Ah, Adam Putnam, the Courageous Crusader! Forty years to prep and all we get is platitudes. All this talk of conservatism would make you wonder how this guy voted the way he did for all those big Government programs in Washington. Meanwhile, as Agriculture Commissioner, Putnam was listless and nearly lifeless, especially during the most recent legislative session where Visit Florida budgets and job recruitment programs were almost purged. But fear not, Adam Putnam has now emerged to lead us to the promised land, just as he has led Florida’s agriculture industry into… stop. That won’t work, Florida Agriculture is in a terrible decline and has gotten worse on Putnam’s watch.
Putnam’s stump speech is simply that – a stump. For all his fundraising prowess, all his careful calculation, one would think Adam Putnam would have one, just one new idea to present as he kicks off his first campaign for Governor. Instead, the people of Florida are left to ask their Commissioner of Agriculture – Where’s the Beef?
