Rick Scott is first bald Florida gov. in 138 years
LAKELAND, Fla. (AP) - Rick Scott is Florida's first indisputably bald governor in 138 years.

That's according to Politifact, which investigated the matter after Republican Party of Florida chairman John Thrasher suggested during the campaign that Scott could become the Sunshine State's first bald governor.

As it turns out, Harrison Reed - who headed the state from 1868 to 1873 - holds that title.

If this is all we had to worry about in Florida, I would be a happy canper.

1. He's bald by choice because he does not want to be "balding"
:)

2. Hope he wears a hat
when he goes outside into the Florida sunshine. A sunburned head hurts.

5. It's a strange thing though
I really wonder if a bald man could win the presidency these days with everything being so image related?

6. Having been bald for about 95% of my life.

I seriously doubt there will ever be a bald prez.

Why?

because just about every bald guy you see in a movie it evil. Not all but a huge percentage.

then on top of that, this latest fucking nut case in AZ who shot Giffords, shaved his head before he went on his rampage.

Honestly, why do nuts feel this need to shave their heads before they go off and kill someone?

meh. Good thing I don't want to be prez. I would have a snowballs chance. LOL

8. He's probably the biggest thief to be elected Governor.




I would imagine he even stole more than the Jebster.
