So, Gov. Charlie Crist remains incredibly popular. By last (survey) count – that of the ubiquitous Quinnipiac University Polling Institute – his approval rating was an astounding 68 percent.
Which begs several questions:
*What would that number be if his fellow Floridians had actually seen their insurance rates and property tax bills “drop like a rock”?
*Exactly what percentage of that Quinnipiac sampling was comprised of still-feeling-giddy, kumbaya Democrats and felons with recently restored civil rights?
*Did we all mishear, or did Crist really once call himself a “Jeb Bush Republican?”
*Is “centrist” now a synonym for ideology-free, re-election strategy?
