Florida Gov. Charlie Crist announced this afternoon he will run for the Senate as an independent, breaking with the Republican party and setting up a three-way battle in the fall fraught with national political implications.
"Our political system is broken," said Crist at a rally in St. Petersburg. "I believe in democracy and the right to choose."
Crist, who will remain a registered Republican, repeatedly cast his decision as in the best interests of Floridians, saying at one point that the easiest course for him would be to run for re-election as governor but that people across the state had urged him to pursue an independent Senate bid.

i don't think Regan if he was running in 2010 could have earn the support of the teabaggers.
