1. Fantastic. Florida going blue.
McSame's houses gaffe and Obama's ad will play well there.

9. That's not what this poll is saying.
Obama still has loads of work to do here. And FL is notorious for Dems polling higher than they actually perform.

2. Not Bad-Race is Pretty Stable
I think most polls show us a little behind here--Florida will be tough as Cuban population overwhelmingly McCain and low afro-american percentage relative to other southern states.

3. My Florida Jewish friends are also not at all pleased with the
McPOW/Lieberman duo. They don't like Joe....FL will be blue I pray...

5. I donated to the Congressional campaign of Christine Jennings.
She's running again in FL-13.

She got ripped off in 2006 by electronic voting machines with bad ballot design.

I hope my donation will help to get Florida Democrats to the polls:

6. oh, crikey. FL is a money pit, pre-rigged to steal time, $$$, campaign resources, and then votes.
For the love of peace, please just spend money for cosmetic purposes only there. They control the rolls and where the machines go. They don't even HAVE to steal it to steal it when they've got that much power over the process already.

8. Yes, but it agrees with many of the recent FL polls.
If Obama would run a commercial there on McCain's positions on Social Security and the GI Bill I think he could take it.
