Poll: Floridians Sick Of Scott
Advertisements [?]
Edited on Sun May-29-11 08:22 AM by XanaDUer
The trend for Scott is not good either. His negative numbers have skyrocketed from 22 percent on February 2 to 57 percent on May 25. He’s losing ground amongst those who didn’t have an opinion of him in February and amongst those who do approve of his performance.

And when it comes to the state budget, nearly 60 percent of Floridians disapprove of how Scott is handling the money. He received poor marks from everyone except Republicans. The only area of the state that gave Scott a decent approval number for the budget was the panhandle at 39 percent approval.

Floridians also consider the new budget passed by the GOP-led legislature and Rick Scott to be unfair to “people like you.” Fifty-four percent considered the budget unfair and no majority of a party or even evangelicals though the budget was fair.
In addition, 38 percent of voters said the new spending cuts approved by the Republican legislature will hurt Florida’s economy, while 31 percent say it will make no difference.

And trust Carl Hiaasen to boil it down to its essence:
Novelist Carl Hiaasen fires away, especially at Rick Scott, politicians and Disney
The novelist is coming to Orlando. His targets include Gov. Rick Scott, Tallahassee, Disney
March 28, 2011|By Hal Boedeker, Orlando Sentinel Television Critic

"Nobody knows that much about Scott yet, except that he's a rigid ideologue. Obviously he's a bit hazy on how the process of government works, and also on the concept of separation of powers. If he gets even half of what he wants in his budget cuts, many Floridians are going to be stunned by what happens to their daily lives in regard to schools, medical treatment, public parks, local police and fire services. Try calling the Tea Party if your house goes up in flames."
