Remains to be seen if Floriduh, scam capital of the nation, follows the trend.

I ordered the lesbysations at TGI Fridays the other day- not bad, could&#039;ve used a little more sauce...
judging by the alt text, I&#039;m guessing she&#039;s a former flight attendant
She had to, you know, play for the other team.

This is a huge surprise! I didn&#039;t know Florida had <i>any</i> standards for its elected officials.
Does this mean Rick Scott has to assume the duties of her office? &#039;Cause he&#039;s pretty busy with his own drug-test grifting scheme.
Next stop: Fux News. (She&#039;ll need to become more blonde, white and get collagen lips.)
