The National Republican Senatorial Committee has set up a website to help people request refunds of their donations to Charlie Crist’s Senate campaign in Florida. Crist isn’t proactively returning donations made while he was still a Republican — “People gave to a good cause,” he said, “and we’re going to spend it on a good cause” — though you can get your money back by request.
We do know of at least one donor who really needed his money back and got it: former Florida Republican Party head Jim Greer, who was refunded his $9,600 in Crist contributions so he could spend it on his legal defense fund.

Anyone who had the lack of sense to send money to Christ is nothing more than the “Poster Child of RINO Donors.” I hope the clowns that did this DO NOT get their money back. First off it won’t do him and good, and second, he keeping it will probably keep that same group of blindly partisan clowns from sending the refund to the RNC.

'Almost makes me wish' I'd sent the Crist $5-10 so I could demand it back.

Crist is a liberal governor, he was an even more liberal attorney general. As Attorney General his Office of Statewide Prosecution specialized in cutting low offer plea deals for drug dealers. Some of this made the Naples, Florida Newspaper. Crist supported giving voting rights back to convicted felons and appointed many liberal judges to the bench throughout Florida. He is liberal opportunist who will do and say anything to get elected, a direct relative of Arlen Specter.

"Crist supported giving voting rights back to convicted felons and appointed many liberal judges to the bench throughout Florida."
He also supported Obama during the 2008 election by gaming the Democrat primaries, invalidating their votes, with the help of a bill put forth by Robert Wexler. Charlie Crist was the useful idiot for the Democrats before Rubio drove him out to openly caucus with them.

Has Cornyn been replaced as head of NRSC? He's the SOB who gave Crist the money in a legitimately contested primary. I don't like Crist, but I have a MUCH bigger problem with Cornyn.
