After weeks of suspense, Charlie Crist will tell his friends and family in St. Petersburg – and the entire political class in this country – what he plans to do regarding his candidacy for the U.S. Senate seat currently being filled by his buddy, George LeMieux this afternoon. We wrote a post last night on all signs indicating that he will break from the GOP, and nothing has happened since then to indicate otherwise.
House District 57 GOP candidate Todd Marks thinks highly of the controversial immigration bill just signed by Arizona's governor, and wishes the Florida legislature would follow suit.
And with little debate, the Florida Senate passed two controversial amendments regarding abortion rights yesterday that will go to Senate as a bill today and then to the House if passed. Then the question is: Will our (probable) new "independent" governor go ahead and support the measures, or perhaps try to appease Democrats and independents who he needs to cultivate who don't support the legislation?
