"Florida Senate Pres. Mike Haridopolos (R) will get a letter of admonition for the state Senate Rules Committee"

"The GOP-dominated panel deliberated for about 10 minutes today before making their unanimous decision. Rules Committee Chair John Thrasher (R) is close with Haridopolos and had already endorsed his campaign for Senate, as had another committee member, Sen. Anitere Flores (R). When asked whether his voting on the matter represented a conflict of interest, Thrasher said, 'Hell, no.' Flores also said she felt there was no conflict."
