Scott - Carroll: The Same Old Song

Praise be, Florida is blessed with a brand spanking new political duo. I am all a-twitter. But, before we get too excited about the Scott - Carroll ticket we should probably accept the fact that the Captain and Tennille of the Tallahassee Parkway these two are not. Why, you may ask?

It is because these two crooners are singing the same old, tired song, and with nary a "greatest hits" between them. On their recent "traveling medicine show" through our fair state, Scott (R - Here's how we did it up north) and Jennifer Carroll (R - What he said) started off with an attack on Alex Sink by calling her a Socialist Sympathizer. Horrors! They also paid lip service to the importance of creating jobs and how Florida needs to take an Arizona kind of approach to the immigration problem that we apparently do not have. Same old song with the same old tune! If you don't have a platform, then spew out political platitudes and attack ads.

Scott essentially said that since he doesn't know dick about the political system in Florida that it might be a nifty idea to have someone who could help him discern the difference between shit and Shinola. In their combined web site Scott and Carroll for Florida, she is described as his "running mate to turn Florida around."

Holy crap, and I thought we were backward enough already. Besides, the country looks really dorky with Florida facing the other way. Really, let's not turn it around.


Come on Scott - submit a business plan to the Florida voters...something substantive. It would be a welcome change from the "same old, same old." Better yet...keep doing what you are doing and maybe Alex Sink can stuff your "pickle head" back in the jar.

My thanks to Almost Dorothy for pickle head. That amuses me.
