Mark Silva, Political Editor-Orlando Sentinel on CNN.
Anyone know anything about this guy?

Judy Woodruff just interviewed this guy about the Presidential Race in Florida. This "journalist" spent most of the time parroting Rovespeak to Judy. Knocking Kerry, and talking about how Floridians will be swayed by a leader that can protect them from terrorist attacks. He said that the economy was not much of a factor.

1. When he said that Floridians weren't concerned about jobs...
I just about lost it.

I hope Florida was watching!

2. we don't care about jobs? Then why is Kerry 6 points ahead
here? We don't care about the economy? What planet is this guy from? I know people who have been out of work for months and months with no prospects. Maybe he should get out more.

6. Actually..............
Florida is one of the few states that IS adding jobs. However, they're the low paying service jobs that don't pay a living wage and have no benefits. And let's not forget all of those "manufacturing" jobs at McDonalds! Technically, the guy is right. Floridians aren't really worried about jobs.......yet.
Floridians are still very, very pissed off about the coup pulled in 2000. They'll vote in droves this November, let's just hope they all get counted this time.

3. Bush - protect us from the terrorists?
9/11 happened on Bush's watch
The anthrax attacks happened on his watch
The DC sniper happened on his watch
The ricin attacks on the Senate happened on his watch
The Ohio freeway shooter is still happening on his watch
not to mention all the terror attacks on our troops in Iraq...

The thought of him protecting America for the next 4 3/4 years is scary indeed.

5. Gawd they are clueless!
Seriously, I think, they think, if they say that enough people will just forget that they don't have a job....or health insurance....or pension....or retirement plan......or $$ for college. Sheeeesh!
