Charlie Crist endorses — Obama?

Yup, the craven ex-GOP opportunist pulled a flip-flopping Romney right there in the pages of today's Tampa Bay Times:

...As Republicans gather in Tampa to nominate Mitt Romney, Americans can expect to hear tales of how President Obama has failed to work with their party or turn the economy around.

      But an element of their party has pitched so far to the extreme right on issues important to women, immigrants, seniors and students that they've proven incapable of governing for the people. Look no further than the inclusion of the Akin amendment in the Republican Party platform, which bans abortion, even for rape victims.

      The truth is that the party has failed to demonstrate the kind of leadership or seriousness voters deserve.

     ...President Obama has a strong record of doing what is best for America and Florida, and he built it by spending more time worrying about what his decisions would mean for the people than for his political fortunes. That's what makes him the right leader for our times, and that's why I'm proud to stand with him today.
