"There were stops at a Tuscan-style country club in Orlando (he took a back entrance) and a seaside mansion in Palm Beach owned by one of the richest businessmen in the state (the RGA refused to give a time or address.)"

But, he still has Ken Langone, home depot co-founder..

"He will be in the Palm Beach home of one of his major boosters, Home Depot co-founder Kenneth Langone. About 150 guests have been invited, he said, and curiosity about the bridge scandal is high. "I’ve got to believe one of the questions is: ‘Were you involved in this? Did you know anything about it?’" Langone told USA Today."

“Ronald Reagan would never go into the Oval Office without his jacket on—that’s how much he revered the presidency,” he said. “This guy worked like hell to be president…Behave like a president. Let me look at you as a model to how we should behave. What does he say? Fat cats, jet airplanes. What is the purpose? Us versus them.

“He is not acting presidential. He is behaving in a way designed in my opinion to divide us, to make us look at each other with skepticism, with suspicion. That is the end of America as we know it,” he said. “The destruction he is inflicting by his behavior will carry on long after we settle the debt limit.”

He’s called the President “petulant,” a word typically reserved for children who act out. Are you seeing a pattern here? President Barack Obama has arguably been one of the most dignified statesman to occupy the Oval Office, yet Langone’s complaints have not been policy specific, but rather on how the President looks or with a three syllable synonym for the racist use of the word, “boy.” Even his suit jacket accusation was without merit.
