Crist Makes it Official, Will Join Democratic Party

Former Florida Governor Charlie Crist tweeted Friday night that he will be joining the Democratic Party. Crist served as a Republican, and lost as an independent candidate in the 2010 Florida U.S. Senate election won by his GOP primary rival Marco Rubio.

Former Florida Governor Charlie Crist Joins Democratic Party

Charlie Crist Tweet, and accompanying photo at the White House with his wife and party change paperwork on Dec. 7

The move heightens speculation that Crist may challenge current Republican Governor Rick Scott in 2014 for his old job back. Crist supported Democrat Barack Obama in the 2012 presidential election, and embraced the president’s policy on the stimulus during his first term. Crist signed the paperwork changing parties at the White House Christmas reception Friday.

“I’ve had friends for years tell me, ‘You know Charlie, you’re a Democrat and you don’t know it,’ ” Crist told The Tampa Bay Times. Despite often advocating right-leaning policies on taxes and gun control, Crist has been a strong supporter of raising pay for teachers and a voting record in the Legislature mostly in favor of abortion. Crist told the Times that he was incited to leave the GOP because of party leadership and his postions on immigration, education and the environment.

During a speech at the 2012 Democratic National Convention, Crist said that “half a century ago, Ronald Reagan, the man whose relentless optimism inspired me to enter politics, famously said that he didn’t leave the Democratic Party; the party left him.

“I can certainly relate.”

      Crist forgot how this worked out for Arlen Spector. The folks can recoginize a turncoat no matter weather he is a R or a D. If he will stab a Republician in the back he will do the same to a Democrat. A carerrer politician will do anything to not be unemployed like Crist is. We folks here in Oklahoma will lose Tom Colburn to term limits and he is hated by the Dems & Republicians because he airs their dirty laundry that they don’t want the folks back home to know..Push Term Limits and lobbyist won’t spend millions on someone that is just there for a little while.

And besides not everyone is on MSNBC is a communist drone. Thats like saying that just cause Geraldo Rivera on Fox he is a conservative, which he obviously is not he is very liberal. And at no point had Ron Paul or Napolitano ever supported the destruction of Israel, all they want is diplomatic means to come first and only to use war as a last resort. Maybe you should do some research before you two open your mouths about stuff you know nothing about. Or maybe you two are just more mindless drones who worship your conservative authoritarian gods.

      I can’t believe people still buy into this Two Party whack-a-mole game.

      Here are a couple of quotes that might wake some of you up:

      “Behind the ostensible government sits enthroned an INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT owing no allegiance and acknowledging no responsibility to the people. To destroy this INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT, to befoul the unholy alliance between corrupt business and corrupt politics is the first task of the statesmanship of today.”

      ― Theodore Roosevelt

      ~~~~~~~

      “This [Federal Reserve Act] establishes the most gigantic trust on earth. When the President Wilson signs this bill, the INVISIBLE GOVERNMENT of the monetary power will be legalized….the worst legislative crime of the ages is perpetrated by this banking and currency bill. From now on, depressions will be scientifically created.”

      - Charles A. Lindbergh, Sr., 1913

      ~~~~~~~

      Crist, Obama, Bush, Clinton, etc., ALL of them are puppets to the Global Elite Bankster Cartel.

      Play 6 degrees of separation of Charlie Crist to Solyndra scandal you say? Sure…I’ll do it in 3 moves and then some.

      As FL governor, Crist worked with US Sugar to turn a good swathe of US Sugar’s land over to both Everglades restoration projects along with creating several new algae biofuel plants. Everglades and algae go together like white and rice, wouldn’t you say?

      Crist’s chief of staff, Eric Eikenberg, takes job as lobbyist with law firm, Holland & Knight, after Crist’s failed Senate attempt in 2010.

      Holland & Knight helped draft policy and loan guarantees from DoE to Solyndra.

      Occupy Wallstreet lists “restoring wetlands” as one of their “10 demands.”

      Obama heads to Miami in mid 2012 to give speech touting algae biofuel as the fuel of the future.

      Crist endorses Obama for Re-election.

      Eric Eikenberg, leaves Holland and Knight to take job as head of the Everglades Foundation…the foundation overseeing the “restoration” of land sold to state by US Sugar…which happens to have algae biofuel plants on it. Also happens to have board members associated with Soros outfits like Center for American Progress.

      Obama wins re-election.

      Crist announces that he’s now a democrat, with rumors he’ll now seek higher offices once again. But I’ll bet he has a cabinet post in his future. Something closely related to “alternative energy” policy perhaps.

She won’t have to waste her time with Crist, other than to terrorize him, he already qualifies on all accounts.

      My thoughts exactly. One of my pet peeves is that Republican politicians are routinely called RINOs when their stance on even a single issue is at variance with the opinions of those complaining. The term has become as meaningless as “racist.” Crist, on the other hand, richly deserved the title long before he came out of the closet. At least he will no longer have the slightest voice in Republican circles.

      Elections are not about simply one party or another gaining power, if half of the majority undermines the effort on behalf of their opponents.

      Jefferson drew a bright line that sill holds today:

      “Where the principle of difference [between political parties] is as substantial and as strongly pronounced as between the republicans and the monocrats of our country, I hold it as honorable to take a firm and decided part and as immoral to pursue a middle line, as between the parties of honest men and rogues, into which every country is divided.” ~Thomas Jefferson to William Branch Giles, 1795. ME 9:317

      I am going to suggest that for practical purposes, there is the division we must take into account: the honest and the rogues. We must come together as honest men, and insist that our nation be based on honesty, else we will have no place in all the world to live.

      God bless
      S

      “We know the cause which we are engaged in… We fight not to enslave, but to set a country free, and to make room upon the earth for honest men to live in.” ~Thomas Paine, The Crisis, no. 4, 1777

      Correct me if I am wrong but doesn’t anarchy mean no government? If so how are libertarians anarchists?
      Since when did wanting a constitutionally limited government Anarchy? I personally love how Conservatives and Liberals argue when they are the same in every way except when it comes to social issues. Conservatives= National Socialism, Liberals = Communism. Both Liberals and Conservatives worship their party’s authoritarian gods. Have fun with that.

    Really, never saw it coming? By what principle may a “right winger” suddenly become a “left winger”? Contrarywise, I submit that that difference does not exist between repugnicans and demoncraps, they are merely opposite extremes of the American progressive Ruling Class; that we, the conservative Country Class oppose. Read Angelo Codevilla’s TAS essay/article America’s Ruling Class — and the Perils of Revolution (July 2010).

    Good people ought to be armed as they will, with wits and Guns and the Truth. God Bless Bitter Clingers, damn progressives, liebraltarians, demoncraps, repugnicans.

    Crist knows which way is up. He, as many Americans did in our recent election, realized that the more sane, rational people are found in the Democratic Party, not the current extreme far right wack jobs in in the Republican Party.

      Good riddance you can have him. Wait until he stabs you in the back, you will change your tune. It seems you all attract the brain damaged followers. It is cute you try to make yourselves the intelligent ones. You have no logic and you no common sense. When you have those, you would be a Conservative. He came to your side only for the money. The highest bidder. Thus he has no moral code, like most of you.

      So once again. Enjoy the traitor.

      WIPE…I’ll agree with you that there are indeed “wack jobs” in the Republican p\Party. But your assertion that “sane, rational people are found in the Democratic Party” is, quite frankly, insane.

      Re: “Realized that the more sane, rational people are found in the Democratic Party,”

      Could you elaborate on that one a bit…beginning with your definition of “sane and rational” and then contrast it with the “current extreme far right wack jobs?”

      Just so there is no mistake of what you are saying…please boil it down to the essential element of each…ie the sine qua non if you will.

      Thanks

      Follow the money.

      Independent = Democrat at best, Socialist, ie Bernie Sanders, at worst. At least Crist had the spine to admit he was a Dem unlike Angus King in Maine who campaigned as an Independent until he walked into the Capitol and eagerly put on his Dem propeller beanie without a second’s hesitation.

      The very last sane, rational Democrat was JFK. Since his death, the Democratic Party has become extremely anti-constitutional and pro-Marxist. If John Kennedy were alive today, idiots like you would be calling him a “*********.” There is zero comparison between what the Democratic Party was 50 years ago (when it was still progressively liberal) and today’s Democratic Party. Back then, they were still anti-Communist. Today, the Communists link arms with the Democrats. If you go to their websites, they all are very enthusiastic about Obama’s private sector-killing policies.

      I’d like it very much if someone like yourself could rationally explain how the “right wing” in the GOP are “wack jobs,” because I would contend that the only rational people in American politics today are those who want to support and protect our rule of law (the US Constitution), and a form of government that protects our freedoms and liberties, rather than an enormous central authority that controls and regulates every aspect of our lives. I’d also contend that your notions of “rational thought” and “sanity” cannot be supported in a rationally sane debate.

      YOHAN: Agree about JFK. He was a capitalist , unlike the Chicago radical Obama Crowd ! Just read where JFK in 1963 ” wanted to lower taxes to avoid a recession.” Sound like Comrade Obama ? No ? That is because Comrade Obama doesn’t care to improve our economy. He prefers to further divide our country over class/ race ( check out the nasty Troll comments we get here – straight from Obama Command Central ) and to implode our economy ! Worked for Hitler. Worked for Stalin. Potential dictators and radicals LOVE chaos , poverty, and revolution ! They can call out the “troops.”

      I agree with you Wipie, Crist is excellent for the Dems. His record supports this move. You are in good company, just don’t share his toilet paper, especially after he’s used it. On second thought, go ahead and share it for the sake of recycling!

    ALL RHINOS should leave and show their true colors !
    We never like being told what they think we want to hear anyway.
    We respect someone when they say what they think… not what they think we want to hear.

    Example… NJ Christie… Like him or not, he says what he thinks.
    Would I ever vote for Christie? Nope… but I respect that he says what he thinks…

    Same thing when I lived in Chi-Town… Richard M Daley… Never voted for him but respected him.
