Scott has been a pretty good gov for Florida IMO. He is not 100% right for sure but replacing that wacko crist was a dream come true. He is also not very popular here, my sense is 100% of the dems and 20% of the GOP would rather he not be governor which leads me to this: seemingly no matter what a dem does, their base never wavers but the Conservatives do not allow for one foible. That is killing us.

On the issues I am concerned about, abortion, guns, even the removal of the stand your ground law, Scott is for me. I am not happy about his stand on some other matters but one has to look at his personal history to undersand why he feels as he does. He is not patrician like as were Bush and Romney as Scott was not born well off. The state of florida will rue the day they put that lizard Crist back in office here but unfortunately that is the way it looks it is going to be as the PR Dem/media machine is ginned up to ensure that happens. His early campaign chest is fueled by lawyers and dopey widow dupes from South Florida and as anyone knows in Florida, it is the dog that wags the conservative North due to the number of libs and retirees down there. I wish we could secede from So Fla but that will never happen.
In the last election, Scott won principally because he was on a ticket with the then popular Rubio IMO. There are no coattails in this coming election. O care is not as big an issue in Fl as elsewhere given the high number of medicare cases here and the dems mine that base to the extremes.

‘Scott has been a pretty good gov for Florida IMO.....’

agree. I, too, may not agree with all of Scott’s positions, but, he’s 100x better than Crist. Even the Tampa Bay Slimes reports that more businesses have moved to FL and Florida’s unemployment rate has decreased. Of course, that’s not on front page. Sadly, too many, go for ‘charisma’ vs substance.
