Obama campaign disputes figures
By Sarah Talalay | South Florida Sun-Sentinel
Dolphins owner H. Wayne Huizenga said Sunday no date has been set for selling up to 45 percent more of the team to Stephen Ross, but the presidential election is among the issues weighing on his decision.
That's because a Barack Obama administration is expected to mean higher capital-gains taxes.

All I can say is that it would be a happy day in South Florida sports when Obama gets elected and Wayne the pain sells the 'Fins. That man has managed to nearly ruin not one, but two major league sports franchises in South Florida. His selloff of all the major Florida Marlins players in the months following the 1997 World Series was nearly criminal and all but killed enthusiasm for baseball in South Florida. The team is still struggling to re-establish its image in the community after what Wayne Huzinga did to the team.
And the Shula/Marino heydays of the Dolphins soon ended after Huzienga bought the Dolphins. The coaching merry go round of the past few years (along with last years 1-15 season) epitomizes this man's sheer incompetence when it comes to owning a sports franchise.
