Governor Rick Scott was set to debate against Charlie Crist Wednesday night but things got off to a rough start.
Apparently, Crist likes to be cool while he’s up on stage, so he brought with him a portable fan. The fan was hidden behind his podium and it could’ve gone completely unnoticed if Scott hadn’t of made a big deal of it.
That moment when Florida gov debate was like husband’s thermostat argument w/menopausal wife. #BeenThere http://t.co/uHMk7wzULS

Scott refused to come out on the stage because of this cooling device and the moderators of the debate were stumped. Why would the Governor of Florida make such a huge stink over a small, portable fan that was there to keep his opponent cool?
Gov, Rick Scott is refusing to show up at the press debate because Charlie Crist has a fan under his podium. This is not a joke it appears

Isn’t sad our Gov Rick Scott was more concerned about a fan than about the consumer, premium payer, utility payer, the little guy and gal.
