Republican Party of Florida crushed
To the editor:
As candidates supported by the Republican Party of Florida fell by the wayside, especially Bill McCollum, it has become more and more obvious that Floridians are fed up with the pinheads controlling the party … and the intelligent voters will dismiss any candidate who can’t think for himself and is willing to choose evil over good.
The RPOF launched vicious attacks against Rick Scott, even bought in Jeb Bush and others in their attempt to prop up Mr. McCollum. It projected, as usual, half truths and absolute lies in their desperate and despicable attempt to tear down Mr. Scott. They called Scott a crook and pictured him as an awful human being … not fit to be a Republican or Florida’s governor.
And now, with McCollum defeated, suddenly Scott who the RPOF said could not be trusted is being endorsed by the same people who slammed him. There, my friends, is exactly why the Republican Party of Florida cannot be trusted. The RPOF is nothing more than a gang of disingenuous weasels who will do and say anything in order to retain their power and could care less about Florida or its future.
In November, any candidate promoted by the RPOF should be defeated … birds of a feather do flock together … and only Independent candidates -people who are not controlled by bums- should be supported. The leaders of the RPOF just don’t get it and, frankly, neither does any thinking person appreciate being treated like idiots by disrespectful opportunists.
How the RPOF can characterize Rick Scott as a crook and a low life for months, then suddenly back him and claim that he is a worthwhile candidate is the ultimate insult to the intelligence of any sane person.
I’ve been supporting the Republican Party for more than 50 years. This is not the same Republican Party we’ve known. Any candidate lined up with these dangerous bosses should not be trusted and must be defeated in November.
