Michelle's coming to town on Friday!

Wonderful news! Let's hope she can impart upon soon-to-be-Governor-again Crist some spanking tips and tricks. He's gonna need them in three weeks!

Hahah, I love Crist's new tagline for Scott: "Too Shady for the Sunshine State"

Also Rick Scott continues to look super creepy.

Here's the CSPAN recording of the debate: http://www.c-span.org/video/?322054-1/florida-governors-debate

The five minutes or so with just Crist on the stage is so, SO good.

Maybe Scott can ask Crist to borrow his fan to cool down his bum after the long, hard spanking Crist gives it in November.

Vintage pic of Charlie Crist from Marc Caputo's twitter, presumably before fans had been invented:



You guys think he still has the old Pi Kappa Alpha paddle lying around? Wink

Scott's campaign's response to #fangate is something else:

Florida (along with Georgia) is one of the few states where early voting numbers are unambiguously good for Democrats IMO. Thank the good Lord for Southern blacks, basically.

Crist and Scott on the execution postponement

If gubernatorial debates were as widely watched as presidential debates, there's absolutely no way Rick Scott would still be in this race. What a brutal exchange.

I watched some of that debate.  Rick Scott embarrassed himself.  How did this clueless boob become governor of Florida? 

He did look completely out of his depth didn't he?

Democrats continue to chip away at Republicans' early vote + absentee lead.

On Sunday morning, Republicans led by 8.4% overall. Today, their lead is down to 7.6%.

7.6% is still a pretty big lead, though.

It was 15% at this point in 2010 though.

Democrats continue to chip away at Republican early vote/absentee ballot edge, lead now down to 6.5%: http://miamiherald.typepad.com/nakedpolitics/2014/10/2m-ballots-cast-in-fl-gop-lead-over-dems-still-strong-but-still-slipping-slightly.html

edit: down to 6.5%, not 6.7%, even better news!

God I hope so. I just have a bad feeling about this race. Scott's just spending so much on it.

Too bad SUSA stopped its tracking poll here halfway through October for some reason. Roll Eyes

If Crist is the most vile POS in American politics today, I'd love to know what Scott, a literal criminal, is!
