The Miami Herald editorial board called it an "assault on open government." They begin:

No Florida governor has ever operated with such jet-setting stealth, concealing so many details of his daily travels and contacts.

Read the whole article, then share our "man of mystery" with your friends.
We need to keep the pressure on him to explain what's going on -- and make sure Floridians know that he's trying to keep the wool over our eyes.
By spreading the word, you're helping hold him accountable.
Thanks,
Scott Free Florida
