Weatherford For Governor, or not?

February 28th, 2013 by flanews

Ever since Governor Rick Scott announced his support of the Medicaid expansion made optional under Obamacare his GOP credentials have been questioned.

The announcement spawned rumors in Tallahassee about a potential primary challenger in 2014. House Speaker Will Weatherford is one person whose name is being whispered in the capitol hallways.

Reporter: Will you rule it out?
Weatherford: I just said I don’t have any plans of doing anything like that. I think it’s funny that I’m being asked it. The governor is a friend. I think he is doing a good job.”

Weatherford says he respects the governor’s decision to support the Medicaid expansion, although he’s not yet sure it’s a good idea for Florida.
