December 28th, 2010 – More Bad Picks by soon-to-be Governor Scott?

Scott hires Indiana’s Edwin Buss to head Florida Department of Corrections; Walmart’s Bryan Koon as Emergency Management chief

Sorry to sound like a Gloomy Gus,but here’s more evidence that Scott is out of touch with Florida. Heck, I raise the question if he has ever been in touch with the state. He continues with the attitude of too many other carpet baggers that what worked one place will work here. That can be the case. In Florida’s history, that has been a very bad direction to go in.

Indiana’s crime rate vs. Florida’s is like comparing a bad pick pocket to a successful serial killer. I’d love to be the fly on the wall as this fellow Scott wants begins to take in the vast complexities of the crimes, people and landscape of Florida. I wonder if he might not bailout a year from now… or some such.

I’ve been involved in some emergency management issues. A cut rate approach might just shut down a questionable project we’ve boiled way too much money in with even more questionable results. Good to see the fellow is from the Navy in that most of our mostly likely worse disasters are bound to involve water. I hope he reads a lot of Florida history fast about how we got to where we are and that we are sewed together by a fine tether of rivers, lakes and streams… and that those also happen to be part of our water supply.
