because he lost the Republican Primary to Rick Scott, isn't he telling the citizens of Florida that he knows better for them than they know for themselves? Appears to be another political elitist to me.

Or perhaps he knows what a crook Scott is...you know the man who was CEO of Columbia/HCA and fired after the company pleaded guilty to MASSIVE MEDICARE FRAUD.
"Once lauded for building Columbia/HCA into the largest health care company in the world, Mr. Scott was ousted by his own board of directors in 1997 amid the nation’s biggest health care fraud scandal. The company’s guilty plea and payment of $1.7 billion to settle charges including the overbilling of state and federal health programs was taken as a repudiation of Mr. Scott’s relentless bottom-line approach."
Not to even mention his stirring work against health care reform, while owning a string of walk-in health clinics that depend on the uninsured to make ready cash...

A better question might be why are the Republicans and the Tea party supporting and voting for this crook?

He's proving himself to be a sore loser. He missed the fact that we are tired of mud slinging campaigns that tell us nothing about what they INTEND to do. He's sore because he was proved a liar. His ad campaigns against Scott based on Scott's "scandal" were designed to look like there were a whole string of criminal events. If you'd paid close attention, you would have noticed the dates published in the fine print showed them to be all a part of one scandal. The people opted for a guy who MAY have been a thief over a guy who is a PROVEN liar. Being a career politicians, chances are pretty good that he is in fact an elitist who believes he knows what's best for us children. No more private jet plane rides and no more voting himself outrageous pay raises.

I'm glad he lost. I'll likely vote for Rick Scott.
Scott's victory SLAMMED the GOP machine in Tallahassee and McCollum is pouting.

Stupid liberal elitist
