So Gov. Rick Scott is finishing up his education “listening tour.” It has all the credibility of his “working days” gimmick. As if FCAT flaws and their counterproductive ramifications weren’t more than manifest before he became governor.
The time for a meaningful “listening tour”–ranging from education, Medicaid and drug-testing to high-speed rail and privatized prisons–was before image spin was necessary. Too bad Scott only listened to the Koch Brothers, the Cato Institute and the Tea Party.
