Help in Florida for 2014 [View all]

Were going to need everyone's help in 2014 to dethrone Rick Scott from the throne here in Florida. While this may seem like a state issue to most outsiders, this is in fact a national issue of removing this guy from office. It's a national issue because Florida has the potential to be a very reliable blue state for many years to come, but that may not happen if we continue to allow Scott to run non-checked with his voter suprression tactics. This guy is on record stating that he wants to further reduce the early voting, continue to purge the voting roles, eliminating having the US Judical Department giving clearance to any changes he makes in five counties that are covered by law from changes because of past racism ploys. Right now, the only thing that has stood in Scott's way is a three Florida Supreme Court Justices that have blocked his ideas, but he tried in vain to have them removed from office, so that he could appoint his own judges. Keep in mind, the GOP has a stranglehold on the Fla House and Senate, so they are in tandem with Scott to block DEMS from voting in the future. This is a national issue that could have potential impact on future presidential election and we need your help to stop the crooks before it's too late.
