When will Crist stop running Galas and get to work fixing the economy?

Tallahassee, FL - Today the Republican Governor's Association announced its new leadership team, including Empty Chair Charlie as their new Party-Planner-in-Chief.

"Really... How is it that Empty Chair Charlie finds time to coordinate the catering and decorations for Galas, sip lattes at Parisian cafes, and jet set around the nation, yet our part time governor still can't find the time to help Floridians struggling under the Republicans' failed economic polices. Clearly Crist is not only an Empty Chair but also an Empty Suit, completely out of touch with Florida. At a time when the Sunshine State is in recession for the first time in 16 years, our state leads the nation in job losses, and a record number of Floridians are being foreclosed upon, our governor should be working to jumpstart Florida's economy. Unfortunately, Charlie Crist continues his attempt to govern from an empty chair," said Florida Democratic Party Spokesman Eric Jotkoff.
