There have been several threads here regarding the Scott candidacy and his “history”. Please search those and scan them. In most of the pre-primary threads and some more recent, there is an analysis of Scott’s supposed corruption and medicare fraud. In a sound bite summary, Scott visibly and vocally lead the fight against Hillarycare. After Hillarycare’s defeat, the Clinton Administration up’d the number of audits from some hundreds to thousands. The rules and regulations are so confusing and convoluted, “violations” are a net given. Educate yourself. He may not be the best of the best. However, the assertions of corruption and fraud are misstated. In fact, shame on Bill McCollum for misrepresenting something he defended when in Congress.

bttt. This sounds like a woman who might want to be governor someday.

so, if Rick Scott LEFT the office, would she automatically become governor?

That is what happened with Chiles and McKay, right? Just before JEB! took office.

You are wrong, I live in Florida and was attracted to Scott because he sounds so conservative in his ads. So I thoroughly researched the charges. To put it frankly, if HCA hadn't ponied up 1.3 BILLION, I think Scott would be in jail. HCA plead guilty to 14 felonies and Scott was allowed to slink away...

I will not vote for him, you are wrong if you do.

If you think voting for crooks is a virtue because they belong to the same party you do...
That says a lot about you...

If we got Alan Grayson because we ran a crook, then we deserve Alan Grayson. I think we got Grayson because he’s in a district with a bunch of liberal kooks.

We got Scott because he stole enough money he could finance his own campain, and too many people don’t look past the 30 second ads he bought with his millions.

While not being convicted of a crime is an indicator, it certainly isn’t proof. We could both sit here and name dozens. And most of those dozens didn’t have companies willing to pay a 1.3 billion dollar fine....

Thanks, jack-off. It's pinheads like you that gave us Obama to begin with.

Really... Exactly how much time and money did you spend trying to defeat Obama? I spent a lot of both.

But then again, McCain was just a RINO, not a crook.

Hopefully it's not something you do for a living. If so, don't quit your day job.

She was very supportive of McCollum. I hope her willingness to work with Scott inspires more UNITY in the FL GOP.....We all need to focus on defeating Sink & Smith.

OK; your call; I live in Florida, too. How bad could Alex Sink be; I guess.

I highly doubt she would be helping Scott if she really thought he was a crook.
