Florida Legend Buddy MacKay Endorses Nan Rich
Sen. Nan Rich brought her dark-horse campaign for governor to the University of Tampa on Tuesday, trumpeting the endorsement of former lieutenant governor and congressman Buddy MacKay, a Democratic elder statesman.....more>
Mr. MacKay, now retired in Marion County, was a state legislator, U.S. House member, lieutenant governor under the late Gov. Lawton Chiles, and briefly governor after Chiles’ 1998 death. He lost the 1998 governor’s race to Jeb Bush. He’s one of the last remaining members of the group of progressive Democrats, including Chiles, Reubin Askew and Bob Graham, who dominated

Bad News For Florida's Right Wing
Medical marijuana will be on the ballot in November,
which is bad news for Gov. Rick Scott and other Republican leaders
who oppose any relaxation of the state’s backward cannabis laws. public surveys continue to show landslide support for medical marijuana, and a majority favoring the decriminalization of small amounts for personal use. This is a thorny problem for conservative Republicans like Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi, who are up for re-election. They now have to sally forth and crusade against a popular cause, trying to stir fear and doubts among a constituency
