It may be the most damaging rap against Charlie Crist: He’s a shape-shifter whose positions on issues change with the political wind. “It’s flippin’ amazing,” says one of Gov. Rick Scott’s attack ads, citing Crist’s switch from lifelong Republican to no-party candidate in 2010, then to the Democratic Party in 2012. There’s no question Crist’s positions on some issues have changed substantially since he was considered a conservative in a comparatively moderate state Senate during the 1990s. But the story behind those changes takes many turns. In most cases, political expediency apparently was involved.
