Breaking Up Is Hard to Do

Gov. Charlie Crist was to busy to speak at the Republican National Convention, on John McCain's behave. Crist told the Miami Herald he will be too busy too campaign for McCain.

"When I have time to help out my friend I'm eager and anxious to do so," said Crist, who still enjoys high favorable job approval rating with Florida voters and whose endorsement of McCain helped the Arizona senator win Florida's presidential preference primary in January.

Crist found the time to make numerous media appearances. We are to believe that Crist is too busy to campaign, in Florida, for McCain.

JOE SCARBOROUGH: You know McCain, your candidate, the guy you helped put over the primary is losing, he's losing right now in your state. He needs your 70% approval rating. Whats going on? You and I both know if a Republican candidate is losing in Florida in October there are big problems ahead.

CRIST: I think its going to be fine, I really do. There is plenty of time. I know that Governor Palin really helped the ticket yesterday and on Monday. Its all about turnout now.

Florida's most popular Republican has no intention of campaigning for McCain. Crist makes this announcement as the Maverick's polls numbers are tanking. McCain can not win the general election without Florida. Crist knows this. It also doesn't do Crist a lot of good to support a presidential candidate that grassroot conservatives and establishment Republicans hate.

The GOP supported the disloyal John McCain to win four more years. Republicans are well aware that McCain courted the ideas of leaving the Republican Party in 2001 and being John Kerry's running mate in 2004. McCain failed to comprehend that GOP supported was not out of love. The GOP establishment is now abandoning McCain. The Maverick can't keep his end of the bargain: in the White House.
