Rahm Emanuel, Fuck You!

Howard Dean Calls Rahm's 'Contempt' For Base 'Devastating And Incredibly Demoralizing'
"I'm not looking to pick another fight with Rahm Emanuel, but the contempt with which he held the progressive wing of the party was devastating and incredibly demoralizing, That's basically saying to your own people -- you got us here, now FU."......Howard Dean

The Stogie will no longer be voting for the lesser of the two evils. From this day forward he will be voting his conscience, even if that means a much despise republican candidate gets elected. The two party system has to end. See you in November. And in 2012, he will support the real liberal.
So Fuck You Rahm Emanuel and the rest of your cohorts.

Robert Wexler: The Fire Breathing Quitter

The “Fire Breathing Liberal”
Has amnesia or simply misplaced his GPS system. For some strange reason, the very person who quit on District 19 like Sarah Palin did on the people of Alaska, wants to come back to his old stomping grounds. The former Congressman, who cost his district half a million dollars for a special election because he abandoned them and never lived in the district, now wants to come back and tell the people of Florida who they should vote for.
Guess what Robert- We have not forgotten.

Florida Panthers Boxed In

Before widespread development by humans, panthers in Florida were abundant. By the late 1980s, there were only about 20-30 left. A sustainable population is believed to be about 500-1,000, meaning a population that could survive without human intervention. However, so much of Florida’s land has been developed, there isn’t much panther habitat remaining.

Wealthy special interests who overbuilt in Florida and received federal bailouts are spending millions of dollars to crush your right to vote on bad development projects. "Dozer" illustrates the power they have to run over Florida's citizens, yet the voter in the smashed booth in the latest Yes on 4 ad emerges, dusts himself off and keeps moving to protect his right to vote despite the forces allied against him.
