Amendment Profiles: # 6 & # 7
October 25, 2006 | Leave a Comment
There are two anti-tax amendments on the ballot: Amendment 6 would allow local governments to double the homestead exemption; Amendment 7 would provide a property tax cut to partially disabled veterans equal to their degree of disability, if the disability is combat-related. Given the building fervor over increasing property taxes, these amendments will probably [...]

In 1998, Florida began the Florida Youth Tobacco Control Program which spawned the “truth” commercials, funded with the proceeds of the settlement of the state’s lawsuit against tobacco companies. Media reports have shown that these edgy commercials have helped curb youth smoking. We at the State of Sunshine think they are great.

Blogosphere on the Crist-Davis Debate…
October 25, 2006 | 1 Comment
We at the State of Sunshine posted our thoughts on the debate. Crist won, but barely - only because he came across a little more hopeful and friendly.
Robert C at Interstate 4 Jamming was disappointed that Crist and Davis spent more time attacking each other than answering the questions posed to them.

The First Crist Davis Debate
October 24, 2006 | 3 Comments
Tonight was the first of two gubernatorial debates between Republican Attorney General Charlie Crist and Democrat Congressman Jim Davis. (Reform Party candidate Max Linn was denied participation by an appeals court earlier today.)
Although both Davis and Crist seemed to provide some decent substance, Crist’s affable style and charisma might be the only way [...]

Prediction: Democrats Will Take Over U.S. House
October 24, 2006 | Leave a Comment
As we noted earlier, this is not a good year for Republicans. Yet, somehow, the GOP faithful just don’t see it.
Let’s look at the United States House of Representatives.
In early August, the State of Sunshine wrote about the prospects for House takeover. At the time, we noted that Florida could be a battleground [...]

This is not a good year for Republicans. Yet, somehow, the GOP faithful just don’t see it.
Let’s look at the United States Senate.
In early August, the State of Sunshine wrote about the Senate prospects. At the time, we noted that Florida appears safe for the Democrats because the Republican nominee was Katherine Harris. [...]

Senator Tom Lee, current candidate for Chief Financial Officer, began talking a few years ago about the lack of long-term budgeting by the state of Florida. He felt that, given the cyclical nature of Florida’s economy, budgeting year-to-year causes significant problems when tax revenues decline during periods of economic downturns. The result, the [...]

Tomorrow’s Gubernatorial Debate: Crist, Davis, and Linn ??
October 23, 2006 | Leave a Comment
From William March’s Blog on TBO.com:
A Broward County judge has ruled that Max Linn, Reform Party candidate for governor, must be admitted to Tuesday night’s gubernatorial candidate’s debate between Republican Charlie Crist and Democrat Jim Davis.
It isn’t clear at the moment exactly what that means. According to one spokesman for Leadership Florida, one of the [...]
