I believe that Ken Grant got some kind of "certificate" from Harvard Business School but this is quite different from being a Harvard graduate as some might like to infer.

A seemingly innocuous lil bit, 'till you learn of Crist's essentially lifelong association with the Semblers (of Straight, Inc.; see also Maia Szalavitz's article above)...

Florida's Crist dismisses Romney VP speculation as 'silly talk'

HOLLYWOOD, Fla. - Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney stirred up speculation that Gov. Charlie Crist will be on his list of potential running mates, but Crist dismissed the idea Sunday as "silly talk."
Romney, the former Massachusetts governor, was asked during a West Palm Beach event Saturday if he was thinking about a running mate. Romney said it would be presumptuous to talk about that now, but he said Florida has great leaders, including the current governor, former governor and its Republican senator. That's Crist, Jeb Bush and Mel Martinez.
"People talk about things all the time, you know how politics are. I just consider it silly talk," Crist said Sunday. When asked if he would consider running for vice president if eventually asked, he said, "There's nothing to consider."
While Crist acknowledge there have been indirect discussions with Republican campaigns "through other people," he said he is not exploring the possibility of being on the presidential ticket.
"Nothing could be further from the truth," Crist said. "The only thing I'm exploring is Miami to Pensacola and Naples to Jacksonville and all parts in between."
Given that Florida is considered the largest swing state and Crist's approval rating has been above 70 percent in his first six months in office, it's not surprising that he's mentioned as a possible running mate.
Romney was happy to see Crist on Saturday before both spoke at the Young Republicans National Convention. Romney broke free from a circle of supporters and crossed the convention center lobby to say hello to the governor.
"We just look with awe at what you're doing here. You've done a great job. We're really proud of you, and it gives me confidence we can take Florida," Romney told Crist. "We've got to keep Florida in '08."
"It's done," Crist replied, and then joked, "I feel the responsibility. I feel the weight."

Ah... but there were Romney threads already started in both the TT and the Hyde forums and I wanted to continue them... You are right about Tacitus' Realm; however, I'm not sure how many Hyde readers travel there...
