one of the reasons I said I was happy to move here from Chicago this year ... so that my vote would count.
[Note: your vote always counts. Please register if you haven't done so. Please vote in every election in which you have an opportunity. My comments are tongue-in-cheek about how Florida's elections are always so contested ... compared to how Chicago's elections are mostly a foregone conclusion.]
The next few weeks are about to get mean and expensive, according to political bloggers ... and anyone who watches the news or reads the papers. Of course, first, there's a primary in just over a month ... and FL is a closed primary state, so one can only vote for the party in which one is registered. Not represented in the photo accompanying this post ... the fact that a certain Rich lady (her last name ... not necessarily that she's overly-wealthy) is *also* running to get the nomination on the Democratic side. And *also* not represented in the photo ... the fact that the guy on the left, currently affiliated with the donkey, was just recently an independent (what is the animal for that category?), and was just recently before that an elephant.
To which I say ... it's only *just* getting good ... stay tuned!
THE VERDICT IS IN ... MEAN AND EXPENSIVE:
