Mayor Bloomberg: 'Zero' chance he'll endorse Charlie Crist
We dig reading St. Petersblog, even though its provocative "exclusives" often turn out to be false. So when our friend Peter Schorsch reported that Mayor Michael Bloomberg is jumping on the Charlie Crist train, it sounded dubious. Bloomberg is much tighter with Jeb Bush, with whom he shares a passion for education reform, than Crist.

So we checked in with Deputy New York Mayor Howard Wolfson about the rumor. "False,'' Wolfson said. The chances of Bloomberg helping Crist down the road? "Zero."

"Mayor Bloomberg was very disappointed that Gov. Crist vetoed an excellent education bill and has no intention of endorsing him," Wolfson said, referring the controversial SB 6, teacher merit pay bill Crist shot down.

1. Don't think Crist needs his "endorsement"
Who care what Bloomberge thinks! Crist will do well, and posibly win the seat.

7. Well Bloomberg Can Pound Salt... I'm Hearing More & More Floridians
who are leaning to Crist! I have yet to make up my mind, but "our" family is DEFINITELY looking very close at giving him our support!

I've talked with almost all of my family and since we have heard very little from Meek, we are discussing Crist for the most part!

And Blomberg DOESN'T live here, so he can also suck a ROCK or maybe blow some bubbles with a mouthful of tar balls that may soon be on our shores!!!
