Reply #15: Madfloridian, you are one of the smarticlelist people on DU [View All]

and your in depth knowledge of the Florida politics and the workings of the Florida primaries was second to none here at DU.

I always appreciate what you have to say.

Keep up the good work!

And it's a fair question to ask why Reid scheduled the vote for tonight. We are in a deep recession which is spinning wildly out of control. Fast action by our government is required. Events are NOT waiting on Holidays, presidential transitions, and normal congressional schedule. If needed, our representatives and senators might actually have to work on Christmas (gasp!) if it means that GM or Chrysler keeps their doors open until March of next year and avoids simply running out of cash.

We are teetering on the edge. I don't really think that many people appreciate just how close we really are.

BTW, my 13 year old niece uses the term "smarticle" to refer to a really smart person. I thought it was cute.
