I Am Sick And Tired Of Talking About Panhandling
Last night's South Tampa Candidate Forum marked the 200th time (more or less) that I've been asked to give my opinion on the issue of panhandling in the City of Tampa. Enough is enough. Of all the major issues facing this city in the 21st century.here
Vote Kelly Benjamin for Tampa City Council, District 6
Howard Dean, Gingrich Face Off
Former Democratic National Committee chair Howard Dean, left, and Newt Gingrich, far right, discussed current political issues in a debate moderated by Professor Derek Malone-France.Tampa City Council Rejects Call For Panhandling Ban
Tampa City Council members voted to reject a proposed ban on panhandling and street vending on the city's busiest roads. The council voted 5-2, with Thomas Scott and Mary Mulhern supporting the ban.here
Mary Mulhern i am so disappointed in you. Maybe you should join Susan Long who is basing her whole campaign on the issue, Kelly Benjamin calls it "absolutely 100% tragic", i call it disgusting. I don't know why i continue to support you on my blog. Maybe we can send them to The Licata Bridge. These people have a face and a name, Help Them!

Tampa's Mob Spots
The hidden history of Tampa’s underworld is often intertwined with some of the city’s most cherished landmarks and popular restaurants. Tampa really didn’t have the storefront social clubs popular in cities like Boston and New York City. But Tampa did have more than its share of lounges, bars, restaurants, and newsstands where bolita bets were taken, baseball odds conveyed, drug deals went down, and local gangsters held sit-downs with visiting crime figures from New Orleans, New York, and Chicago.here
