Charlie Crist vs. Ron DeSantis Debate Review and Analysis
Oct 25, 2022 Season 1 Episode 2
Matt OHern

Current Florida Governor Ron DeSantis debated Charlie Crist last night and we all learned that Crist's hypocrisy knows no bounds. 

Crist tried to pin down DeSantis on a pledge against running for President in 2024, and implied that DeSantis' ambition for higher office impedes his ability to give Florida full attention. 

Crist's hypocrisy and his desperation undoubtedly gave him extra incentive and the audacity to make such a claim. In case you forgot,  less than 2 and a half years into Crist's only term as governor, Crist announced his candidacy for U.S. Senate, and appointed his chief of staff as an interim senator for the very seat he sought. Crist knows that fewer than 10 percent of Florida voters remain undecided about their vote for governor, and he trailed by 11 points in the most recent scientific poll.
