The saving grace for Florida
Yes sir the saving grace for Florida is the the State Supreme Court.If the reader can remember recent history it was the State Supreme Court in Gore Verses Bush that ordered the state to preform a statewide recount of the vote. The decision was overturned by the U.S.Supreme Court.So much for States Rights! It was also the Florida Supreme Court that said it was legal to put medical marijuana on the ballot.That initiative got 58% of the vote in a;record low turnout.However it needed 60% to pass.But that is fine because it will be one the ballot again in 2016.Most likely it will pass then.And just recently the Left leaning court ordered the Florida Legislator to redo the states congressional map.This is due to a constitutional amendment that passed recently to have fair representation.The map is Gerrymandered to favor GOP candidates.so with a extreme right wing governor and legislature it is nice to have this progressive court protecting our rights!

I am beginning to wonder if these folks are actually in such a hurry to see their comments posted, that they are unable to take the minute or two necessary to ensure they spelled everything correctly. I guess if you are always relying on everyone else to do everything for you, you expect them to do your spell checking too! It is a sad state of evolution that has brought us to where we are today.
