida primary endorsement of the presumptive GOP nominee. McCain is a soft-core conservative admired for his well-earned war-hero status. Crist, who is Republican Light, doesn’t give McCain much more of what he already has – appeal to independents.
Plus, Crist is a cheap-shot “bachelor” innuendo and a bad hurricane away from image implosion.
