Stupid Pol of the Week: Installment 2

I have a funny feeling this gentleman will win this award frequency. The respected Senate President from Merritt Island caught heat last week for putting off an ethics bill, which seemed particularly unsmooth for a politician drowning in ethics violations.

Congratulations Mike Haridopolos. You are the Rantings From Florida Stupid Pol of the week.

Of course, having leadership get in the way of an ethics bill is stupid at any point, but what makes President Mike's public mishandling of this situation so bad is that he is the only high-profile candidate currently running against Bill Nelson for U.S. Senate. Note I say high-profile, not serious. This man cannot stop a GOP-dominated Legislature from blasting him apart in public week after week, so imagine when an incumbent Democratic Senator takes to the airwaves on this sorry excuse for a politician.

Most of Florida doesn't know who Mike Haridopolos is. When they decide to learn and google this man's name, posts like this are all that will come up. The Senate run is a fool's errand, and Haridopolos is the fool.
