Are we only getting half the story about Rick Scott?
Scott's campaign says GOP lawmakers "behind the 8 ball"

New poll - Scott 43, McCollum 29

If these numbers from Public Policy Polling are even remotely correct this suggests the total collapse of Bill McCollum's campaign for governor.

Rick Scott's withering onslaught of television, radio, Facebook and other internet ads appear to have completely derailed the McCollum campaign.

With just a bit more than a month left before the Aug. 24 primary, McCollum has is work cut out for him in the days ahead.  It will be interesting to see if other public polls match PPP's numbers.

Sources says that Scott's internal polls show him with a double digit lead.

Public Policy Poll says: Scott has certainly succeeded in destroying McCollum's popularity with GOP primary voters. Only 26% have a favorable opinion of the Attorney General while 40% see him unfavorably. He (Scott) hasn't done much though to make Republicans take a charitable view of him. 35% see him positively while 32% have a negative opinion of him, not usually the kind of favorability numbers you want to see with your party's base.
