Flip-Flop: Crist Now Says He Would Have Voted For ObamaCare

Flashback: The Associated Press, 3/21/10 : β€œCrist, a Republican who was in Tampa tonight attending the closing ceremony for the Gasparilla International Film Festival, said he hopes to get elected senator in November to help repeal the bill and bring a commonsense approach to healthcare reform. β€˜What people really want when it comes to health care, in my view, is they want greater access and less cost,’ Crist said. β€˜We just need to get it right and do it right,’ Crist said. β€˜Do it right for the people.’”

Go away !!!!! You loser. MARXIST=DEMOCRATS=TERRORIST All the same.

H2K   August 27th, 2010 - 11:04 am

He'd probably vote for a Mosque….er…..Islamic community center for each and every Florida neighborhood.

Stewartsmall   August 27th, 2010 - 11:07 am

Of course Crist says that now-He needs the far left to vote for him. What a disgrace to Florida and America. This piece of excrement would fit in well withj Rang HO and Piglosi.

Stewartsmall   August 27th, 2010 - 11:07 am

Worse yet, hed probably raise local porperty taxes to have us worthless infidels pay for it.

thebritishRcomg   August 27th, 2010 - 11:08 am

I think if many people could go back….THEY WOULD NOT HAVE VOTED FOR YOU, EITHER !!!

EricBrodin   August 27th, 2010 - 11:11 am

Can anyone take this political whore seriously?

rovers   August 27th, 2010 - 11:12 am

Crist always was and always will be a screaming liberal. He is one who does his best to stand in Americas and Americans way. If it is bad for America he is for it. Good for America he will expend every bullet to kill it. Crist has no place in American Gov. His idea of public service would be to help build a mosque where workers won't.

Hailodumbo   August 27th, 2010 - 11:16 am

This is your typical scumbag politican. He couldn't care less what the people he represent wants….. It's all about him and what he can do to make things better for himself. This guy should be flushed down a toilet.

DiggyOrange   August 27th, 2010 - 11:16 am

I saw this this morning on our local fox channel.
I couldnt believe it, but I really couldnt believe the enthusiasm of the reporter who introduced him .
She practically rolled out a red carpet for the guy. Ugh he is so sickening

I'll tell you that in Florida the news outlets are trying to paint him as some sort of saving grace, when the rest of the "whole" country is disgusted by the man.

The news outlets are propping this guy up , if you asked most folks , they do NOT want him for a senator.

Let Crist and Meeks fight it out for the Dem votes. The rest of us will throw our support to Rubio a sure win!

Tomtom29   August 27th, 2010 - 11:18 am

Is there no end to this dickhead's hypocrisy?

RawFish   August 27th, 2010 - 11:19 am

The closet gay Governor finally tells the truth –

Florida already figured this a-hole out,,,,, it will be great to see Rubio kick his ass back under his rock.

BobSalem   August 27th, 2010 - 11:20 am

This is exactly why this jerk is now running as a independent (libtard = Liberal Hypocrisy)

spaceracer423   August 27th, 2010 - 11:20 am

Well at least he is no longer a RINO-
we can now call him what he really is-
lying weasel.

kmichaels   August 27th, 2010 - 11:23 am

Well, it is hard to tell
if Crist is a political whore
doing it for gain
or a political slut
doing it for fun.

Holdmynose   August 27th, 2010 - 11:23 am

Who knew that Christ was a Socialist , and McCain was an ultra conservative? Oh that's just for THIS election, Sorry guys , we so totally get what you are all about.

HeReturnsSoon   August 27th, 2010 - 11:24 am

one of the Worms in our great American Apple, cut him out.

tommyd88   August 27th, 2010 - 11:25 am

What a giant A- Hole.. Scum bag will say anything to try to stay on the government gravy train… His flip flopping only proves that the guy has no real beliefs what so ever. Just sticks his finger in the wind… He doesn't believe or stand for anything.

well here's my FINGER you slime ball……..

SUPPORT RUBIO! Get out the Vote for Rubio…!

Rover_Bump   August 27th, 2010 - 11:27 am

Wow, yet another politico who seems desperate to lose BIG TIME. What's going on, some kind of contagious lemming disease??

Grace656   August 27th, 2010 - 11:29 am

This is exactly the type of politician we need to kick under the table. Get involved and vote.

wimperwimper   August 27th, 2010 - 11:29 am

SHUT THE DAMN PIE HOLE – missy crissie!!! WHEN AND HOW DO WE GET THESE PEOPLE VOTED OUT OR BETTER YET FIND OUT WHO THEY TRULY ARE IN THE FIRST PLACE!!!! hey missy crissie – when you pull your head out of bastard in chief a@@ the election should be over !!! Never could stand to even look at him – stupid goofy – reminds me of pelosi.

Rover_Bump   August 27th, 2010 - 11:33 am

Sadly, the people who would be most perfect in public office know better than to try running for public office.

smellyfinger   August 27th, 2010 - 11:35 am

Flordia if you vote for him your mother should slap your face really hard

CatOnGlue   August 27th, 2010 - 11:42 am

Will Floridians please put this RINO to rest….ZERO votes for Crist…Don't split the votes and elect a destructive dOmocrat.

Democrat_Decimation   August 27th, 2010 - 12:14 pm

"Tan in a Can" Crist sure screwed up and completely threw away his career when he decided to run for Senate, then abandoned the Republican party. Rubio is going to take this Democrat wannabe to the CLEANERS!

GeorgeinOK   August 27th, 2010 - 12:22 pm

What a tool. Who, in there right mind, would ever consider voting for this loser. I hope Marco Rubio wins so badly.

tatankachief   August 27th, 2010 - 12:22 pm

I was against it before I was before it. But then as I look at my bum in the mirror (sorry, that's 'hind' sight in democratese) perhaps I've always been for it, but just needed to lay a little lip on the 'hind' of the Obarry to make me come face to face with the situation.

THIMK   August 27th, 2010 - 12:24 pm

Rasmussen Reports has Rubio at +10%

EricBrodin   August 27th, 2010 - 12:25 pm

LOL!!!!!!!

logen   August 27th, 2010 - 12:26 pm

Live on Cape Cod…just heard that Crist was on Martha's Vineyard today (you know, where the Obamas are enjoying their 8th vacation in 6 weeks or is it their 6th vacation in 8 weeks…whatever). Supposedly, Crist was there for a fundraiser. Independent my ass.

Goo   August 27th, 2010 - 12:27 pm

Someone please tell this forner-RINO fopp to stop opening his mouth.

THIMK   August 27th, 2010 - 12:29 pm

Technically, whores give it away for free. Crist is selling his soul for votes which probably makes him more like a prostitute.

Davecat84   August 27th, 2010 - 12:34 pm

How did this charlatan get to be governor? Announcing favor of Obamacare will only split Dem vote with Meeks and galvanize Republican votes for Rubio.

Political suicide. I love this.

UrinalMint   August 27th, 2010 - 12:38 pm

I voted before it before I was against it.

What political suicide!

I think "K Street Whore" comes to mind .. Thanks Allan Grayson for the idea :)

skipper99   August 27th, 2010 - 12:47 pm

Sorry to say, but this idiot is "my" Governor, soon to be OUT of office. Yet he is runing for US Senate, still my district. GOOD TIME CHARLIE is a WONK when it comes to politics, he is the ultimate double talker, and cannot be trusted to baby sit his neighbors Dog. Charlie Crist IS an example of what is wrong with all our politicians, and should never come close to being in elective government again.

B0BBYJ   August 27th, 2010 - 1:19 pm

Next he'll be for Cap & Trade, TARP, Gun Control, and whatever Obammy's little heart desires.

RobNJ   August 27th, 2010 - 1:28 pm

Everything that is wrong with politics…. Will say whatever he can to get elected. Cant be trusted by either side, you just dont know what youre going to get. If you lean left vote for Meek and lean right vote for Rubio. This guy should be selling used cars (no offense to used car salesman meant)

rockstone   August 27th, 2010 - 1:41 pm

I agree with your sentiment but I say let him keep talking. The way he keeps shooting himself in the foot it's a miracle he still has any toes left.

RetiredSailor1   August 27th, 2010 - 2:47 pm

Smart move on his behalf a lot of rightwing & leftwing Floridians who did not have healthcare will now have it.

Mara123   August 27th, 2010 - 3:13 pm

Crist will say whatever he has to to get elected, hopefully the people of Florida will see Crist for the empty suit he is.

Whats_Up   August 27th, 2010 - 3:13 pm

Being that between Jeb Bush and now Crist …Florida is close to bankruptcy with Sanctuary Cities and Counties. Crist just wants to finish the job to ensure the rest of the country is in the same shape.

outheygo2012   August 27th, 2010 - 3:18 pm

Friggin scumbag. Crist sucks, and i didn't vote for him for Gov.

Patkean   August 27th, 2010 - 3:30 pm

Its called trolling for Democrat votes. However with 58% of Florida voters wanting Obama-care repealed, and State unemployment near 11% under his tenure, Christ is toast.

Tuco   August 27th, 2010 - 3:38 pm

Now have healthcare. You lack reasoning ability using facts. Call it Liberal Hemiplegia – loss of blood supply to the reasoning part of the brain due to emotional driven frustration constricting arteries above the Circle of Willis. This disorder is real leading many psychologists to identify this is a reason many left wing people are belligerent, frustrated, and less likely to succeed in life.

92% of Florida residents had very good healthcare insurance before Obama care. Less than 2% were in position where they had problems obtaining care. It would have been quite simple to have the IRS issue a voucher to allow poor folks to purchase private insurance, and the government to underwrite catastrophic cases. What we have now is an abortion. Already cutting edge drugs are being withheld due to cost. Already people who would live, are being condemned to die due to a bean counter far away. Fact is government care in America already had double the number of rejections for care than the private sector. Within a few years Obama-care will:
Reduce new drug development.
Severely crimp new surgical technologies.
Slow new people entering the healthcare field lowering general knowledge of health employees to save costs.
Make hospitals dirtier than they are today.
Increase Nurse to Patient ratio.
Reduce number of physicians in the system, really reduce number of specialists.

After nationalized healthcare was adopted in Canada the system began to feed off the United States to support its shortcomings. Now America has slit its throat, an entire cutting edge sector of our economy will be severely crimped going forward. As a result leading edge medical scientists, researchers, and investors will shift effort to nations that will offer greatest return from effort. This force is exactly the same as gravity in the physical world.

I have a Nursing Degree. I worked in Canada's system. You "now have healthcare of the spreading the wealth around type". People are going to die in greater numbers due to it. To quote Florida Congressman Grayson: If you are sick now, you better die quickly for the future system will make you suffer.

soildude   August 27th, 2010 - 3:59 pm

Crist – we need people in Washington with convictions, not another hack that needs to be convicted!!!! You opinion changes more than Nancy Pelosi's facial expressions!!

Rhetorical Doc   August 27th, 2010 - 7:25 pm

This fool is the reason we had McCain as our candidate on the Republican ticket for his support in the primary gave McCain the needed votes to put him over the top. I knew he was an idiot then and have resented him since 2008. I detest him now. I sure hope Rubio whips his behind!

freelemming   August 27th, 2010 - 8:57 pm

Time to bring back tar and feathering. These politicians need a lesson in humility.

He subscribes to the Kerry (who served in Vietnam) style of voting. Vote against something before you vote for it or at least say that's what you would do.
They all come from the Goebbels school of lying. Make it big and loud and long and —— whoops that doesn't work anymore – we have the internet and FoxNews and some brave radio stations spreading the Truth.

Crist will burn in hell for eternity for his crimes. He is a traitor to god and country.,

Crist is a political opportunist, and a good reason we need to vote all the career politicians out.

alwaysright5   August 28th, 2010 - 5:16 am

And some idiots will STILL vote for this worthless POS maggot.

Temple62   August 28th, 2010 - 6:39 am

Oh well, first he is a Republican, then a Democrat, now a Liberal but the bottom line is he will eventually be one of the MSNBC sock puppet anchors spewing the gospel of the head muslim in chief, Barry Baby!

fantum   August 28th, 2010 - 6:43 am

These clowns are spinning faster and faster, so fast THEY ARE BECOMING A BLUR. Now it seems the bigger the lie, the louder they shout it.

CRIST IS A DEMOCRAT IN DISGUISE!

A Democrat lies about everything (Obama), lies about his military service (Blumenthal), sells his vote (Stupak), has an extramarital affair (Clinton), cheats on his taxes (Rangle), accepts bribes (Murtha RIP), takes bribes (Jefferson), buys a Senate seat (Jackson), backs underage sex-trafficking (Cleaver), lives with a pimp (Frank), lies about racism (Carnahan), gropes a masseuse (Gore), and on and on and on…

jughead417   August 28th, 2010 - 8:56 am

This is just another example of how the Democrats use African-Americans as a servant class. Meeks just won the Democratic primary in Florida and is the legitimate Democratic candidate, but Christ is polling better. So what do Democrats and the liberal media (both of whom pretend to be committed to civil rights and equality) do?: they screw the n*****r and support Christ, who now flip-flops and co-opts the legitimate Democratic candidate by trying to convince everyone that he has been enlightened on the Obamacare abomination. Remember Gov. Patterson in New York? The Dems sent him back to the plantation when they had no further use for him too. They trumped up charges that he inappropriately intervened on behalf of a government aide, then after he was discredited and the white boy Cuomo took over, the charges against Patterson were dropped. Go back to picking cotton, Meeks and Patterson: the Democrats–your party–has no further use for you. By the way, keep in mind , you African-Americans, that Martin Luther King Jr. lived and died a registered Republican. The party of hate and racism is the Democratic Party. How could so many of you be so ignorant? Keep voting Democrat so that "free" government money flows and feeds your addiction. The Democrats have convinced you that America is nothing but a cesspool of racism and that you are helpless and entitled to a free ride in life. Get off your asses, go to work, ignore people who make racist remarks (much as my grandparents had to do when public opinion insulted them as immigrants) and act as free men and women. Show leadership,guts and self-respect instead of being Democratic sheep and having your hands out for other taxpayers' money.

jughead417   August 28th, 2010 - 9:38 am

Gay rights isn't so bad. It's when the government eventually makes homosexuality mandatory and teaches it in schools and gym classes that we need to put an end to it–that's where the government is headed, I'm afraid.

jughead417   August 28th, 2010 - 9:39 am

The MSM are giddy because they think they have a great chance of getting a win with this sore loser splitting the vote.

maladroit   August 28th, 2010 - 5:56 pm

Last night I proudly slapped my "MARCO2010" bumper sticker on my truck.
Crist is not even a factor after this latest gaffe. He has proven – time and again – to be an almost pathological liar.
The fact that he made a big joke about keeping Republican donations after abandoning the party was one of the more disgusting displays I've seen from a politician.
C'mon, November! Go Rubio!

LaffinatLeftist   September 2nd, 2010 - 3:21 pm

I think Crist is more like a FLAMING liberal!!

LaffinatLeftist   September 2nd, 2010 - 3:22 pm

Uh, NO!!

Chamberlain   September 7th, 2010 - 10:00 am

Does he think that will get him votes in FL where senior have had their Medicare cut ? Is Obama flying to FL to campaign for him, against Meek ?
