I posted earlier this month a list of some of Florida’s conservative bloggers. One of them, Doyle of A Cool Change noted that I missed some. So I started with his blogroll and identified a few more.
NOTE: There may be more out there, but I am really looking for people who post regularly. […]

Okay, I’m not asking why businesses should oppose the plan by Hometown Democracy to require a referendum for any and all amendments to local government comprehensive land use plan. It’s obvious. It is a bad idea. It will kill Florida’s economy. I know, I grew up in Rochester, New York. […]

According to the Orlando Sentinel, Orlando-based Republican political consultant Ralph Gonzalez was killed Tuesday, in what appears to be a murder-suicide.
My hear and prayers go out to his family and friends. He was a friendly, jovial character, usually upbeat and passionate about politics. As a consultant, he won many more races than he […]

UPDATE: After reading Henry’s comments below - I have changed my mind. I am keeping the rest of this post, though, so my readers can see my thought processes.

Okay, I won’t say this very often — and I know the folks at Babalu won’t like this — but I agree with Barack Obama. […]

PIP! PIP! Hooray!

August 21, 2007 | 3 Comments

A number of news outlets — and a few other blogs — have written about the end of PIP in Florida. “PIP” - no, not a Dickens character - is the requirement that all drivers carry personal injury protection as part of their auto insurance. In fact, this is really all that is […]

I have stayed out of the whole EPC-wetlands mess with the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners. (Wayne Garcia’s posts on the subject can be found under his “environment” tag here. You can also find some on Sticks of Fire’s “environment” tag here.)
In general, I understand both sides — we need […]

I was recently asked to compile a list of Conservative Blogs… and, as you know, I have a keen interest in trying to add more “red” to the Florida blogosphere.
There are a few the are exclusively - or almost exclusively - political, with a “right-of-center” bent:

Obviously I’ll start with mine, State of Sunshine.
PEER Review FL […]

Back in April, I served on the panel here in Tampa Bay for an FCC public hearing. They were taking testimony on proposed changes to the ownership of television stations, radio stations, and newspapers. A lot of the comments, especially from the public, oppose changes arguing it would reduce competition and therefore reduce our […]

I read a post today on Firedoglake from a link on Discourse.net, written by University of Miami law professor Michael Froomkin. The Firedoglake post was entitled “Correspondence School“ - a quick lesson on effectively communicating with your Representative and Senator in Washington DC.
It’s a decent article, and comes from a former Congressional staffer’s perspective, […]

As of right now, there are officially no men named Thompson in the race for President.
Tommy Thompson — the former Governor of Wisconsin and former Health & Human Services Secretary — officially withdrew from the race for the Republican nomination yesterday. The New York Times political blog, The Caucus, included a copy of his […]
