  So today some unknown challenger from Broward who was an anti-union developer decided to run for Congress.

• Democracy gets kicked in the face

  Number of comments: 5
  I have very little to add to this post as it communicates overwhelmingly my thoughts as to what happened in District 112. I have to say Rep. Luis Garcia has not always been my favorite Democrats but he has nailed this spot on.

• Is supporting Kendrick Meek viable?

  Number of comments: 1
  I don't want folks to get me wrong here, I usually support the most progressive candidate in a race and usually in Miami it's our Democratic Party nominee. The reality though is that Kendrick Meek's half assed campaign, now about 18 months old, has failed the Democratic Party of Florida.' [...]

  I've been absorbing the political environment, you can't spill everything you hear and have to have your ear to' [...]

  So the bill has passed with many flaws and no public option, because doing what's right is a little harder than we'd like. But at least they've gotten something done through the skin of their teeth. There's nothing I can add to the Health Care debate that hasn't been said' [...]

• Lincoln Diaz-Balart retires. [FL-21]

  Number of comments: 6
  One of the last big names in Miami politics made a huge splash today. Lincoln Diaz-Balart retired today setting off a huge domino effect in Republican ranks.
