    Holy Crap, The Scott Just Hit The Fan

    And it left little bits of Scott Crap all over the place.  

    Last night Rick Scott delayed the debate with Charley Crist over the fact that Crist had requested a fan under his podium.  He claimed that there was an agreement that there would not be any electronics in the debate.  He insisted that it include a fan.  Remember the wire that GW Bush wore in his debates. That is what is meant by electronics, something to communicate with.  The fan is an electrical machine.  

    Hey, it is still hot here in Florida and with the fall rain it feels like a 100% humidity. Crist didn't bring the fan but did request one to be put there.  Scott had added the fan to the agreement but when Crist signed he included that he reserved the right to request one to be put there by the sponsors. This is what he did. 

     

     

    After that Scott did come out and debate.  I want to point out that Rosemary Goudreau is a well respected in South Florida as a journalist. The other two gentlemen I don't know and must be from Miami. I only saw the first part because I was helping the kids with homework and was called in the bedroom to see this.  I find Rick Scott too creepy to watch.

     

     

     

    This was his Ted Adkins moment but with the addition of a tin foil hat.  This hit the fan and it is all over the news feed and twitter. I can't wait to see the editorial cartoons on this one.

    This is after 2 AM and there are pages of this that popped up when I googled it. I expected all the papers and news sites in Florida but it looks like the whole country is going to know about it when the sun comes up that "Scott hit the fan." 

    Now you are saying to yourself what was his handlers thinking?  Well...the well seasoned ones he first hired quit after a few months and he has been running his own campaign with a few yes men around him to pick up after him. There had to be panic in the Florida Republican Party during these first moments of the debate.  His campaign has been a wreck in the making.  Florida local media has been all over him about not wanting to talk to the media.  He ducks out as soon as he sees a camera.  He only talks to the public in pre recorded clips and he still looks like he is loopy. 

    And of coarse the national media and pundits predicted Scott's win all summer based on the "fundamentals" of a right leaning state.  They just couldn't imagine us voting for Obama the second time.  What do they know about which way Florida leans?   

     All I could do was laugh through it.  How in the world did Crist keep a straight face?  

    Updated Saturday October 18  1:00 am:

    It didn't take Florida Democratic Party long to start airing this.  

     

     

    CNN has already told Crist campaign no fan at the next debate.  The campaign is on top of it.  I have a feeling that Crist supporters will fan themselves through the debate. 

    Comments

    Scott knows he has an advantage as his cyborg head, connected to his carbon based body, does not have sudoriferous glands on the dish shaped removable cap or crown (the embedded electronics and power supply cool through ambient wire emitters near the surface).

    Republicans in the audience chided Crist, believing allowing a small fan under the podium was a slippery slope to gun confiscation and the UN taking over Florida.


    The guy is nuts.  This clip shows his closing statement and where his mind is." 70,000 jobs in 7 years."  He has only been in office for 3 years and 10 months. 

     

     


    If I'm Crist's handlers, I'm looking for a way to repeat this.


    Scott is unstable.  I think he had a panic attack just before the debate.  I also don't think he was able to grasp that the debate had been on the air for 6 minutes while he was refusing to debate. The second clip shows that.  


    Sometimes I miss so much.

    Momoe, I hereby render unto you the Dayly Blog/Headline of the day  on this here Dagblog Site, given to all of you from all of me.

    You know, the first 'headline' I caught on this ridiculous event was at Huffpo and I thought they were referring to some 'fan' in  the audience. hahahahahah

    Skelator looked like  some strange spirit or something, that refused to be present.

    Maybe, just maybe, Scott might lose the election as a no show. hahahahah

    If you wish to delve into the nutsiness of Florida politics, it would be best to consult a Floridian!

    Good job!


    Thank you.

    Crist has a real mess to clean up after him.  The grifters have been able to do what ever they want because of Scott's lack of reality. It was only a matter of time that the public would not be able to ignore how unstable the man really is. 

    I just can't get over how inept our national media news has become.  


    Unbelievable.   What a maroon.  Did his campaign really think having a hissy fit and refusing to debate because of a rotary fan was going to make Scott look anything other than childish and stupid?   Sadly, he probably won't lose more than a couple points in the polls, and that shows how thick-headed and blindly loyal a lot of voters are these days.  Hopefully, enough voters will see this for what it was; an action that demonstrates how clearly Scott is unfit for elective office.
     


    This is a repeat of his behavior in the 2010 debates.  He got upset about a stool being placed behind the podium for Alex Sink to stand on during the first debate.  And the last debate Sink was handed a blackberry during the break while they were getting a make up touch up.  I don't remember what the message was about but she took it because some one was ill in her family and thought it might be important. The message was not related to the debate. So Scott insisted she cheated. 

    Scott's campaign manager brought in Brett O' Donald the former advisor to Michelle Bachman to prep Scott for the debate.  They were the ones with him back stage.  The rules had been changed Oct 8th to include the fan and Crist reserved the right to have a fan if the temperature required it.  Crist's team was ready for the confrontation over the fan.   The rules had been changed by the sponsors because they were supporters of Scott. I guess they wanted to make Crist look bad because it worked on Sink. Fans are common here on stage in Florida for speaking events.  Crist travels with one when on tour.  Alex stood on a stool because she was not tall and probably traveled with one.  

    I watched some clips today of the debate and Scott performance was bad.  He was not ready for prime time.  O'Donald didn't have him ready but then Michelle Bachman is nuts too. I guess that tells us how loony Scott is.  At least Bachman could string a sentence together in her debates. Scott would get side tracked. Maybe it was their way of keeping him out of the debate and save face only it didn't work. 

    I have never found anyone who would admit to voting for Scott.  He not going to get another term.  

     


    I cannot let this thing go.

    Maroon?

    What do you have here?

    Three or four puns working at the same time?

    Unlike me, your spelling is impeccable, as the Latins might say.

    hahahaha

    Crusoe was marooned. hahahah

    ​Dick the Butcher was a moron.hahahaha

    That's all I got, as they say.


    Oscillating sound waves are hard for an audience to discern, but not for the person nearest the fan? 


    Huh?  Do you have a point?  

    You know, if you put your face in front of a fan and talk right into it, your voice sounds real funny. You should go try it right now. It is very entertaining. I did it when I was a kid. We didn't have air conditioning. Most people I know don't mind others using a fan. 

     


    Fans are common here in Florida.  The humidity is always high and even in the fall and winter with cooler temperatures on some days you will need a fan to keep you dry.  

     


    Florida Democratic Party has already started airing this.  They have buys in all the major markets for this.  Crist has run a very good retail campaign and has gotten a lot of local free media coverage on the news programs.  

     

    I want to add that my electric bill this summer was double what it was last year.  I have one laying here right now that I will pay next week that is $600.  I left it go last month and didn't pay to cover the cost to replace the fan motor in my air conditioner.  They have been running over $300 a month all summer for this small trailer.  Last winter it never went under $200. Always in the winter it was under $100.  My air was not on last winter, that is when I first noticed it.  This is a big issue in South Florida.  The utilities companies have donated millions to Rick Scott's campaign.
