If I told you there were lies in politics, it would probably shock you about as much as if I told you there’s water in the ocean.

This campaign season, however, we’re seeing something more extreme — falsehoods in nine of the nine Rick Scott ads vetted by the Pulitizer Prize-winning fact-checkers at Politifact.
Yes, nine out of nine.

It’s almost impressive, yet hardly surprising, as Scott has used lies to distract from his own record every step of his political career.

The feds said his company used kickbacks and phony billing to steal from American taxpayers — the same people Scott was now asking for votes.
It was almost like someone robbing your house and then asking you to elect him head of the neighborhood watch.

1. A perfect score.

Not surprising. I will never understand how this weasel got elected to the governor's office in the first place. I hope he pours millions into a losing senate campaign.

2. The worst governor ever...

and I also cannot figure out how he won except for directly cheating.

4. The vile GOP plants these creeps in Florida

Another political operative planted by the gasbag party is Brian Mast, the congressional rep for the 18th.
Mast is from Michigan originally but bounced around various positions, including the World Patent Marketing scam, shut down by the FTC.
Someone put Mast in SE FL to run for the 18th. Now Mast is posing as the environmental candidate in a district that has been decimated by the mishandling of the Florida water flow into and out of Lake Okeechobee. Mast is careful with his public image - nearly always appearing with his metal prosthetic legs fully visible.
The district has enough idiots in it to believe Mast's act sadly, but if he does lose, watch him move to another district.
