Mr. Predictor Senior Forum Moderator User ID: 287257 United States 03/10/2008 12:31 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Because Florida is controlled by the Bush family. Indirectly. I know Jeb isn't the governor anymore but I get the sense that it still matters. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 330674make up your mind ... either Bush is an idiot or the mastermind of control "If there is a new fascism, it won't come from skinheads and punks; it will come from people who eat granola and think they know how the world should be." - Brian Eno |

To prevent the voting "irregularities" like that of 'other' Florida elections, Democrats insisted upon having a "paper" trail which was ultimately passed by the 'Republican-controlled' Florida legislature, but ONLY after the 'Republicans' tied the 'earlier' primary voting date to the bill. Therefore, Democrats could not vote against the bill as 'corrupted' by the Republicans without also losing the "paper trail" which is of utmost importance to them as well as to most of us conscientious Floridians. "The Republicans seemingly have their act together" ??? Not unless one considers 'dirty politics' as a good thing! 'Karl Rove' tactics are a disgrace &, in this presidential race, "dirty politics" have no place except where "the sun don't shine" in the Sunshine State! Beam me up, Scotty! Beam me up soon! Never mind, Scotty, cuz... "There is no spoon" |

Quoting: Mr. Predictormake up your mind ... either Bush is an idiot or the mastermind of control Based on your quote Mr. Predictor, I actually never looked at it in those terms. The only thing I know about Florida, working for the feds in Ohio, is that Florida has the most business scams that I've ever seen. Beautiful beaches and killer restaurants, but don't invest big dollars there. hbh |
