(2,423 posts)...who were elected as a really dumb "voter backlash" to Bill Clinton as President. Scarborough served as a Representative from Florida's 1st District from 1995-2001. The "class of 1994" were known for real viciousness, especially with regard to the poor or marginalized, and they were also totally uncompromising and obstinate in their views. We soon had government shutdowns, Newt Gingrich throwing tantrums on Air Force One (not to mention network TV), etc.
Since his departure from elected politics, Scarborough has moderated in his views somewhat, but he would still be considered quite conservative by conventional standards. Of course, we are no longer in a time of conventional standards.
