QuoteStephen King: "Maybe My Next Horror Novel Will Star Rick Scott."
It takes a lot to scare Stephen King, the master of horror fiction, but apparently the author is plain old terrified of our new Governor Rick Scott. King, who spends his winters in Casey Key near Sarasota, spoke at an "Awake the State" rally yesterday and joked, "Maybe my next horror novel will star Rick Scott."
Several "Awake the State" protests were held across the state to protest budget cuts and to protect education, veteran services and unions.(http://blogs.miaminewtimes.com/riptide/stephen-kings-it-1.jpg)
Though, King was perhaps the most high profile attendant, and according to The Sarasota Herald-Tribune he didn't have many nice words for the Governor.
We patiently await King's next novel. Perhaps Scott can star in a sequel to IT, but instead of killing kids directly he just murders funding for their schools, after-school program, and other initiatives.
Our gov would also be a great starring role in a Carl Hiassen novel. He's going to be famous in his lifetime.
Go back to Maine, you damn yankee!
