If Charlie Crist takes the plunge and goes independent, as publisher of TPM I’ll be happy because it will make for a considerably more interesting race. I also think it would be a good thing for the country in as much as it might get you a little closer to a sane center-right faction if not a sane center-right party in the US. Not that I see Crist as any avatar of moderation or political wisdom. But structurally I think it would be a good thing.
