Well, it looks like one of my fellow members of Hernando Leadership Class 2003 has high aspirations. Judge Stephen O. Rushing has submitted an application for two open vacancies on the Florida Supreme Court. Steve is one of 50 statewide that made Friday's deadline to submit an application.
It will be interesting to see if Steve has an inside tract to Governor Charlie Crist since they both were raised in St. Petersburg. Steve served as a judge in Pinellas County before moving to Brooksville with his family over six years ago. Steve was employed as an attorney with SWIFTMUD before Governor Jeb Bush appointed to his current position of Hernando County judge in 2004. Steve has since been re-elected to that judicial position.
Mickie Smith, CEO of Oak Hill Hospital, who was the cheerleader of the 2003 Leadership Class, dubbed us "the first, best, class ever" and this title certainly applies to Judge Stephen O. Rushing. Good luck, Steve!
