And this is how the Democratic party gets pulled ever further rightward.

40. Very happy to see this hasn't been hidden yet.

So, I'll weigh in. Here is what you have to be concerned about Crist: He has Republican baggage. It's just the way they network in Florida. There are Republican rainmakers which he is beholden to, because they financially supported him when he was a Republican Governor.

Here is the problem for us who live in Florida: These rainmakers are corrupt. They don't give gobs and gobs of money to a candidate for nothing. There are past secrets that continue to get protected because no one will call the dogs to investigate the issues. Someone is always making a phone call to keep the system locked in the kennel. So that means that many of us will continue to be oppressed by these corrupt networks, since people are being rewarded for protecting the secrets.

So, if Crist becomes governor again, all the old guard ways are going to continue because he's bringing along that baggage.
