Florida GOP Failure

Republicans in Florida hate Obamacare so much that they created a healthcare alternative back in March that was supposed to compete with President Obama’s signature law, but people just aren’t buying it…literally. Over the last six months, 984,000 Floridians have enrolled in Obamacare compared to the mere 30 who have signed up for the GOP alternative. here

Democracy For America Is Proud To Endorse Alan Grayson

Alan Grayson's bold, progressive leadership on demilitarizing the police is just the latest example of why it is so important that we have him in Congress. Alan Grayson fights for our values when few others will. That makes him a hero -- and it makes him a right-wing target. We can't let the extremists take down Grayson in 2014. here

Florida's Culture Of Corruption "Hiding"

Governor Rick Scott’s administration allowed Duke Energy to continue collecting money from Florida’s consumers, despite the fact that the two power plants they are paying for won’t produce a single watt of electricity. While Duke charges Florida families $3.2 billion in higher electric rates, Gov. Scott made off with half a million dollars 

in campaign contributions.

Rubio and Ros-Lehtinen, China OK, Cuba No Way

Top aides to Sen. Marco Rubio and 

Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, two of the most vehement anti-Communist voices in Washington, took an all expenses paid trip to China this month courtesy of the Chinese government. here

They stayed at a luxury hotel and visited top tourist sites, including the Great Wall. The Rubio and Ros-Lehtinen connection stands out because of their strong anti-Communism views. Both Cuban-American lawmakers have condemned the human rights records of China and Cuba and have opposed efforts to lift the U.S. embargo on Cuba. They also regularly criticize people 
who have gone to Cuba.

Florida GOP Steve Southerland Lies

Claims to be an advocate for women and says that he voted for the reauthorization of the Violence Against Women Act, which is not true. Southerland voted for the partisan Republican version which didn’t extend protection to Native American, LGBT, or undocumented immigrant women. He was one of the 138 House Republicans who voted against the bipartisan Senate bill that eventually became law. here

Wake up panhandle, remember our great governor and senator 
Bob Graham, you now have a chance to elect one of his kids.
You are making the rest of us down here look bad.

GOP Caught On Tape Pandering For Koch Money

Republican Senate candidate Joni Ernst and Senator Mitch McConnell — both caught on tape pandering to a room full of right-wing billionaires like Charles and David Koch.

  

Ernst thanks the Koch brothers, crediting them with acting as the foundation of her 

political “trajectory.”

The day a measure passed to get big money out of politics was the “worst day” 

of his political life.

Florida's Culture Of Corruption: Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Back when Wasserman Schultz was the head of the DCCC's Red to Blue program in 2008, she endorsed 3 corrupt Republican amigos-- Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Lincoln Diaz-Balart and Mario Diaz-Balart-- over three Democrats.  That year Wasserman Schultz helped beat Joe Garcia, who eventually made it to Congress anyway and 
helped beat 

Annette Taddeo, who is running for 
Lt. Governor today. 

Now she is asking us for money? here

DREAMers Protest Rubio

Maria Palacios, of United We Dream-Tampa Bay, was one of the demonstrators who showed up at the event in Anderson, S.C. Some of the demonstrators went to Rubio's Miami office last week with a similar message. "If Sen. Rubio wants us deported, we're here to ask him to tell us to our faces," Palacios said in a statement. "

We went to Sen. Rubio's office in Florida, but his staff hid and closed the doors on us, so we're here to let him know that Dreamers do not forget, and that we will fight to keep our DACA. The Florida immigrant community must see that 
Rubio does not stand for us." more

It's bizarre. Florida leans ever so slightly Democratic in high turnout presidential elections, but Democrats are virtually powerless and irrelevant in Tallahassee. No question the state is trending Democratic. here @adamsmithtimes
