Alex Sink electability is down the drain.
It is not that Alex Sink lacked for name recognition in the 13th District.
In fact, they may have recognized her all too well, considering her role in the risky investment scheme Florida went through a few years back, which also included Charlie Crist as governor, and while Alex Sink was the Chief Financial Officer of Florida.
One of Sink’s biggest crises involved the meltdown of a local government pool, a sort of money-market fund whose investors are cities, counties and school districts. The fund, set up as a low-risk nest egg for local governments’ money, was besieged by withdrawals in 2007 after a series of risky investments led to a raid on the fund, which hastened the resignation of Coleman Stipanovich, chief of the state pension fund.
