Crist's numbers plunge further

By Aaron Blake - 03/08/10 06:15 PM ET

Things are going from bad to worse for Charlie Crist.

According to Tom Jensen over at Public Policy Polling (D):

We are going to have absolutely brutal numbers out on Charlie Crist tomorrow.

Here's a little preview: among Republican primary voters 19% would like to see him as Governor a year from now, 14% want him in the Senate, and 56% want him out of elected office.

If there is any path to his winning office in Florida again -- and there may not be -- it's as something other than a Republican.

There's lots and lots of time left, but it's hard to see how a GOP primary ends well for Crist. His campaign insists running as an independent is out of the question, but in the face of polling numbers like these, it would be professional malpractice not to at least consider it.
