Florida GOP gubernatorial front-runner Charlie Crist says he has no objections to civil unions for gays. He does, however, oppose same-sex marriage and wants to keep the ban on adoptions by gays. Meanwhile, suggestions that Crist is gay himself continue to dog the Florida attorney general, who was asked by a radio interviewer about the rumors. Crist replied, "The point is, I'm not. There's the answer. How do you like it?" Crist added: "Not that there's anything wrong with that, as they say on Seinfeld. But I just happen not to be." Crist's position on civil unions puts him at odds with social conservatives in the party and his rival for the gubernatorial nomination, state chief financial officer Tom Gallagher.
