Scott Randolph, you so crazy….

It was reported by the Miami Herald yesterday that, Orlando state representative Scott Randolph was involved in more political drama when, he threatened a fellow Democrat and threw her pen in the garbage.

Rep. Daphne Campbell- Miami, had crossed the aisle on an abortion bill and according to reports, Randolph went ballistic.

“You are a traitor,” Randolph reportedly said. “I swear, you will not be re-elected. I will get an opponent.”

They started flinging papers at each other, and he threw her pen in the trash. Minority leader Ron Saunders dug the pen out and gave it back to Rep Campbell.

It was later reported by the Miami Herald, that Randolph wanted some props for his actions.

“I should be commended, by the way,” he said. “She has done nothing but annoy and estrange people.”

While once again, you can understand Scott Randolph’s personal connection and passion on abortion issues, he continues to sabotage his own efforts.

A few days back he went on national television with his incorporatemyuterus.com campaign, a couple of days later Politifact calls some of the claims made during his appearance on the Rachel Maddow show, false.

At this point, I kinda feel bad for the guy. When is he going to learn, that when you’re working against such a large majority, you need all the allies you can get? Randolph would be wise to smooth things over with his fellow Democrat.

I’m going to mail Rep. Campbell a new pen.
