TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — Mutual admiration was the rule for Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson's listening session at the University of South Florida.
School provost Ralph Wilcox introduced the two-term senator as a "steadfast advocate for all Floridians." Nelson, a former astronaut, flattered the more than two dozen students present, saying they had a keen sense about people running for elected office. "You guys can usually smell out folks. You can spot a phony," he said.
Nelson collected their personal stories about the unbearable weight of student loans for a Senate speech days later on the need to keep the interest rate low. At the conclusion of the hour-plus session, he posed for photos with students.
Don't go looking for compliments and congeniality in the Republican primary to decide Nelson's election-year challenger. It's one of the meanest races in the country. George LeMieux calls rival Connie Mack a congressional no-show, claiming that the four-term House member spends more time in California with his wife, Rep. Mary Bono Mack, than either in Florida or on Capitol Hill. A devastating web video from LeMieux portrays Mack as Hollywood bad boy Charlie Sheen, highlighting years-old bar fights and Mack's previous experience as an events coordinator for Hooters.

Read in a local rag that turnout in my very red county was 3.9%, compared to 17% in 2008. Ron Paul might do well in Texas, which would only fan the flames of havoc his supporters are reportedly going to wreak at the GOP convention.
The race to replace Senator Hutchison could easily go to runoff. It's already gotten very nasty between Lt. Gov. Dewhurst and the teabagger giving him a run for his money.
I've watched this kind of hate within politics for many years. I guess the worst I ever saw, was during the 72 convention
where so many dems hated McGovern so much, that they plotted against him. Especially in Chicago, where the it was especially ugly, yes,
in 72 too. I hope the pukes feel their own hatred turned inward. It will give us so much more legitimacy. Because when they
feel it, they are far more vicious than us. It is their nature, and that will expose them to all, and that will help us..Let us
enjoy it...
