Florida governor Charlie Crist, a potential Vice Presidential candidate for Republican John McCain, is engaged to Carole Rome after an intense and brief courtship.

Charlie Crist’s girlfriend is a 1992 honors graduate of Georgetown University who became president of her family’s century-old Halloween business in 2000 after her father passed away. She added a line of “sexy” Halloween costumes to Franco American Novelty Co. LLC’s goods and works with her mother and sister.
She has been a resident of Miami Florida since 2006. *Charlie* Crist has been a bachelor about town since his brief( 1979-1980 ) marriage ended.

Her future hubby is also rumored to be on the short list of Sen. John McCain’s VP candidates, and some are viewing this engagement with a bit of scepticism. The radical left wing nuts are convinced that the Governor is gay, and this is just a cover up.

The engagement does seem very quick for a man that hasn’t been married for nearly 30 years and even then not very successfully.

Is Crist gay? I personally don’t care but red flags to go up when something out of character happens during an election cycle, especially when that person is being mentioned for the Presidency or Vice Presidency.
