Crist is not gay!

This is NOT Charlie Crist�s cup of tea!

Having thoroughly researched the subject, Florida�s Attorney General Charlie Crist, gearing up for a run at the Governor�s office, wants everyone to know that even though he is a dapper dresser and well tanned and neatly groomed and not married that he is not gay!

Oh, wait. That�s not the right link. Let�s try this one.

Attorney General Charlie Crist called in to a popular area radio show Monday evening to deny he is gay, taking the offensive against a small but potentially damaging rumor at the outset of his campaign for governor.

“No, man. No. I love women. I mean, they’re wonderful,” Crist said after a local radio personality who’s friendly to him, Dave McKay, asked bluntly, “Are you a homo?”

Damn. I fear this means an end to Charlie�s pledge to host weekly Tea Dances if elected.
