ST. PETERSBURG, Florida (World News Bureau) - Former Florida governor and current congressional candidate Charlie Crist (RTRD-Fl) had the audience in stitches Monday night as he unexpectedly launched into an impromptu comedy routine during the first debate for Florida’s 13th Congressional District race.
With a straight face and perfect timing, Crist explained his support for Hillary Clinton by referring to her as a "very good Secretary of State," "strong," and "honest," prompting uncontrolled laughter and catcalls from the audience.
"I had no idea he was that funny," said one supporter. "Charlie's easily a better comedian than a politician - he should do that."
