This is the contest between Dana Young and Janet Cruz. I’m not jumping-up-and-down happy with either of these two candidates but they are worlds apart on the issues important to me. Janet Cruz gets my vote for State Senate.

None of us is a smart as all of us. – Phil Condit This is pretty obviously a riff on the concept of synergy, “the interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects.” But coming from a guy with Phil Condit’s background, it takes on some real meaning.

What a mess the ballot is this year with some of the most ridiculous and some of the most dangerous amendments. In the end, I voted Yes on Number 4, and No on all the rest. Many of you may disagree, but at least consider my logic.

There are three candidates for this at-large seat on the County Commission. In keeping with my commitment to talk to people running in local elections, I’ve talked to Kimberly Overman and Todd Marks. I’m endorsing Kimberly Overman.

They aren’t worth the ink to give them separate awards, and besides, they’re receiving the award since they are both involved in the same scam of the American Taxpayer…well, one of their many and most recent. After passing a $1,500,000,000,000.00 ($1.5 Trillion) dollar tax cut that went to the wealthiest Americans and big corporations, they now claim that Social Security and Medicare need to be cut to cover that deficit.

Let’s just get it over with, and give Scott his award. He’s working hard to earn it. We can start with the economic devastation for the hospitality and tourism industry brought on by the Red-Tide outbreaks and fish kills. He now has nine ads out, everyone one of which has been judged “false” by PolitiFact.

I’d like to thank Tom Cotton for unequivocally establishing that Brett Kavanaugh committed perjury during testimony for his nomination to the United States Supreme Court. Kavanaugh, as you recall, famously and loudly claimed the charges against him were part of Clinton Conspiracy to discredit him. Tom Cotton has cleared the air and told Hugh Hewitt it was all Chuck Schumer’s doing with a cast of characters not related to the Clintons. So our thanks to Cotton for establishing that Kavanaugh lied under oath during his confirmation hearing.

Senator Collins (R-Maine) is the recipient of today’s Douche Bag of the day award. You might think it is because of her vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court, but I think this might be more “deplorable” and is a classic Republican move. Now she’s turned around and got a quid-pro-quo exactly for voting to confirm Kavanaugh. Judicial Crisis Network, the “dark money” group that spent millions promoting Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh’s confirmation effort, announced a new “six-figure TV and digital ad campaign” Tuesday in support of Sen. Susan Collins (R-ME), who voted for Kavanaugh’s confirmation.

Well, it is generally such an easy and obvious award to make, I’ve tried to avoid making it. It’s like shooting fish in a barrel, it is just too easy. But there were two things recently. The main one being a meeting in the Oval Office in which he starts claiming there are thousands of people already lining for a Dear Leader rally in Pennsylvania, so it would be unfair to cancel that due to a major natural disaster unfolding in the United States.

Well, the time is upon us, so I just as well start blogging about the election. It will come as no surprise that I’m recommending you vote for Andrew Gillium for Governor of Florida. Not only is Mayor Gillium the right choice for Florida right now, but Ron DeSantis is also exactly the wrong choice.
