though it takes hours to get places, it's not as diverse as florida. is there a middle in america that will rally to help this guy way down in florida. with the early primary season and contentious election, all we hear about is left and right. is there a middle left in america, in your view, that will care be the state of florida and this republican governor? >> i think there is. there are a lot of people who feel that our politics has become so fractured that it just isn't operating, it just isn't functioning. i think there are people that will help charlie crist that will go down campaigning for him. it's going to be a serious shot at it and it's going to have reverberations nationwide. there's a smalle sliver in both parties that care passionately about the party and the party candidate and the purity of the party candidate. most people just want education to work. they want the country defended. they want terrorism defeated. they want the potholes filled.
