Charlie Crist’s campaign has released a statement, which I see
via the St. Petersburg
Times, that he will not be running as an independent.
“Governor Crist is running for the United States Senate as a
Republican,” the statement reads. “He will not run as an
Independent or as a No Party Affiliation.”
The announcement came after
growing speculation that he might run as an independent, due
to Marco Rubio’s huge fundraising haul and his recent opposition
to Republican legislators.
The declaration may tamp down some of this speculation, for now.
But the fact that in the midst of a GOP primary Crist has to
repeatedly swat down rumors that he’d run as an independent —
and that the rumors sound completely plausible — in and of
itself does not speak well for his prospects.

B/S Whips and Chains Charlie Crist is going to do whatever he thinks will get him the next rung up the political ladder, and no one can tell me otherwise. I have watched this man run for every elected office in Florida, and do poorly at every one. He promised the people of Florida he would find out if the staff of Dozier School for boys in fact may have killed a few of our kids, but never turned over one shovel of dirt to even count the remains we KNOW are there, let alone find out how they died. Chain Gang / Whips and Chains / Winds of change Charlie Crist has reached his level of incompetence, and needs to take his rather sizable pension, go home, and let someone in office that will do the work of the people, not just run for the next higher office.

I will believe the statement in question on noon 1 May 2010.
Of course my sources tell me that Florida's election laws require a candidate to file as a candidate for election to state offices as of 30 April 2010.
