We will have to wait a few years to get rid of Scott, until then we can only hope he doesn't give to much of our money to his buddies(and by extension himself) and lose too many jobs, until that time arrives. The Scott mistake is one we will be paying off for years to come.

That's what the Repubs count on, people that don't care and those that don't know any better. And yes, there are a number of them.

Don't forget he killed off the high speed rail project. which if anyone has been on I-4 realizes was a mistake to say nothing about the lost opportunities.

So lets do this math

3.6B deficit revenue - 4B

expenses -4.6B

by my math he is still 3B in the hole.
and he has stopped over 10000 jobs...

Im not feeling this as a good thing yet.

He also sold the state airplanes because " he has his own" of course in 3 years when he is jobless we will have to buy them again at a higher cost.

Is this the New repub math? doesn't add up to me...

.... more like the continuing repub myth.

HSR was useless, even NYT said it.
The best thing would be a light rail system for Jacksonville, Orlando, Miami and Tampa metro areas, that would be luch more efficient, because people mostly move in their metro areas.
So yeah I support Rick Scott for that, these high speed trains wouldn't be fast like european trains anyway, it's worse...
