Crist said he wouldn't run as independent, and now runs as an independent

Some Republicans are not taking this well, as reported in Bradenton.com:

Dr. Craig Trigueiro, president of the Lakewood Ranch Republican Club, said there is a perception that politicians don’t tell the truth, a perception reinforced by Crist who earlier pledged not to run as an independent.

“I’m not sure if he’s going to change his name to Benedict Arnold Crist or Charlie Specter. I’ve voted for Charlie Crist every time he’s run for office. We took him at his word that he wouldn’t run as an independent. I’m not sure what it says about Charlie Crist keeping his word, or maybe it says everything.”
