The Crist-Rubio Senate primary race down in Florida is beginning to be a blowout for Marco Rubio. There’s been all kinds of rumors that Crist would switch parties or become independent, which he denies. There’s a brewing scandal on some expenses that Rubio charged to a state party credit card, including $130 at a hair salon (Republicans have a haircut price obsession). Crist is implying that the price is for more than just a haircut:
Appearing on Greta Van Susteren’s show on Fox News last night, Crist (R-FL) attacked Rubio over the recent dust-up over his Republican Party of Florida credit card charges, including for a $130 haircut.
“Or maybe it was a back wax — we are not sure what all he got at that place,” Crist said. Van Susteren seemed surprised by the allegation, asking, “[W]as there a suggestion it was for a back wax or are you being flip?”
Crist – sort of – backed down: “I don’t know what it was. Initially we were told it was a haircut. And then he said it wasn’t a haircut.”
Oh yes, he went there. Charlie Crist accused Marco Rubio of getting his back waxed. Oh, by the way, Charlie Crist says he pays $11 for his haircuts.
