Motorola Droid Gets Florida Governor Candidate in Trouble During Debate

To say that it’s a contentious political season is a bit of an understatement. As we inch closer to the midterms, tempers are running high, and the slightest thing can set a candidate off. Take last night’s Florida gubernatorial debate on CNN between Democrat Alex Sink and Republican Rick Scott.
During a commercial break Sink’s aide shows her something on a smartphone–a Motorola Droid. In the video, you can see Scott becoming visible upset at the sight, making some barely audible comments.
When the debate returns from commercial, CNN’s John King briefly goes over the rules for time and then throws Scott a question about the state’s 11 percent unemployment. Scott answers with the following,
First Alex, you say you always follow the rules,” he said. “The rule was no one was supposed to give us messages during the break, and your campaign did with an iPad or an iPod.
The fact that he got the device wrong should have no impact on your final vote. Right?
