Stephen King sees 'horror' in Gov. Scott

SARASOTA - Horror novel writer Stephen King is no fan of Florida Gov. Rick Scott.

Speaking at a rally Tuesday in Sarasota against state budget cuts, King bashed Scott's leadership. King criticized Scott's rejection of federal dollars for a high-speed rail between Tampa and Orlando.

"Maybe my next horror novel will star Rick Scott," King told the 200 people at the rally.

King also said that while he is wealthy and paying 28 percent tax, he said that someone in his tax bracket should be paying 50 percent.

If I didn't already have most of his books I'd go out and buy one! Why can't other super rich people be decent human beings as well? THE HORRORS that are Gov. Scott Walker and Rick Scott! And King KNOWS horror. I love it. :evilgrin:
