He has the appeal of a turd. How did he ever get elected in the first place?

$75 million and an opposing candidate that had no spine. Throw in a party that was virtually bankrupt from getting Obama elected and you have your answer.

Low information voters. Fox News viewers are consistently shown to be the least informed. In fact, those who watch no news at all are better informed.

last night Rick Scott was asked whether he supports the concept of a minimum wage.

“Sure,” he replied. But when asked what it should be, he responded, “How would I know — I mean, the private sector decides wages.”

When he was asked again whether he supports the government setting the minimum wage, he said, “Just because they set a minimum wage doesn’t mean you get a job.”
He may not have an answer for where the minimum wage should be, but he’s ensured that Floridians can't decide for themselves. In 2013, he signed a bill that bans local cities and counties from passing their own higher wages or other benefits like paid sick days.

Who do you trust? Pew survey conducted March 19-April 29.
http://www.politifact.com/punditfac...udy-finds-rush-limbaugh-least-trustworthy-ne/

The five major news networks top the trust spectrum, with 54 percent of respondents saying they trust CNN, 50 percent saying they trust ABC and NBC, 46 percent saying they trust CBS and 44 percent saying they trust Fox News.
Forty-four percent of respondents say they get their news from CNN.

PunditFact is tracking the accuracy of claims made on the five major networks using our network scorecards. By that measure, 61 percent of the claims fact-checked on Fox News have been rated Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire, the most among any of the major networks.

As for the rest:
• 45 percent of the claims made on NBC and MSNBC rate Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire;
• 38 percent of the claims made on CBS rate Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire;
• 36 percent of the claims made on ABC rate Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire;
• 22 percent of the claims made on CNN rate Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire.

For the record, 82 percent of the claims we've checked from Limbaugh have been rated Mostly False, False or Pants on Fire.

Is that survey related to actual news programming or to the talking heads like O'Riley, Hannity, Limbaugh, Sharptonm Mathews, etc...? Because there is a big difference.

I'm not picking one new site over another. I read them all voraciously and use that thing in my head called a brain to pick out the obvious BS...which does come from every site.

That survey does raise an interesting question. If CNN is supposedly trusted over FOX, why does FOX rank as the top news cable network (3rd behind ESPN and TBS) while CNN and MSNBC place 29th and 31 respectively? There seems to be a disconnect somewhere...

I don't see the connection between credibility, trust and high ratings.
