In reply to the discussion: Bill Nelson deserved better from the people of Florida [View all]PeeJ52

and I give up. I think Nelson didn't run a very good race, but still can't see how Floridians can vote for a known crook that swindled Medicare and got 64 million dollars richer since he's been governor of Florida. He turned down money for rail that would have been a boon to the economy. He was the major fighter against Obamacare. If Nelson would have run any kind of campaign, Scott shouldn't have had a chance. Like I said... I give up... I'm taking my social security check to Canada where I don't have to worry about crazy rednecks shooting up grocery stores...
