January 29, 2009 | Leave a Comment
In an interesting turn of events, it seems State Representative Seth McKeel likely won’t be running for Congress. McKeel was among those publicly considering running for Congressman Adam Putnam’s seat when (if?) Congressman Putnam announces his bid for Commissioner of Agriculture.
According to the Ledger:
At least one person looking at the race and a [...]

Stimulus delayed is just government spending
January 20, 2009 | 1 Comment
To paraphrase Jim Lowell: Washington, we have a problem.
With the economy floundering in January 2009, many people are following Keynesian model asking the government to spend money to jump start the economy. The $700 billion TARP plan didn’t work, so President Obama has been pushing for a new plan during his transition.

Obama and Lincoln - A comparison
January 17, 2009 | Leave a Comment

Crist Would Not Need Hagan ‘Deal’
January 16, 2009 | Leave a Comment
First, let me say at the outset that I used to work for State Senator Victor Crist, and I consider him a friend. That said, I wanted to take a second to comment on a story that has appeared on the Political Whore.
Earlier this month, Wayne Garcia posted his thoughts about the 2010 campaign, [...]
