I remember Gov. Charlie Christ loving Obama when he came down to announce the Florida High Speed Rail in January 2010. Here was the $2Billion to build from Tampa to Orlando with plans to extend to the east coast and then to Miami. When Rick Scott became Governor, he cancelled the whole thing and had to fight to keep it dead.
The proponents still say it would be built by now, and be self-supporting. The experience with California would appear to argue otherwise!
My uncle lives in FL and was there when it was jeb to Crist as gov. Did anyone remember Crist intentionally snubbing Dubya’ Bush at the airport, even though it was protocol for the governor to do so?
