Getting Nasty in FLA

Getting Nasty in FLA

Things are getting nasty in the Republican Florida governor’s primary, which wasn’t even supposed to be a race because Bill McCollum had it in the bag until disgraced health care CEO Rick Scott got into the race and started burying McCollum under an avalanche of money. You’d think McCollum would have a good enough record hating on gays since he personally hired the male-escort loving non-gay homosexuality expert George Rekers as a Florida government expert on the evils of homosexuality. But apparently not. Scott now says McCollum doesn’t meet muster on gay hating since he “endorsed pro-abortion and pro-homosexual rights candidate” Giuliani. Find out about all the fun down in the Sunshine State.
