Going for the Human Trafficker Vote


Florida Governor and Voldemort impersonator Rick "Not Great" Scott isn't the brightest bulb in the chandelier.  Case in point:  his crack advertising team created a campaign commercial that shows a convicted human trafficker endorsing him.  Maikel Duarte-Torres, who was convicted in 2011 of trying to smuggle two Cuban girls from St. Maarten to Miami, is shown in the now-withdrawn ad embracing Not Great Scott and exclaiming, "He's created jobs…I'm just like him…"  Why, yes, you are. Excuse us;  bwahahaha!

Not Great Scott, who is running for re-election, has a shady history himself, having run a health care company involved in the U.S.'s biggest Medicare fraud case.  Birds of a feather.
