Ever since Governor Rick Scott announced his support of the Medicaid expansion made optional under Obamacare his GOP credentials have been questioned.

The announcement spawned rumors in Tallahassee about a potential primary challenger in 2014. House Speaker Will Weatherford is one person whose name is being whispered in the capitol hallways.

Reporter: Will you rule it out?
Weatherford: I just said I don’t have any plans of doing anything like that. I think it’s funny that I’m being asked it. The governor is a friend. I think he is doing a good job.”

Weatherford says he respects the governor’s decision to support the Medicaid expansion, although he’s not yet sure it’s a good idea for Florida.
