Scott's a crook, we (republicans) did this to ourselves.
I'm not sure why people thought a mega millionaire, writing a check for his own election, with all Scott's baggage, would be electable. I won't vote for him and I'm a repub, can't imagine independents or Dems crossing over to vote for him.
For what, opposing Hillarycare?
Well at least Scott is not pro-open borders like Marco Mel Martinez 2. I will hold my nose and vote for Amnesty Rubio.
Now there is a tried and true idea... cut off your nose to spite your face! You do exactly that. After all, the democrats are counting on you and the rest of the Scott haters to win!
Please provide details.
Ah, another conservative eager to help Obama in a skirt get elected. Great. Good thing you don't care about Obama's socialized healthcare, because that lawsuit will end as soon as she's elected. What's one less state standing in opposition? Don't like your guns? Good, because Obama in a skirt will gladly take them from you. You say you like open borders? Excellent. Alex Sink likes them too. If you think tenure for teachers is good for public education then you're gonna love helping Alex get elected. Higher taxes to pay for more spending? With your support it can become a reality. Are you pro-abortion? Well, whaddya know, so is Alex. Do ya love what Obama is doing in DC? So does Alex.
Yeah, there's so much to be gained from sitting on the sidelines. Getting nothing that we want is the best way to teach those Republicans a lesson. Now, let's go on FR and tell everyone we're going to help a rat get elected. Good grief. McCollum is still pouting and whining about being denied his entitlement while the state's future rests in the balance. The stupid party marches on. I never expected to see suicide conservatives on FR, but here they are.
What a disappointment.
Reno and Clinton went after him and all Healthcare Execs in the 90’s that lobbied and killed Hillary care !
he was warned and so were other Execs that they would pay and they did.
You can charge any company of Medicare fraud because their is a huge gray area in the billing rules which change daily and are made retroactively .
Reno and Clinton knew that and used it as a weapon.
I just love how all these uninformed posters make these
wild claims.
Scott won because he’s the outsider. McCollum was the establishment-backed candidate. And the Florida GOP voters want nothing to do with the state GOP. The voters did the same thing by rejecting Charlie Crist and backing Rubio. The Florida GOP establishment has lost control. They are facing a revolt from their own voters.
Same thing is happening right now in Delaware. The voters would rather lose the election than allow a RINO or an establishment candidate to win. Voters now want outsiders and a new kind of politician than these career guys.
“Scott’s a crook, we (republicans) did this to ourselves.”
Hey Robbin, don’t be so rough on yourself.
Do some research. Rick Scott was never even accused of wrong doing, much less charged or convicted.
Hundreds of hospitals were targeted and fined in the Clinton smackdown of hospitals including Columbia HCA. They didn’t conform to Hillarycare. I was surprised Duke University Hospital was one. I am an original Memphian, and I couldn’t believe our St. Jude Childrens Hospital in Memphis was another.
Do yourself and all patriots a favor. Vote Scott.
Then you are a fool. Because redistricting is coming up and for a Republican to win nationally they need Florida. Pray tell how our interests are served by allowing a Democrat to redesign districts?
I don’t care how bad he may or may not be. The other guy was no prize himself. Redistricting trumps quality of candidates. People can fight over Senators all they want but when it comes to the Governor races it is necessary to pull that lever for the “r” ONLY until lines are redrawn. I don’t advocate people swallowing principles on the whole anymore, but on this issue I do. Can’t fight for a good candidate if Democrats gerrymander the ability to get one elected out of existence.
Scott used $5 million of his own money and up to $15 million more from supporters to try to build resistance to any government-run program. The campaign was coordinated by CRC Public Relations, the group that masterminded the “Swift boat” attacks on John Kerry.
