Florida republicans and Rick Scott?!

[sixmile]

Corporate welfare queen, Rick Scott, is winning for the republican governor's race in Florida against Attorney General Bill McCollum.

It now appears republican voters would rather run a man who ripped off taxpayers for millions of dollars and refuses to talk about it simply for the sake of running an 'outsider.'

The only reason I can come up with is they believe if they have a millionaire candidate that will make them feel more worthy.

I am an Alex Sink supporter all the way and can't wait for her to trounce whichever crap candidate the opposition fields in November!

5. I hope so too, but I am not counting my chickens just yet.

Rubio has the right wingers super charged up to come out and vote and they might make the difference in the governor's race.

7. K/R +100

This only proves to me there is no hope for Florida... a population of Faux News Zombies sitting in their condos and mobile homes, waiting to die. They are beyond brian-dead.

The mindless knuckle-draggin' mouth-breathing Evangelicals want Rick Scott... a career Felon. They see no problem with this... ? Business as usual and they'll also send Marco Rubio (aka 'Lil Jeb) to the Senate.

8. Is it possible that they voted against all those Bush endorsements

'Velly' interesting.

Great news for Dems - the Medifraud guy is winning.

9. Sink is gonna destroy Scott. Any debate will be a massacre.

11. Take a look at the primary returns before you say that.

The rethugs had over 1 million turn out to vote in their primary versus around 750k on the Democratic side with about 71.4% of the vote in. The rethugs are fired up in Florida and that might be enough to carry Scott in the general.

12. For the primary they sure are.

I expected as much.

13. alex sink is going to kick his medicaid-frauding ass.

14. Brain dead Fox seniors vote for the candidate whose company under

his watch stole their Medicare money. There is no hope.
