Florida
Related: About this forumCrist has momentum on his side! RCP has him up.
He's leading in 2 out of 3 polls. The polls are trending our way! Keep talking him up to whomever will listen. Make sure to vote ASAP if you are doing absentee ballot. Don't let it sit around!!

It's Florida (because apparently there are no credible REAL DEMs to run down there).
Etc., etc., etc.

(6,591 posts)Several large campaign signs just appeared in my area, the first line has a large "Rick Scott," below that is a smaller line that says "Let's keep working together," & below that is enough space for someone to add a printed sticker that says "to get rid of him."

I have my mail-in ballot. I will vote for Crist, mail it in and then I will take a shower and scrub my skin with a pumice stone until I'm raw and bleeding.

We have to get Florida back to when Christ was Governor before because Scott is not cutting it!

(15,435 posts)He wasn't a horrible (R) Governor. Better than I ever imagined, didn't vote for him back then but Scott has really run some ads that are dubious at best. Guess some of you are listening letting Scott's ads get to you.
BOTTOM LINE.... RICK SCOTT MUST GO!

(15,435 posts)I got a call from my 19 yr. old grand-daughter who told me she REGISTERED and got another friend to register too! At first I didn't know what she was talking about. She had told me she wasn't going to vote because she was sick of crappy politics. I gave her so many examples and reasons and finally told her she would regret it some day. I had even taken her to D.C. for an anti-war march when she was 11 and she has told me many, many times how much she enjoyed the whole trip. I didn't know what else to do.
Her brother just graduated from FSU and was trying to get an additional loan to get his master's degree but so far has been denied. We had set up a college fund for both of them but it didn't cover all the costs so he had to get a loan anyway. I told him it was a disgrace that the average college debt was $29,000 and that last week Germany made college FREE in their country.
He's still trying to get a loan but the experience has opened his eyes to some realities of "life!" She decided to go to college locally at Manatee county and lives at home to cut down on expenses and also has a job. He just moved back home so I suppose she's learned a few things too!
ANYWAY, that's 2 more votes for Charlie! Whew, just in the nick of time!
