davidconnell is right. Crist sold out. He traded in his green cred on a chance at the vice presidency. Shame on him.

Detailed, in-depth, and correctly assessed, Sir. But I don't think he'll pick Crist on the grounds of the poor visual created by two white haired men for what will be an election about change.

Hmmmm . . . you say that Christ has compromised principle for political gain, but I was thinking his offshore drilling reversal is more of the other way around–his true principles coming out.

I was assuming that his eco-friendly ways were more the result of seeking "political gain" among constituents in Florida, and now that he wants the vice presidency–and as such won't be constrained by a local electorate–is free to support and reveal what he really thinks, his "principles"–which include support for offshore oil drilling, and the larger philosophy that implies, which is that drilling is an acceptable way to fight fuel prices or compatible with combating global warming–both of which I don't believe to be true.

But I didn't know about all the eco-stuff non-related to oil-drilling, like the climate change conference, sea-grass, and solar panels, so maybe I'm wrong.
