and said something about Trump should tell us all how great this country is and he should just be positive the rest of the way. Does she know he has been calling the USA a third world nation for the better part of a year?

so of course he's going to spend a lot of time there, reminding them of how many jobs he creates cleaning up after him at Mar a Lago and how they should all be grateful for that. He'll also blame the hurricane on Obama and Clinton.

Women will still hate his guts.

It's a given that the panhandle is red. It's the rest of the state where he's in trouble.

I'm sure Trump will stop by before all is said and done.

The Wasilla Hillbilly has been there a couple of times in
the past. It's almost obligatory for (R) wannabes.

Thousands ride in support of Confederate flag at Marion County complex (Jul 12, 2015)

<snip>

"An estimated 2,000 vehicles, mostly motorcycles and trucks adorned with Rebel flags, took part in a rally and ride Sunday afternoon in support of keeping a Confederate flag flying in front of the McPherson Governmental Complex in Ocala.

The event was organized by David Stone, of Ocala, and was called the Florida Southern Pride Ride. Police officials estimated participation at a couple thousand vehicles."

Marion County votes to fly Confederate flag once again (July 7th 2015)

<snip>

"As lawmakers in South Carolina consider removing the Confederate flag from the Statehouse grounds, a Florida county has decided to do the opposite.

The Marion County Commission voted Tuesday unanimously to again fly the Confederate flag in front of a government building, weeks after it had been taken down.

The interim county administrator had removed the flag at the McPherson Governmental Complex in Ocala, joining other communities across the South and nationwide that took down or reconsidered Confederate symbols after the June 17 killing of nine black people at a Charleston, South Carolina, church. A white man who appeared in photos waving Confederate flags is charged."
