re: #24 What, me worry?

In the end, I don’t think this matters all that much to the voter. It’s not going to sway Republicans or Democrats. It may have some influence on Indies, but historically anyway, people don’t really give a crap. They want to focus on more tangible issues, preferably those they can relate to like taxes, jobs, economy, healthcare (where Republicans fail miserably).

Case in point, Rick Scott was the acting CEO of Columbia Healthcare System which perpetuated the largest Medicaid/Medicare fraud in our nations history. Then he ran for Florida Governor… and well… you know the rest.

It pretty much undermines the entirety of Romney’s campaign story, namely “I’m a successful businessman who knows how to create jobs.” He’s been able to dodge Bain’s darker moments between the years of ‘99 and ‘02 for the longest time by insisting he wasn’t there, he was too busy with the Olympics. Now that’s all been shredded by the reality that, even if he was not personally partaking in day-to-day decisions, he was in charge and the buck stopped at his desk.
