We Don't Care What Steve Schale Has To Say
On CNN: "It would certainly be better to not have him in the race,(Grayson) tends to sort of rely on hyperbole and invective, and I'm not sure that's the kind of primary which is healthy for us. I think it's a center-right state, I think he is not electable in a general and I think he has the ability to create a pretty divisive primary if he runs," here

Rick Scott admits he used dead mother in campaign as a sham
[In 2013] Scott said his mother's death changed his perspective and he could no longer "in good conscience" oppose expanding health care coverage to nearly 1 million Floridians.
Scott conceded this week that was all a ruse. He now says his support for Medicaid expansion was a calculated move designed to win support from the Obama administration for the state's proposal to hand over control of Medicaid to private insurance companies. At the time, he denied that his support was tied to a deal with the federal government. here

Thank you Rep. Kathy Castor for supporting medical marijuana
The U.S. House voted against allowing Veterans Administration (VA) doctors to discuss and recommend medical marijuana to their patients in states where it is legal. But despite the narrow defeat, Kathy Castor voted the right way! Thank your Representative for voting in favor of veteran access to medical marijuana and tell them to support the CARERS Act.
The Death Of Conservatism In America
Republicans and conservatives
have a brand problem.
Republicans are baffled by Hillary Clinton’s persistent lead in the polls despite months of bad publicity. the Wall Street Journal/NBC News poll released Monday showing Clinton ahead of both Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio by 6 points, Scott Walker by 10, and Rand Paul by 3.
The New York Times/CBS poll released a day later
showed what the GOP is up against:
Only 29 percent of Americans had a favorable view of the Republican Party,
while 43 percent had a positive view of the Democrats. The survey also documented a steady but little-noticed trend: Americans, by their own self-description, are becoming less conservative. here

Florida Democratic Party ‘Bosses’ Out-Of-Touch
“Florida Democratic voters choose our party nominee, not out-of-touch party bosses sipping cognac in a smoke-filled room in Washington DC.,” Alan Grayson
“Progressives are the heart and soul of the Democratic Party in Florida and across the nation. We are the volunteers who stuff envelopes, knock on doors, and provide the grassroots energy that powers successful Democratic campaigns. The idea that a senator from Montana and Wall Street Democrats know better than rank-and-file Florida Democrats is both patronizing and unsurprising. Then again, no one knows better than Jon Tester that DSCC support
doesn’t mean a whole lot." Susan Smith
"We will not vote for or support Patrick Murphy." YCS

Florida Fuck Fest 2015
Last week's legislative meltdown in Tallahassee, dramatic and dysfunctional as it was, doesn't appear to threaten the political future of Republicans who control both chambers of state government — or of anyone else in their party running for office in 2016.
Most GOP state lawmakers remain in safe,
conservative-leaning districts. here

Florida's Right Wing Infestation
"The problem: Florida’s House of Representatives, with a few exceptions, has been infected and taken over by ideologues. Good people have succumbed to the delusion that it’s not enough to be conservative, but they have to be rock-hard, unwilling-to-bend-or-negotiate, right-wing fanatics." here
