"SNIP..........

The new ad from Scott’s PAC, “Let’s Get To Work,” calls Jennings “a terribly rude woman,” a “latte liberal” and someone who “clearly has a problem.” It defends Scott’s record on job creation, arguing that “almost everybody” has a job “except those who are sitting around coffee shops, demanding public assistance, surfing the Internet and cursing at customers who come in.”

1. He's a sociopath. And yet his reaction is childish.

Or an act of self-preservation. Florida enables his pathology, a cloister for his psychosis. But the internet exposes his psyche, and he won't have that.

4. Doesn't psychosis imply he is delusional? I don't think psychopaths are. They are cold, cold, cold

and see the world in terms of strategies, not feelings. But I don't think he is delusional.

5. I agree with you, but his reaction to the woman kind of contradicts my initial assessment of him.

He sees her as a threat. He feels wounded or else he wouldn't feel a need to discredit her. Is it his narcissism or his paranoia?

2. some people are simply un-apologetically horrible. He is one of them.

The tragedy is that he is anywhere near a "leadership" position.

3. Call the whambulance!

He's obviously too dense to realize that ONLY an asshole would do such a thing, and that doing such a thing proves she is right.

What a dolt.

7. That is exactly what I was thinking: he proved her right! Idiot. Nt

8. Ah, the old latte liberal line

she probably eats arugula, too.
