Aren’t you tired of the party of NO. You can do something about it...WRITE...GOTV...and remind people who the republicans really are and what they stand for. Because this year.. they know not who they are and who they serve. They never served all the people.. this year they don’t even know recognize their party.
What a disservice it would be to a President Clinton to hand her a house and senate full of republicans. The key to our progressive agenda is to give her a democratic majority or else she will be in the same obstructionist hands of a get nothing done legislature. Keep in mind the key to her success and Bernie's hard work was to move the country forward and even if republicans sit out the presidential choice… they will not miss the opportunity to vote down ballot. They know this is the key to either a successful presidency or a stop us period with more obstruction. There is work to be done, especially in a battleground state like Florida. We need to shake it up and be superhero’s. We need to start writing a lot of introduction candidates, canvass, get out the vote, volunteer and help these candidates who are opposing the republican agenda get elected.
Scott is probably giving lessons to Trump on how to dodge a question and both of these guys are an embarrassment and causing disarray in the republican down ballot tickets. Who wants to be seen with these guys? We may never have again in this state, the opportunity to take the Tea Party out of touch people to task and lose their seats. The republicans are in such disarray that no one wants to stand next to Scott ( 75 times 5th amendment invoker on Medicare fraud and Donald Trump ...Fraud period . These republican candidates want to distance themselves from these guys and the democrats running for these seats can take full advantage of this.
I refer you to saintpetersblog and his assessment of the situation.
As the year of the outsider – think Donald Trump – political partisanship could very well be a casualty of the 2016 election cycle.
Take Congressman David Jolly, for example.
On Tuesday, the Pinellas County Republican is listed as the special guest for a “friend-raising” luncheon event for Justin Grabelle, who faces longtime U.S. Rep. Dan Webster in the race for Florida’s 11th Congressional District. Grabelle had served as Chief of Staff for Rep. Rich Nugent, whose seat he is now seeking with Nugent’s blessing.
Perfect opportunity for Dave Koller who is running in the 11th District. Go Dave. These people do not even know who to fundraise for. They have no leadership.
While Webster is not running for re-election in his District 10 – redistricting took care of that, making it tough for him to squeeze out a win – Webster is still considered an incumbent Republican in Congress.
Read the article.. it reminds me of cats scrambling to run inside the house with absolutely no leadership because their leader is Trump. They are literally trying to get on the inside while afraid to hang around with the alley cat who says, “ I’m an outsider kind of guy”. Chaos… total chaos.
This is David Koller’s page who is the Dem nominee in the 11th District
Kossack Adam Sackrin
Charlie Crist’s page is right here

Ken McGurn is in the 3rd district against Yoho
All of these people are signed on to the 90for90 page and we need to make sure Floridians and others know who they are. These people have links to their websites, ways to volunteer and donate. One click away to make a difference. Most Florida candidates are listed right here and the rest is up to us. They are qualified to help President Clinton push through important promises. We do not have the luxury to sit this one out. We do not have the luxury to think we cannot influence people and we do not have the luxury to say, “ leave it to someone else”. This election we are needed in the battle for a sane country. Be ever so sure , it is a battle royal. A king and his pawns want to checkmate us and shut us down. Be the voice for Travon Martin. Be the voice for the kids without medical insurance. Be the voice for the immigrant worker. Be the voice for the abused woman. Be the voice for the victims of gun violence. Be the voice for the victims of Orlando. YOU Floridians...are their voice… You find your down ballot candidate and work your heart out for them. This is about all of us getting our people elected.
YOU be the voice… the vote… the superhero for those who have been silenced and will be silenced further if you choose to NOT be the voice.
What is Marco Rubi.going to do…? We know this guy… Stand next to Trump and compare hands again? This guy doesn’t show for work half the time and does not really like his job I am assuming. He is not interested in representing the needs of Florida.
Now this part is VERY important…. If you are wanting to make a difference and be ever so sure, you can….think of the repulsive remarks made to a Gold Star Father and how you can stand up for him with a little sacrifice by helping these candidates win. The down ticket is how we make it all come together. You are the voice.
Now a musical interlude and pay close attention to the words… this song was used in the 2000 Democratic convention…
