Florida Governor Rick Scott’s bumpy 10-day bus tour has run into a ditch in recent days. He was booed out of a restaurant in Venice.
He canceled his event in Naples. And he only got a warm reception among Charlotte County Republicans because their event locked out anybody but local GOP leaders.
Now, finally, the denialist Governor, wanna-be Senator, is finding “religion” (make that science) as he tries to create some environmental credentials where none existed before.

Where is the outrage among Charlotte County’s Republican office-holders? When are they going to stand up to #RedTideRick and tell him to get off the bus and get to work on the environment? When are they going to stop cozying up to a politician who has done nothing but slash help for the environment and pander to anti-science big-money interest groups?Image Credits: (Sarasota Herald-Tribune video via YouTube)
