FLORIDA: Scott Vs. Sink A Toss-Up
Democratic nominee Alex Sink is barely leading teabagger and scam artist Rick Scott in the polling for Florida governor. As the co-founder and CEO of Columbia/HCA, the nation's largest for-profit hospital chain, Scott was at the helm of the largest Medicare fraud case in American history, with his company eventually paying the largest federal fine of all time, $1.7B.
Scott is also the founder of the astroturf group, Conservatives For Patient Rights, which pretends to be a citizens group advocating for less government oversight of the health care industry. That's all fine with the teabaggers, who wouldn't mind seeing the all-time biggest defrauder of Medicare running the state of Florida.
