Craig Miller's Team: Bad Economy Leads Voters to Support Business Leaders for Political Office

While Rick Scott and Jeff Greene may be getting the most headlines, there are a number of business leaders running for Congress in Florida this election cycle, shades of the 1990s when Ross Perot, Steve Forbes and Morry Taylor ran for president.

Craig Miller, former president CEO of the Ruths Chris Steak House chain, is running for the Republican nomination against U.S. Rep. Suzanne Kosmas and his campaign manager says that the high number of business leaders running for office reveals voter discontent about the economy and about the current crop of office holders.

Economic turmoil and jobs are the top issues of the day, said Jon Miller, campaign manager and press secretary for Craig Millers congressional bid (the men are not related).

Craig Miller has created tens of thousands of jobs. Hes a guy who signed the front of checks more than the back of them. Jon Miller added, referring to his candidates experience with Ruths Chris and Pizzeria Uno. Voters are looking for someone to take that kind of experience into Congress. They're sick of politics as usual."
