Our new FL Dem congressional candidate exact views as Republican one.

Just exactly. No difference whatsoever, accord to this questionaire by the Orlando diocese and Knights of Columbus.

They are exactly the same on social and education and choice issues...just exactly. So tell me I have a choice.

Look for the names Hagenmaier and Putnam under the house races. They did not rate Jeff Siemer, our candidate who was pro-choice.

Also note the ones they did not rate. I guess they only rated their Catholic candidates. So when I vote on Nov. 2, I have no choice social, education, and issues of personal choice. NONE

I have tried to tell folks that in Florida our Democrats are more like Republicans. Yes, they are.

1. That's unfortunate

But still, the Dem must win.

2. not in all areas of the state

In Miami, WPB, Tally and here in Gainesville, you can be as liberal as you want and still win. The outlying areas are still fairly conservative, of course. It makes sense in statewide races to run as a moderate. Better to have Bob Graham (soon Betty Castor) and Bill Nelson as our Senators than Mal Martinez or Bill McCollum!
