With the medical marijuana initiative tracking overwhelmingly in favor, I fear we’re going to be saddled with Crist again as the dope-smoking hippie masses are going to swarm the polls to get their legal green.
Idiots don’t realize that it’s only medical to begin with. Florida’s going to go the way of Colorado, I fear. I hear Texas is nice.
Florida’s done. Tourism is already hitting up the pols for outright legalization. I’ve seen lobbying material from the Florida tourism industry projecting $400m in increased tax revenue if Florida went Colorado. Then they thrown in the savings from current enforcement efforts, and net out over a half billion dollars annually in their projections.
The only thing fascinating about the whole episode is Sheldon Adelson’s massive donation to stop legalization. Unexpected.

Crist went to work for mega trial lawyer Morgan.
Morgan spent Millions to put legalized Pot on the ballot.
I concluded Morgan was attempting to put something on the ballot that would appeal to Libs/Dems/Crist voters.
The Legal Pot initiative was a clever cynical ploy to get Dumbass Dope Heads to the poles (on an off year) to vote Crist.
It means Florida will be in the hands of the infamous ambulance chaser “Morgan.”
So sad, Scott is a really good conservative guy, but he has ZERO superficial “like-ability.”
