Yaay! We got the Tampa Tribune endosement today! FL-5
It was a good endorsement. Well written.

I know the Trib leans heavily to the right, but some of their political reporters in the other counties have been giving us a fair shake surprisingly.

John is a good, hard-working progressive, and we should win the primary next month, and then take on Ginny Brown-Waite in November.

2. Wow. Good job.
It's near impossible to get positive press from the TT if you're a Democrat. Is there anything ulterior happening in the area that would make them agreeable to a change? I know there was some really bad corruption issues in Pasco years back when I was researching a thing or two. Is that still going on? What is G B-W's track record? Is there any scandal issue that would make things easier for Pasco county to go Dem?

5. Ginny is uninformed and lazy
Voted with the chimp 96% of the time. A rubber stamp.

The Trib hired a new political reporter in Hernando, and he gives us a fairly good shake, and we feed him a story every now and then.

We got a call from a reporter in Lakeland today, telling us about Ginny taking 2 trips to Israel, with AIPAC footing the bill.

3. My dad got his primary absentee ballot today in the mail. (Polk County)
Guess I'll help him with that district. :-)

I cannot stand Gin and Tonic Brown-Nose and I don't even live in Florida.

Good Luck.
