« Blame It On 'N.Y.P.D. Blue' | Main | Election Day In Tampa; Pinellas Nervous Over Penny »
Having praised the heck out of the gov so far, I hope you will not mind if I say, this looks bad for Gov. Charlie Crist and he ought to say something specific about the allegations. This Pearlman guy is increasingly looking like Public Scoundrel #1 and it is not reassuring that a lawsuit says the then-attorney general was flying around on his buddy-buddy's plane, hanging out in his skyboxes or anything else.
Welcome to TroxBlog, the web-home of columnist Howard Troxler, where he and readers discuss his column topics and current events. The goal here is to focus on the merits of issues, instead of personal attacks or knee-jerk partisanship.WEEKLY LIVE CHAT: Join Howard from noon to 1 p.m. each Tuesday here on TroxBlog for a live online chat about issues in the Tampa Bay area, Florida and beyond. Howard Troxler has been a St. Petersburg Times metro columnist since 1991. His print column normally appears Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays on page 1B. Born March 19, 1959, in Burlington, N.C., Troxler writes a mix of reporting, analysis, satire and commentary on state and local matters. He considers himself politically unpredictable with libertarian leanings ("I'm for gay marriage WITH gun ownership") but readers routinely conclude he is hopelessly biased against whatever it is they happen to be for. He is married with no children and lives in St. Petersburg. E-mail Howard Troxler: troxblog@tampabay.com |
I think this shows that our elected politicians can be bought, and cheap! This is going to come back and haunt Crist. It may be grounds for impeachment. He delayed investigating Pearlman until after the elections.
