(FL) Gov. Scott: I'll run again in 2014
<snip>

"With his political account remaining open for contributions, Gov. Rick Scott made it clear today that he plans to run for re-election in 2014.

“I like this job,” Scott said “I enjoy being governor. I like people. I'm doing my best to try to keep the cost of living as low as I can in the state and make sure that people can get an education and can get a job. So I plan on running for re-election.”

Scott has kept his “Let's Get to Work” political fund active, with the Associated Press reporting Scott took in $100,000 from a group related to the Florida Optometric Association in July. Scott used the fund to pay for television ads last year when he spent more than $70 million of his own money in winning election.

“It's open for contributions,” Scott said.

Asked whether it was unusual to start raising funds for a re-election campaign while only in his first year in office, Scott brushed aside the question.

“I think everybody says everything I do is a little bit different,” the political novice said."

2. He probably will be re-elected
unless FL Dems put up an exciting, dynamic candidate that sets the voting public on fire. Oh right, never mind.
