As to the audience in Tampa, Florida last evening. These would

[monmouth]

be the same people who saw to it that Rick Scott, the criminal now governor of Florida was elected. The word today is that Scott will refuse the monies from the American Jobs Bill for employment in Florida. Tampa is bagger country, their response and callousness of attitude come as no surprise to many of us. If there is a Democratic Party here in Florida they seem to be playing hard to find/get. Very weak and non-vocal..

1. Get out of Florida

Walk. Sunhine ain't worth it.

[RKP5637]

2. +1000 +++ n/t

[1monster]

3. We're supposed to ceede what has been our home for nearly forty years? No.

[tsuki]

4. Native here. I cry for what Florida has become. nt

[RockaFowler]

6. Maybe we can secede in South Florida

I mean we really are 2 different states if you look at it. We have the Allen West character, but they have Adam Putnam and Hasner and Scott for God sake. We could then kick out Rubio and get real representation in our new capital Miami Beach!!

[monmouth]

8. I would so be there. Hard Rock could be the temporary capitol..LOL...n/t

[RockaFowler]

12. OK - totally there

We can go fishing in the Keys and drink Margarita's by the Ocean. I love the Hard Rock. Gotta get back down there again sometime

[HockeyMom]

10. Leave Naples

to THEM, and take Golden Gate with you. ONLY SANE people I have ever met in Collier County have been in Golden Gate. No wonder, they want to dump them into Miami district.

[1monster]

17. But I'm in North Florida! And I love my part of the state. It is the original part of Florida.

[Lost-in-FL]

11. +1, nt

[LynneSin]

5. We'll take the money here in Delaware

People want to work and Governor Markell won't do anything assinine to prevent people from working.

[teddy51]

7. There are still allot of retired people in Florida, and I wonder what their thoughts

are, on all that "Kill medicare, Medicaid, and SS?

[hifiguy]

9. If they voted for that collection of swine

that now "represents" Florida they can eat their shit sandwiches and like it. If not, bail if you can.

[maxsolomon]

13. i'm fascinated by the kid from Napa, CA at the debate

WTF was he doing there in Tampa? WTF kind of question was that, "how much of my money should i get to keep"? Like all taxes are illegitimate?

He probably make next to nothing at his age, so he get to keep almost all of it.

[HockeyMom]

14. If America is going down,

and I do believe if Republicans take it all we ARE going down, I want to at least be in a Blue state (hometown NY), and near my children, in a place that I love, and will still at least TRY to take care of its citizens.

Sorry, Florida, your Governor needs to be in prison, not the state capital.

[monmouth]

16. That's the truth. He's a one-termer hopefully...n/t

[sarge43]

15. Wonder if they were the same who were howling to keep

Terri Schiavo alive at all costs and vilifying her husband.

[Horse with no Name]

18. Hold him to it. Dammit. Hold him to it.

Don't let him publicly decry the money (like the stimulus) then take it through the backdoor and take credit for all that "he" has done for the state.

Give the money to a BLUE state that is deserving of the jobs and will appreciate the money and not use it to balance the budget and funnel state funds into "rainy day accounts" that never see the light of day.
