The Cooler

Not a whole lot going on in the mainstream media feeds this morning. Here's what I found notable.

A- HuffPo: Tea Party flunkie.

Scott is preparing to give his third State of the State address Tuesday, and while the major theme — jobs — will still be the same, Scott has undergone a transformation. He's cozying up to teachers instead of antagonizing them. He's learned the art of compromise with the Legislature. He's even cooperating with the federal government to put the president's health care plan into place.

"He's really the Benedict Arnold of the tea party/patriot movement in Florida. Most conservatives feel betrayed by him and members have been calling me and saying they want him fired," said Everett Wilkinson of the South Florida Tea Party, who once called Scott a rock star. "He's flip-flopped on such major areas. It shows how a man can be corrupted with D.C. and Tallahassee."

B- South Florida Business Journal: That name sounds familiar.

Former Miami Dolphins quarterback Daunte Culpepper, who was an All-Pro twice for the Minnesota Vikings, has been named in a foreclosure lawsuit over his home in Broward County’s Southwest Ranches.

C- CBS4: Video, brightening up Fort Lauderdale with wall murals.

D- CBS4: Video, Little Haiti Sunday Stroll.
