able to meet her, shake her hand and talk to her for a second," said Vicki
Roush, 60, a Florida wine shop manager who's never lived in Texas but attended a

Florida Republicans Crackerjack Idea
The geniuses running the Republican campaign effort in Florida have now decided that stirring opposition to medical marijuana will help Gov. Rick Scott win. The question is why the Republican brain trust thinks it’s a crackerjack idea to attack a popular social cause while Scott is fighting tooth-and-nail to save his job. The governor will be in deep trouble if thousands and thousands of marijuana advocates show up to vote in November. They’re not exactly his core constituency, so why get them riled?
