Want to hear what the Democrats were up against?

Five of the most dangerous people in Florida politics
Here in the Sunshine State we have more than our fair share of those who could be deemed “most dangerous.” For the purpose of this column, “most dangerous” means those who are so totally out of touch with right and wrong that they are a threat to the American way of life and the next generation.

New Quinnipiac poll on offshore drilling shows Florida House Republicans have completely ignored will of the public
The arrogance of those House Republicans, led by Larry Cretul, should not be forgotten. However, in the lopsided Republican led legislature, how many Senate or House seats can the Dems pick up this November?

Last week in one of my columns I referred to some of the scoundrels in the Florida G.O.P. leadership mentioning that they were “the kind of guys who make Jeff Kottkamp look honest.” Kottkamp, who is Florida’s do-nothing Lieutenant Governor best known for hundreds of thousands of dollars in expenses on state-owned aircraft to attend football games and concerts apparently took issue with the column.

Q&A with Chris Ingram about the Fla. GOP
CL: Given his low poll numbers and discontent of him within the GOP, what should Charlie do? Ingram: The best thing Charlie Crist can do at this point is drop out and try to rehabilitate his image. It can be done. But running as anything other than a Republican permanently ruins his chances to run for the White House or vice-presidency – especially if he loses. But Charlie is a political animal and while he has good instincts most of the time, he won’t drop out because he’s too stubborn and has started believing his own press releases, and isn’t listening to anyone.

Teachers union and GOP leadership share in failure to acquire Race to the Top funds
There is a model on how to work together, however, and it's in Hillsborough County. As we write in our news story, Hillsborough union officials say it hasn't been easy, but they have been able to work effectively together with Superintendent MaryEllen Elia and the School Board over the years, which is why the Gates Foundation selected them as one of only 4 recipients to create a model to measure teacher effectiveness and develop a teacher mentoring program.

Liar, liar Jeffrey’s pants on fire!
If you ever had any question about what is wrong with American politics, Jeff Atwater who is the Florida State Senate President and is a candidate for Chief Financial Officer should erase any doubt. This guy is so full of bull-sh*t and double-talk he ought to get an Academy Award.
