Crist/Scott Debate - Opening Moments

Comment Up

Three points here.
  • One: Leon Wolf is right. Charlie Crist is a troll. Either that or he desperately needed the fan for cosmetic reasons, to keep all that bronzer from melting off under the lights
  • Two: Even if Crist weren’t a troll, given his history of shameless, almost sociopathic careerism, no one should be voting for him. Rick Scott could have walked out, copped a squat onstage, and then walked off and he’d still be preferable on “Anybody But Crist” grounds to a guy whose only political principle is his own advancement.
  • Three: It was stupid of Scott to boycott over a fan, even for a few minutes. Crist was the petty one, as Wolf points out, posturing as though he was hellbent on debating serious issues but not quite so hellbent that he’d turn off his fan, which was in fact in violation of the rules, to do it. But Scott played into his hands by handing Crist that photo op of him alone at his podium, ready to engage while his opponent hid. (Scott claimed later that he wasn’t refusing to take the stage, just waiting while Crist debated the rules on the fan with debate organizers.

Even though not charged with a crime, Scott is a loser. Look at his eyes, the boy is on something.

Well, anonymous at 8:58, he won his first election with all that hanging over his head. He must be some kind of strange loser as he is worth about $216 million...probably more by now with the market going wild.

Yes he is worth more, his company
Illegally charged the government over 1 billon dollars, I bet he got it off-shore real fast.

There you go again Lynn supporting another loser ( remember Bernard) can't you ever get it right.

Yeah, he lost by 17 votes...pretty tragic.
But I can say this--I supported the heights amendment that won by almost 56% and I supported NO on the general obligation bond where it was defeated by 25 votes...not too bad, huh?
