A race between Crist and Davis could be most interesting since Crist has become a consumer advocate, normally a Democratic position and Davis is a leading suporter of Free Trade, something the GOP normally stands tall on.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13037584.post-1117042875427049672005-05-25T13:41:00.000-04:002005-05-25T13:41:00.000-04:00I just don't take Gallagher seriously.

Everytime he has tried to step up and run for Governor or Senator reality has slapped him in the face.

For the first time since 1996 nobody named Bush will on the ticket for the GOP. Thus, I predict the Democrats will bite back. Maddox will win the Governorship, Butterworth will be AG and the Dems could win CFO with Alex Cink. The GOP will lose seats in both the House and Senate as well. Everything goes in cycles, and the GOP has hit a wall. Honestly, Crist could win, but he's not going to be nominated by the right wing of the GOP who is convinced he is gay and also a follower of Bob Butterworth from a political standpoint.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13037584.post-1117027065204421112005-05-25T09:17:00.000-04:002005-05-25T09:17:00.000-04:00Gallagher may appear to be dishonest about his vie...Gallagher may appear to be dishonest about his views but it is the red meat that the GOP Primary voters want to hear. I think Gallagher is going to shock some people and upset Crist in the primary and then win the General by a big margin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13037584.post-1116762839441189022005-05-22T07:53:00.000-04:002005-05-22T07:53:00.000-04:00How low will Tom Gallagher go?

Mel Martinez set the GOP template in his primary battle against Bill McCollum. Martinez accomplished the impossible -- he seriously left me feeling BAD for McCollum, a caveman in his own "right (pun intended)!"Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
