If Rick Scott's fraud convictions are ignored during this election then we deserve to get him

as a senator.

I could not believe that the man was elected governor twice. And I think it was because his business's medicare fraud was never flooded the airwaves like it should have been and thus any people probably don't know anything about it.

We cannot afford to have a blue seat turn red!

from them and is convicted of it.

The only hope this nation had of surviving was there is more of us than them, but with putin and rump now, that doesnt matter.

I think a lot of people don't know about it because it hasn't been harped on. At least I hope that is the reason.

The Retugs spread negative ads about our candidates that are often not even true.

But didn't Rick Scott at one time head up HCA ? (Hospital Corp of America)

I'm trying to make the connection here. Just curious.

Oddly enough, his party will try and destroy both. One of their excuses is that people defraud medicare and/or medicaid.

with negative ads. Ours would have the benefit of actually being true.

can too.

I don't know why Dems always think that negative ads are not a good idea. The GOP has gotten far with them and they often make the shit up
