Goodnight, Florida

The oddest thing about today’s court ruling deeming Florida’s gay adoption ban unconstitutional was Gov. Charlie Crist’s reaction. His administration has been fighting the lawsuit for years, but in light of his evolution on the issue, Crist called the state’s loss “great.” Now the question is whether the state will, in light of the governor’s apparent zeal for the opposition, appeal to the Florida Supreme Court.
Al Gore will be stumping for Democrat Kendrick Meek in Tampa, presumably to confront another inconvenient truth: Meek’s poll numbers.
Critics say that Rick Scott’s plan to cut $1 billion from the state’s prison budget could shiv prison safety, too.
An excellent pun from the Meek campaign, which interviews voters who feel like the governor has “Crist Crossed.”
