Video: They Don't Do Inaugurations Like They Used To

The more things change

Rick Scott is not the first governor in Floridas history to come to office without political experience. Claude Kirk, who appeared at the dais at the inauguration on Tuesday, did not hold office before winning the gubernatorial election in 1966. Sidney Catts, who was elected governor in 1916 when he was the Prohibition Party candidate, was also a political novice when he took power.

The Florida Memory Project has put the old film of Catts inauguration online. Its a strange glimpse of a lost Florida but there are some familiar aspects, from the swearing-in ceremony to the Old Capitol.
