Alex Sink blasts Rick Scott
St. Petersburg Times ^ | October 5, 2010 | Mary Ellen Klas

Posted on 10/04/2010 9:26:19 PM PDT by Crichton

ST. PETERSBURG — In her strongest language yet, Democrat Alex Sink blasted Republican rival Rick Scott as a mystery candidate who is trying to buy his way into the Governor's Office, "doesn't know zip about Florida" and whose proposals are "totally unrealistic."

...Sink said she believes that voters who support Scott in the polls know about his history, but "maybe they don't care —- or are just so angry with the state of affairs we find ourselves in, they put their beliefs aside and think that it's not that important."

"I don't know what they're thinking," she added, "because it's stunning to me, frankly."

If you lick your computer screen, you can almost taste Sink's tears.

Scott has begun hammering Sink on fraud and mismanagement at HER companies and she seems to be crumpling under the pressure.

Somehow Sink's extremist agenda opposing traditional marriage and favoring abortion on demand, Obamacare, trial lawyers, and illegal immigration hasn't been able to win her strong support from a skeptical electorate.

I am not sure what it is about Florida Governor’s race and the Republican party! They seem to find the worst candidates possible to put forward (First Crist, now Scott). I will have to vote for my wife again as I can’t stomach either candidate!

At least we have a very good senate candidate for a change!

Scott may not be perfect, but the RPOF sure needed to be shaken up and slapped around a bit and McCollum sure wasn’t going to do it.

Rick Scott took on RENO and Hillary in the 90’s and paid a price..
He openly fought the radical left wing media over Hillarycare and Obamacare and paid a price !!!!

So tell me all about your Scott hatred ???

It sounds more like she’s attacking Florida voters than Scott.

Midterm trolling ?

People can hold divergent opinions without being trolls.

I’m convinced Sink won her last election as Chief Financial Officer simply because she was the lone (D) amongst a sea of red (R) on the ballot.

I’m positive most folks tossed her a bone to let a (D) win a state level post.

“I don’t know what they’re thinking,” she added, “because it’s stunning to me, frankly.”

The universal RAT lament.

I voted for Scott in the primary and will again in November. He is NOT a socialist, and is not a criminal. He will NOT sign stupid legislation. He will not prevent the republican’s from passing redistricting like they want.
Let’s get to work.

Hey folks, Bill McBride is among us! For those who don't know, Bill McBride is the Dem candidate that lost to Charlie Crist for Governor. Bill McBride is married to Alex Sink.

Sink was running a stealth campaign. Her website has been scrubbed to remove “gay” marriage and adoption references. She even uses the name “alex” to confuse her gender. with Alex Sink it is always about election through deception.

Is there a way to find her early website?
