How is it that people of such hedonistic nature invariably ascend to the pinnacles of political "leadership" and how is it that even when knowing of their awful nature, Florida voters continue to support them?
In most cases, simple observation of the public persona and conduct of these people is more than sufficient to infer their more hidden behavior.
How incredibly flawed is our democracy when people are repeatedly fooled by these individuals. Worse yet, some are not deceived...they are simply tolerant or perhaps even aspire to such depravity. What manner of a society are Florida voters complicit or actively engaged in creating?

Orlando, Florida (CNN)The first thing some of the women were asked to do when they got to the house parties in the gated community in suburban Orlando was to put away their cellphones, according to two women in attendance who spoke to CNN in recent days. The men inside, a who's who of local Republican officials that often included Rep. Matt Gaetz, did not want the night's activities documented.
The partygoers, at times dressed in formal wear from a political event they'd just left, mingled and shared drugs like cocaine and ecstasy. Some had sex.
Gaetz, the brash Republican, liked to discuss politics, said one of the women. He behaved like a "frat type of party boy," she said, sometimes taking pills she believed were recreational drugs.
