Kudlow report on CNBC to have Rick Scott on tonight and 7 pm. Maybe he will actually answer a question.

Mango23,

Considering your earlier comment about Scott:

"Although he runs away from any reporters or news in general other the Fox" I'd think it would be you who should be falling over. ;-)

We will have to see. It is a business channel and I would think he may fell comfortable. No one is looking to see "Got ya" questions, just answer something directly. Last week some reporters tried to do a walking interview, just a few questions, as they do with every politician. It was unbelievable. Scotts coat was flapping in the breeze as he actually ran. I am not kidding he ran. Not even a "I will talk to you later or I am late or even "No comment". He ran to his car as people ran interference between him and the guys trying to ask a questions.

If he takes the 5th two more times it'll be a new indoor record

I'm just joking with you. If I remember to watch it, I'll take a look. As I've said, deal with facts and I'm with you. Deal in non-facts or innuendo (like he ran away from reporters as if to suggest he was afraid of answering questions) and I'll see for myself. Perhaps the guy was late for something or being hounded by obnoxious seekers of gotcha soundbites. For me, that scenario is just as plausible as he ran away from reporters to avoid having to answer their sincere questions.

When we had our governor election, I was disgusted with both candidates but I kept coming back to this: if Scott was the weasel and crook he was being portrayed to be, why wasn't he indicted. I searched the web for an article that described the actual situation and finally came across one (wish I could remember where) that didn't have an ax to grind and in that account, the fact was that Scott's company did nothing out of the ordinary for the time. His company was doing things the way things were done at that time (even though they were not the best practices) until he spoke out against Hillary's attempt to change healthcare. After that, the government went after his company and basically made an example of them. I'm not defending the guy but things are often not the way they seem or are portrayed in a :30 attack commercial and you have to look deeper to find the truth. Anyway, let's see what happens tonight but I wouldn't expect much in the way of neutral questions or open answers.

Kudlow is right on Scott's side. The toughest question he'll ask him is what he had for breakfast this morning.

I see not being able to give a straight answer under any circumstances has always been a character flaw of his.

I just zoomed thru a recording of the show and didn't see him at all. Did you guys see something I didn't?
