THE CAPITOL, TALLAHASSEE, Sept. 2, 2010....GOP gubernatorial pick Rick Scott embraced political insider state Rep. Jennifer Carroll as his running mate Thursday after days of speculation that the outsider candidate may select the veteran politician as his lieutenant governor pick.
Carroll, the lone black Republican in the Florida Legislature, gives Scott something he can't buy – a relationship with many of the party's power players and knowledge of the ins and outs of the state capitol corridor. She is ranked highly by Republican-fueled lobbying groups like the Florida Chamber of Commerce and Associated Industries of Florida. She has also served as a whip in the Florida House of Representatives and as the executive director of the Florida Department of Veterans Affairs under former Gov. Jeb Bush.
