Kathy Castor: Thank You
I am humbled and honored by your support for my reelection campaign. Thank you for allowing me to represent you. I will continue to work for economic recovery and opportunity for all in our community. Your encouragement and work on my behalf means a great deal to me, Bill and our family.As we move forward, I will continue fighting for jobs so your voice is heard instead of the special interests. Our progress has resulted in significant investments and jobs at MacDill Air Force Base, Tampa International Airport, Moffitt Cancer Center, USF, community health centers, the I-4 port connector, and more.
We still face challenges in our communities but together we will continue to address them head on with principled solutions that will keep us on the path to economic opportunity for all. I will continue standing up to BP and the big banks that harmed our state. I will ensure that veterans, seniors, and students are given the benefits and opportunities they have been promised and I will continue to be your voice in Washington, fighting for economic progress and accountability.
Now more than ever, our community needs an independent leader on their side.
Thank you for the opportunity to serve.
I look forward to hearing from you in the coming weeks. Have a blessed Thanksgiving and Holiday Season.
Sincerely, Kathy Castor

Corrupt Prosecutor Mark Hurlbert
On July 3, Steven Milo was riding his bicycle when he was allegedly struck from behind by wealth manager Martin Joel Erzinger. Rather than stop and call 911, or otherwise seek help for Dr. Milo, Erzinger fled the scene and called the Mercedes auto assistance service for help with his broken side mirror.Now, Eagle County DA Mark Hurlbert is willing to drop felony charges against Erzinger, because he's worried that Erzinger may be unable to keep his job,

Put Olbermann Back On The Air Now!MSNBC has suspended star anchor Keith Olbermann following the news that he had donated to three Democratic candidates this election cycle. Republicans Joe Scarborough and Pat Buchanan also gave political contributions -- but are not suspended.

Right-Wing Echo Chamber
$200 Million A Day For Obama To Travel?To say this figure has made the rounds in the blogosphere would be a huge understatement. It has been repeated by nearly every conservative pundit in the land: Hannity, Limbaugh, Beck, Drudge. Always with a healthy dose of indignation. Actually it's a figure that came from just one source, a news agency in India, relying on an anonymous source. It was then repeated thousands more times in the blogosphere and airwaves.

"It bothers me just a bit that while all these reasons why the Democrats got swamped in the mid terms are floating around, very few are calling attention to the right-wing echo chamber which ratcheted up the lies against Obama and the Democrats, thereby scaring Americans and exploiting covert prejudices against Obama."

Sign The Petition Encouraging Nancy Pelosi
Don't Let The Blue Dogs Take OverDemocrats suffered serious losses on Tuesday, but no one was hit harder than the corporatist Blue Dogs. Over half their members are gone. Apparently, being the GOP's best friends on issue after issue wasn't the political winner they claimed it was.
But getting drubbed hasn't made the Blue Dogs humble. Now, they have Nancy Pelosi in their sights, demanding she step down as Democratic leader in the House. The Blue Dogs want to replace her with one of their own, so they can deliver our entire party to Wall Street.

Fire Karen Thurman
"Who will be the first to call for Florida Democratic Party chair Karen Thurman to resign?".....Benjamin Kirby"Intensity increasing by the moment to see FL Dem Chair Karen Thurman resign immediately. Doubt she makes it through the week.".....Peter Schorsch
"I am not a Karen Thurman fan. She is responsible for the disastrous idea of moving up the Democratic presidential primary. However, the problem extends beyond Thurman.".....Michael Hussey

Moving Hillsborough Backwards
Tampa, A City Of Fucking MoronsThe dumb mutherfuckers of Hillsborough county (aka the teabaggers) voted down the ballot referendum to fund light rail. And the margin wasn’t even close. The ballot measure was defeated by over 15%. To the the 100,000+ people who voted for county wide transportation, my advice to you is to punish this shit hole county and state by taking your talents and skills else where.

Why Democrats Lost For Complete Idiots
"The Democrats gained control of both Congress and the Presidency in 2008. They then pursued ineffective policies which didn’t fix the economy. They increased deportations of Hispanics. They restricted abortion rights for women. They spat on gays repeatedly. They betrayed unions. They gutted civil rights, going even further than George W. Bush (who never said he had the right to assassinate Americans.) They saved bankers who then rewarded themselves with record bonuses and salaries while average American wages actually declined."......Ian Welsh
The base was demoralized, not because the Dems went too far left,
but because they went too far right.
Congratulations! Anita Stewart
Thanks to all who voted for me. I am now a member of the Hillsborough County Soil and Water Conservation Board.

To All The Non-Voting Floridians
You Deserve What You Get!Scott, Rubio, Bondi, Atwater, West, Latvala, Grant, Burgin, Young, Harrison, Weatherford, Steube, Hagan, Crist, Murman, Bilirakis, Ross, Putnam, Rivera.
I Tought Floridians Wanted Change? These People Are From The Same Party That Has Controlled State Politics For A Long Time. To Borrow A Phrase From Bill Splitlog And Embellish It A Little Bit...
"If Morons Had Wings, Florida Would Be An Airport!"
Kendrick Meek Thanks Floridians
"Tonight, I stand before my fellow Floridians with an overflowing heart and an uplifted spirit, forever appreciative that people throughout this state believed in our campaign and embraced values that we as Floridians hold dear. From the moment we began this journey in January before President Obama's inauguration through this evening, we have prided ourselves on our hard work, and steadfast dedication to the people of our state."We stand on the belief that our economy will only flourish when the middle class is thriving and small businesses are hiring. The lifelong bedrock that makes our party great and this nation flourish is rooted in principles of equality and social justice, of protecting our environment and defending a woman's right to choose. These are not sometime Democratic values, but all-the-time Democratic values. On our essential beliefs, we can never compromise because too many people in the generations preceding us have toiled and struggled for the liberties we now enjoy and the way of life we deserve.
"We were the campaign that brought voice to the people of struggle, to individuals in our communities who are working harder than ever before but earning less. Those individuals, they are our teachers and firefighters, our nurses and bus drivers -- everyday working people who support their families through hard work deserve an advocate too, and my candidacy was for them. They are Florida's middle class and their work ethic defined by uncommon excellence is on display everyday. We fought for them.
"To my opponents, I congratulate them on their campaigns. To Florida's Senator-elect Marco Rubio, I congratulate you on winning a plurality of the vote and standing on principle.
"Tonight the people of Florida have spoken, but tomorrow we will rise with ongoing challenges and unmet demands. No one has a monopoly on how best to heal our state, but we know much work lays ahead for all of us. The fight for a better, more prosperous Florida future continues and my commitment to people all throughout our state endures. For two years, you have embraced me and for the rest of my life, I shall embrace you. Better days lay ahead of us and, through hard work, we will arrive at that future together."......Kendrick Meek
Thank You Mr. Meek!

Tampa: Why The Fuck Would Anyone Want To Live Here?
It’s certainly not an understatement to say that tuesday November 2nd 2010 will be a day that defines the Tampa Bay area for generations. For the first time ever Hillsborough county voters will have a chance to approve funding for light rail, increased bus services, and road improvements. One of the problems with ballot referendums is that even stupid people get to vote on them. Even teabaggers get to vote, even knuckle dragging mouth breathing evangelical retards get to vote. Even the moronic “what’s in it for me” crowd gets to vote. And that’s what scares me.here
