Former State Senator Paula Dockery has summed up the latest Rick Scott for Governor web ad/mistake that shows Scott walking and talking with convicted former South Bay City manager Corey Alston,” Besides that, it is an awful ad. Where is Tony Fabrizio?”
Beside that, it’s an awful ad. Where is Tony Fabrizio? http://t.co/bL1ybaifwA

Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
The Miami Herald posted a story detailing Alston’s legal issues:
Big Ouch!Corey Alson, 35 of Lauderhill, pleaded not guilty in March to charges of grand theft, corrupt misuse of a official position and misuse of public office or employment. Prosecutors accused him of coordinating a deal to be compensated $25,139 for 498 hours in unused sick time and he resigned in February. He was later indicted on four additional counts of grand theft, one count of grand theft over $20,000 and one count of aggravated white-collar crime.
This misstep and unforced error ranks up there with dumb September 2013 Alligator hunting fundraiser Scott’s re-election campaign planned, and were then forced to cancel.
Who’s brilliant idea was it to have a Gator hunt in the first place? (Sarcasm)
Dockery and many other politico, including Scott’s former finance co-chairman Mike Fernandez, who recently quit the campaign, have been questioning the new and seemingly aimless direction in which Scott stirring his re-election campaign.
Curt Anderson, who is Scott’s media guy responsible for the questionable web ad of Scott and the convicted Mayor, referred to Fernandez as a “renegade donor.”
As we mentioned before, Scott’s 2010 winning gubernatorial campaign architect Tony Fabrizio, has been all but shut out of the daily campaign operations, including messaging.
Yes, the man who messaged Scott into the Governor’s mansion in Tallahassee, Florida, is out.
Scott’s campaign has a lot of cash to spend, and would be able to counter any of Crist’s attacks, and message against any of these dumb and preventable self-inflicted campaign wounds, but there will come a time when these mistakes could prove to be irreparable.
Again, “Where is Tony Fabrizio?”
