Today's Hits and Bits in Florida politics
Quotable
"You have 40 self-interested actors now, all with seats at the table, all with leadership ambitions, with their political careers on the line --- in terms of the number of years they might be able to stay here, whether they would have to face opposition from another sitting member of the Senate, whether their district would be strengthened or weakened relative to their own political popularity back home --- I mean, it's going to be infinitely more difficult."
- Sen. Tom Lee, on how difficult it will be for the legislature to redraw Senate districts.
Statworthy
45%. For the first time, the Q-Poll shows Rick Scott with a positive approval spread among Floridians, 45% approving of his job performance to 44% disapproving. Scott's numbers are better than President Obama's, as only 41% in Florida currently approve of the job Obama is doing.
