Florida Gov. Charlie Crist is refusing to actively campaign for the one remaining state constitutional amendment still on the ballot in November. It would define marriage in Florida as between a man and a woman, period. No domestic partners, nothing. In a move that’s certain to get Florida conservatives’ panties all in a twist, Crist exhibits a blasé attitude toward the proposed amendment:

“I’ll support it, I’ll vote for it, move on,” the governor said of the Amendment 2 gay-marriage ban in an interview during a trip to tour flood-damaged areas in Central Florida. “It’s not top-tier for me, put it that way.”

When asked if he’ll spend time plugging Amendment 2, Crist said, “I don’t think so. I think I will campaign for candidates much more extensively — Sen. McCain.” The governor also reiterated his position of precluding the Republican Party of Florida from spending money to support the gay-marriage ban.

Of course, Charlie is affianced to a woman, Carole Rome, so if the amendment passes, it wouldn’t affect him. Of course, if that marriage only lasts six months and the whispers about Crist’s being gay turn out to be true, he’d want to keep his options open if the right fellow came along.

Maybe that’s why he’s not pushing Amendment 2 ….
