The excuses for moving the Navy's air grounds from VA to FL are very thin.

I suspect the real reason is to pump billions into Jeb's economy so that FL can stay a red state.

Jeb says he wants it and by golly he'll "miracuously" get it, by George...

2. Perhaps but, BRAC moves several thousand jobs from Maxwell AFB AL to
Hanscom AFB, MA, i.e. from a red state to a blue state with Senators Kennedy and Kerry.
