Hmmm. Gov. Charlie Crist (R-FL) is not only playing coy on whether he will bolt the GOP and run for Senate as an independent — he’s also not even saying whether he would caucus as a Republican or a Democrat.
The Miami Herald interviewed Crist Monday, with the governor continuing to say that he’s still making up his mind before the deadline this Friday. Check out this question:
Q If you win as an independent, which party would you caucus with in Washington – the Republicans or Democrats?
A You’re way ahead of me. One day at a time.
The TPM Poll Average currently says that in a three-way race, Republican Marco Rubio would lead with 33.8%, an independent Crist would get 27.8%, and Democratic Rep. Kendrick Meek trails with 22.5%.
