Let's Get to Work

The sky hasn't fallen. Florida hasn't been swallowed by the Earth. Planet-raping oil companies have not been given an OK to put a rig off the shores of Miami Beach.

But Rick Scott is now the governor of the state of Florida, and for the next four years progressives, and really anyone interested in responsible and sensible government, must be vigilant in watching what happens in Tallahassee.

The excruciating and close election is over, and it is only proper that Scott be judged now on his job performance. Even those of us pessimistic about how he will handle himself must wait and see how this man deals with policymaking, politicking and crisis management.

And so we wait. And we will see. In a state with the most open government in the nation, we will watch everything closely.

It's a new day in Florida. Let's Get to Work.
