Charlie Crist has a wife. [Charlie Crist's Twitter]

After months of titillating evasion, the governor of Ponce de Leon’s meth-swamp has finally (almost) come out and made a very important personal announcement: he’ll be running for the Senate next year when Mel Martinez retires.

Oh brother, here we go again. Charlie Crist, the governor of Florida, is known for precisely two things: being orange, and having a dreadful porn mustache in the 1970s, which was the style at the time. Everybody likes to make jokes about how (allegedly!) gay he is, jokes that were only made more hilarious by [...]

Just a couple of years ago when the Democratic party was in tatters, some bright bulb had the idea to run a bunch of centrist Dems in a variety of Senatorial races and the next thing you know, boom, MAJORITY. The Republicans may have caught onto this trick, because now they are talking about running [...]

Slate! That’s technically a magazine. Yes, yes, magazine by a hair. Okay, here we go, let’s take a look at which articles this week everyone will be referencing in conversation as if they did not just about read these things in Slate. As in: Q: “Oh, did you know so-and-so fun fact about so-and-so marginal [...]

By the Comics CurmudgeonRemember back in the good old days, when our leaders were generally believed to walk on two legs, to not be covered with viscous mucus, and to have been born from human women in the normal way? Now, of course, we are less naive, and know that our entire political class is [...]

Well here is yet another reason for Charlie Crist, the conquering hero of the mosquito-infested stucco slumtown crawling with felons and homeless real estate agents called “Florida,” to run for Senate. A new poll shows him winning this thing by a mile against a variety of minor state politicians whom nobody, not even Floridians, has [...]

OBAMA CALLS CRIST GAY IN PUBLIC: Con sarn it, only this morning we had decided we were sick of the old “Charlie Crist is gay” jokes, but then Barack Obama went ahead and delivered this line at their Fort Myers town hall meeting today: “Everybody needs to grab a hose, and that’s what Charlie Crist [...]

Orange Florida Governor Charlie Crist is still so mad at John McCain & The Republicans for making him get engaged, to a woman, and then denying him the vice presidential nomination, that he will host a town hall with Barack Obama tomorrow in Fort Myers, Florida, to discuss the stimulus package. It is the cattiest [...]

This winter season we have been repeatedly disappointed by an assortment of famous people’s refusal to run for higher office: Chris Matthews, after flirting outrageously with running for a Pennsylvania Senate seat, seems not to be interested, and ditto former Florida governor Jeb Bush who said he was more interested in “spending time with his [...]

Here is a bold Internet prediction: the newly off-the-market bronze Floridian frat-mammal Charlie Crist will make a run for the presidency next go-round. After all the work he put into his failed quest for the Republican VP nod this year — everything from endorsing the reanimated corpse of John McCain to asking a lady for [...]

SO IT’S HAPPENED: Florida Gov. Charlie Crist got married today, to a woman! Our condolences. [Orlando Sentinel]

Instead of fixing Florida’s terrible economy, Charlie Crist spent a quarter of a million dollars in sunny Madrid, including $1,300 on a minibar tab, presumably immediately preceding sex with his fiance, a known woman. [Andrew Sullivan] Mark Begich, who is from Alaska and is neither Trig nor Ted Stevens so why would you know who [...]

We think Charlie Crist is an overall good guy, savin’ the Everglades and what not, so we’re a little worried for him now that it looks like he’s actually going through with this heterosexual marriage of his. It’s being reported in Florida that the governor’s pink wedding invitations are arriving in mailboxes only a few [...]
