This is great news!

The Florida Professional Firefighters has announced its endorsement of John Kerry for President. The FPF endorsed George W. Bush in 2000, and supported Jeb Bush in both of his campaigns for Governor of Florida.

The FPF proudly endorses John Kerry for President because he shares our vision of a safe and strong America," said Bob Carver, President of the FPF. "There is no stronger voice on firefighter and Homeland Security issues than John Kerry, and we will work hard to help him win the state of Florida.

5. Kerry is doing great

with firefighter and police unions. He's got endorsements from several groups.

This is great, because it helps deflate this BS notion that Bush is strong on law enforcement, etc -- these groups know better because Bush has been cutting the budgets for things like first response, etc.
