Charlie Crist dances away from Sarah Palin
09/29/2010
No-Party Gov. Charlie Crist appeared last night on Lawrence O'Donnell's new MSNBC show The Last Word.
It was largely a breeze for Crist who was tossed a few softball questions by O'Donnell that led to a long series of campaign soundbites and rapid eyebrow movements.
O'Donnell's toughest question - which was relevant to nothing in the campaign to be Florida's next U.S. Senator - was a flashback to 2008 when Crist said Sarah Palin would "do a great job" as president.
O'Donnell asked if Crist had changed his mind.
"Well you know my concern in this race...."
You know where that's going. Crist simply dodged the Palin question.
For those who are wondering what he said in 2008 Crowley Political Report found this video:
Yes, I saw that interview and Mr O'Donnell should be ashamed of himself. Ted Koppel would have pointed out, politely but firmly, that Crist didn't answer the question. And then he would have asked it again.
