Crist: I was against it, then I was for it, now I'm against it again

Crist told a local TV station Friday that he would have voted in favor of President Obama's healthcare proposal were he in the Senate. That was a reversal of his previous position against the healthcare law.

"I would have voted for it," Crist said in the interview. "But I think it can be done better, I really do."

But now, Crist says he "misspoke" in that interview. His campaign sent out a statement Friday afternoon clarifying Crist's position on the healthcare law.

I don't disagree with you, but I think is true of most, if not all, elected officials in Washington,

Florida Gov. Charlie Crist appeared to backtrack from statements he made regarding same-sex marriage during a CNN interview Sunday, saying in a statement that he does not support a Constitutional ban on the practice.

The comments appear at odds with what the Florida Senate candidate told CNN's Ed Henry on State of the Union, during which he expressed continued support for a ban on same-sex marriage.

I would vote for Meek ahead of Crist. At least I would know what I was getting. Both of them will sc**w us but at least Meek is somewhat honest about it.

Especially when doing opposing news networks. Very difficult to play to the audience.

He will fit right in with Harry Reid. I don't think Crist has a chance to win. Republicans will steer clear of him. He'll steel some votes from the left. Maybe he should just work on his tan. He looks a little pale lately.
