HOLD UP. Republicans want to put Rick Scott, the guy who oversaw the largest Medicare fraud in the nation’s history at the time, in charge of their health care plan?!
Collins: You are saying that Republicans do have a plan. What is that plan? Can people see it? Moreno: It's going to take 3 or 4 months to really bring a consensus to that plan. Senator Rick Scott has been brilliant on this topic.
