Let the Pandering Begin? Scott Goes to Florida Realtors
Submitted by Anonymous on August 27, 2010 - 8:57am
Rick Scott is making the Florida Association of Realtors one of his first stops after winning the GOP gubernatorial nomination.
Supporters can only hope that Scott's pilgrimage to Orlando for FAR's annual conference this afternoon doesn't involve prostration of the type practiced by Gov. Charlie Crist.
Crist shamefully pandered to the Realtors' association, most recently blocking badly needed property-insurance reform at the 2010 Legislature.
Environmentalists, growth-management proponents and everyday Floridians will be anxiously watching to see if Scott can maintain his business sense or become captive to the same old "build them and they will come" mentality that burst this state's disastrous housing bubble.
