Florida Governor Charlie Crist, a long-time opponent of off-shore drilling, totally supports John McCain's flip-flop on the issue:
Crist likes McCain's drilling plan, wouldn't rule it out for Florida
Florida Gov. Charlie Crist tells Buzz that he loves Sen. John McCain's idea to lift the federal moratorium on off-shore drilling and let individual states decide whether to allow oil and gas exploration. He also said he wouldn't rule out letting Florida opt to drill off-shore.
Crist, of course, has been touted as a potential veep for McCain.
Update: Crist's about face has been swift. Here he is on June 10 according to a report from WCTV, the CBS affiliate in Tallahassee (yes, their the grammar is atrocious):
When asked point blank if he would support drilling. He said no, and turned the topic to conservation and alternative sources such as ethanol from sugarcane.
