Rick Scott: Bald-headed Eveready bunny
"I think Senator Nelson is in for a dog fight. I think he’s got to get busy. You cannot underestimate this Rick Scott. He is a methodical, Eveready bunny; a bald-headed Eveready bunny who just never stops. He’s focused, and he’s got the money. And he’s got the message. And if I was Bill Nelson, I’d be worried.”

This week, Stogie TV caught up with Elvis Piggott, candidate for County Commission District 5, to get his response on a recent lawsuit filed against him. The 30 year-old pastor says that the lawsuit is no more than a hit job from his opponent, Mark Nash. Piggott stated that he intends to concentrate on his campaign and not get involved in petty politics.

Publix bankrolling the campaign of Florida GOP Adam Putnam
Check this out...
-----
Its heirs and past and present leaders are bankrolling the campaign of Agriculture Commissioner Adam Putnam at unprecedented levels.
-----
Putnam is a vocal supporter of Trump’s vitriolic anti-immigrant policies, and while he served in Congress before Trump existed, he cast anti-minority votes.
-----
His voting record clearly shows he’s all about suppressing the vote of minorities who are U.S. citizens.
-----
Campaign contributions to a build-the-wall kind of guy — to the tune of $670,000 over the last three years — is a slap in the face to the Hispanic customers Publix has successfully courted with family-oriented advertising in Spanish and minority hiring, and by integrating ethnic products into the offerings.

"The decision to change the future use of an underwater parcel located in a high-hazard area simply boggles the mind. Clearly, the Planning Commission isn’t taking the threat of sea-level rise seriously. That area is plagued by serious flooding now." Kent Bailey, chairman of the Sierra Club’s Tampa Bay Group.
-----
The Tampa City Council will consider the Planning Commission’s recommendation when it makes a decision on the project. Speaking at the Monday meeting, a Tampa representative said the city’s own planning staff objects to the proposal for eliminating open space, damaging the park and bringing more residents to a high-hazard flood zone.
