I must admit I had little interest in the FL Gov debate.
I was not expecting to see it on MSNBC Left the TV on. and listened as I read up on todays news. To my surprise as the debate went on Crist got handed his ass in a basket, thanks in part to Linn. Surprising at least to me the loser in this debate was Crist.

DAVIE, Fla. - The first of two debates between Democrat Jim Davis and Republican Charlie Crist on Tuesday comes the day after a poll showed the governor's race tightening, giving the event that much more importance. But they'll have less time to deliver their message if a court ruling stands. A judge on Monday ruled that Reform Party candidate Max Linn can't be excluded from the event. Organizers planned to appeal the decision Tuesday.
If it stands, Linn, Attorney General Crist and U.S. Rep. Davis will join moderator Ray Suarez, senior correspondent for the Public Broadcast System's "The NewsHour with Jim Lehrer," during the one-hour debate to be broadcast live at 8 p.m. on PBS stations.
