See ya, Charlie. We hardly knew you

RedState:

Charlie Crist Will Drop Out of the Senate Race

The Crist campaign says it is not true, but the writing is on the wall. Again and again the media turns against Crist.

Another blow to the Crist campaign came today as the Republican National Committee’s War Room sent out this unflattering story about the failures of the Crist campaign.

The RNC did that.

But Crist valiantly made a blow stand this evening in Pinellas County. It is his home county. After seeing Marco Rubio win every single straw poll of every single county in Florida that has had them so far, Crist knew that tonight he would win the Pinellas County GOP straw poll. It is, after all, his own freaking county.

Crist lost. The vote was 106-54 in Marco Rubio’s favor. In Charlie Crist’s home county.

Charlie Crist is going to drop out of the U.S. Senate primary in Florida. The writing is on the wall. It reads “Mene Mene Tekel Parsin“.
Charlie can stay or he can go.  Either way he is going down. 

By the way, losing in Pinellas kind of makes Charlie the McGovern of Florida.

BTW, here's the link to Pixie Place II - it's still in progress, as most blogs are. Takes me awhile to find out what each little choice of words means, then translate it onto my screen...I'm not stupid, but I AM slow.

Balmy 27, according to AccuWeather! Frosty, but doesn't seem nearly as cold to my feet and hands. Very weird.
