I keep hearing how much a landslide victory for the Republicans this November's elections will be but then I hear something like Rick Scott has been selected by the voting public in Florida as the Republican candidate.
I understand the anti-incumbent fever that is supposedly sweeping the nation, but this is not the outsider you want. This is particularly true if you care about the deficit and national debt. With Rick Scott at the helm his company paid over $1.7 billion to settle various lawsuits brought against them for Medicare fraud. Rick Scott got rich by stealing from the government and you want to put him in charge of government money? To put the irony of this in terms Republicans can get on board with imagine if Arianna Huffington in charge of Fox News.
My point is you guys have a golden opportunity to gain seats and you're blowing it. It has been almost universal that in the mid term elections for a Presidents first term his party loses seats but if you guys keep voting people like Rick Scott in you're practically putting up a white flag.
