There is considerable speculation that Crist will use the opportunity to officially change his political affiliation to Democrat. It’s certainly not beyond the realm of possibility- it’s also possible that Charlie may have already made the switch and is using the heightened exposure that the DNC convention will afford him to make the announcement.
It’s been long established that Charlie Crist is the quintessential political opportunist, and he will once again try to convince voters that he is someone that he really isn’t in hopes of currying enough favor from Democrats in advance of a possible run for governor in Florida’s 2014 gubernatorial race against Republican Governor Rick Scott…
Will Crist be able to convince Democrats that he will not betray them as he betrayed Republicans and Independents? The talk around several Democrat water coolers is that Crist will not be trusted or supported, but we have seen stranger things happen. Simply put, once it becomes apparent to enough people in Democrat circles that Crist could win the governorship, expect them to jump on board his bandwagon and then quickly circle their Party’s wagons.
