FL: John Anderson Sees "Window of Opportunity" for Independent Candidates

From Broward Politics, in a story on the chances of Crist running as an independent:

John Anderson, the Floridian who may know more about running as an independent candidate, sees a better chance for Crist. Anderson won 7 percent of the vote in his independent presidential candidacy in 1980. Now 88 and a resident of Fort Lauderdale, Anderson is a distinguished visiting professor of law at Nova Southeastern University.

“I think 2010 may be one of those instances where people are tending to look a little bit askance at both parties,” Anderson said. “There might be a window of opportunity for an independent candidate here in the state of Florida given the kind of campaign that seems to be shaping up…. This would give a way out for people who don’t want to permanently leave either party but think it is time to teach both parties a lesson.”
