Rick Scott Is Evil
Rick Scott is the Republican nominee for the governor from Florida. He won the nomination with the support of the tea party and by spending $50 million of his own money to defeat Florida Attorney General Bill McCollum.
Rick Scott is evil. He was CEO of the hospital chain Columbia/HCA which was involved in one of the largest cases of medicare fraud ever, for which they were fined $1.7 billion dollars. He also helped sabotage the public option.
There are some progressives that were hoping Scott would win because they believe he will be an easier candidate for Alex Sink to defeat than Bill McCollum. I wasn't in this camp. Even though Sink is ahead in the polls, Scott has plenty of money to spend. As he demonstrated against McCollum, image can trump reality when you have lots of money to spend on television ads. Alex Sink has got to win this election. Florida cannot afford 4 years of Scott.
