Good news for Crist...He takes a slight lead over Rick Scott. But we need South Fla Dems to GOTV! [View all]

[Orlandodem]

Excellent article about Dade, Broward and Palm Beach Dems.

We have 6 weeks to gin up the South FL base. Absentee ballots will go out in mid October. What are you doing to help excite fellow Dems?

If you know an environmentalist remind them of how Scott has dismantled green laws and initiatives. Crist has an excellent record on the environment!

If you know someone who needs Medicaid remind them that Crist supports Medicaid expansion. Scott only pays lip service but doesn't fight for it. How many more people will be hurt if he is reflected?

If you know someone who works in a hospital remind them that hospitals are hurting financially because of the lack of Medicaid access in this state. We are losing $51billion from the federal government for a lack of action by Republicans!!

If you know a public sector worker remind them of the pension raid and the 3% Scott stole from their checks. He will come after more from teacher, cops, and firemen if reelected.

If you know a teacher fed up with VAM, Marzano, merit pay and testing remind them that Rick Scott signed all that I into law. Crist vetoed it.

If you know a person on minimum wage remind them that Scott doesn't support raising it.

We especially need African Americans and Hispanics to get out the vote! Remind them of his policies to make it harder to vote, all of which target minorities.

We don't have 2 full months. We have about 4-6 weeks to get Dems fired up. And we need South FL!!!! If SoFla voted in 2010 we would have Alex Sink!
