Why Crist should remain a Republican

Yes, the leader matters. But if you lack any formal campaign structure, even
the best messages and messenger run flat. And the GOP faithful will make sure
Crist has no apparatus in future years if he switches parties.
 
Second, the good governor needs to realize why folks are against him today. He
committed the cardinal sin of not only embracing a Democrat, but embracing the
man who is single-handedly trying to unravel our economy, thread by thread. Floridians
of all stripes can’t get that image out of their heads.

Neither should Charlie Crist. He made a mistake. He should probably admit that
in some Republican forum (yes, even in private works), and move on from there.

Heck, even wise men make mistakes. They just don’t make them twice. So no
matter what label Crist posts after his name come April 30, I believe he’s
damaged goods today.
