As America prepares to pick our president for the next four years — and as Florida prepares once again to play a decisive role — I'm confident that President Barack Obama is the right leader for our state and the nation. I applaud and share his vision of a future built by a strong and confident middle class in an economy that gives us the opportunity to reap prosperity through hard work and personal responsibility. It is a vision of the future proven right by our history.

Bonnie Prince Charlie's legacy is that of any another personal injury lawyer, with his face on billboards, bus stops and tv commercials. ROFLMAO!

The MSM helped Romney, just as they helped Obama. Almost from the beginning of the primaries, the MSM was referring to Romney as the frontrunner, even when he wasn’t.

He wants to run for Governor again, however since Scott will be on the republican side he is changing his for good. The Democrats don’t like him so he starting his is campaign to become the democratic nominee years ahead of time. This is to convince state democrats he is one of them.
