She's Florida's first girlfriend
http://www.sptimes.com/2008/03/06/State/She_s_Florida_s_first.shtml



<snip>

For months, Gov. Charlie Crist has insisted that New York socialite Carol Rome is just "a friend," but Tuesday night at a soiree in the Governor's Mansion, he introduced her as "my girlfriend," says the Tallahassee Democrat, which snapped the picture above.

In November, the New York Post reported that Rome, in the midst of divorcing Bluestar Jets CEO Todd Rome, was dating Crist. Then, the governor's staff said Rome, a mother of school-age girls, was just "a friend."

Still, last month Crist took Rome to the White House for a dinner with President Bush. So far, that's two high-profile dates for just a "friend."

Another homo mole. Together with a “mother” of school age kids in the process of divorcing some other player. Disgusting phony “elites”.

I don’t know much about Crist—are you saying he belongs to Lindsey Graham’s golf club?

8. More dirt...
And speaking of Page Six, our own governor Charlie Crist makes the sleaze sheet with the Post’s report that he’s dating Carole Rome, who is currently divorcing Bluestar Jets CEO Todd Rome.

“They met about four months ago and have been together ever since,” spies said. “Carole has been living on Fisher Island since she left Todd in July, and Charlie takes her to Miami Heat games.” St. Pete's own also rented out an “estate” in Southampton last August so his new girl could be closer to her kids, the paper says.

The Post warns Uncle Charlie, however, that friends said the reason Carole left Todd is because he “put a cap on her bank account” when he realized “he could no longer afford his wife’s spending habits.” And you think there’s going to be serious property tax reform?

14. I've wondered that about Governors.
States like New York and Florida, where the capitol is not in the largest or most influential cities. They probably spend more time in the big city than in the capital. Like with Florida, Tallahassee is a backwater compared to Miami. They probably jet back and forth. All the power plays go down in places like Miami, and NYC rather than Tallahassee or Albany.

9. A dinner with the bush?
I'm surprised they were able to eat. Nice to know our US president has become nothing more than a means to a booty call.
