Inside Baseball

Interesting inside baseball going on between Charlie Crist and Allan Bense. Crist passed over Bense for Jim Greer to be the next chair of the Florida Republican Party. Next Crist took Bense off of the Florida State University Board of Trustees.

Campaign Manager correctly points out that Crist and Bense were both from the moderate wing of the party. But Greer worked on Crist's campaign. That gave Greer the inside track. Crist was been firmly against Jeb Bush's last minute appointments. Bense is a Florida State alumni. I imagine Jeb appointed him to the board as a political reward. This has the perception of a diss.
