I'm not a car guy.

I'm not a professional political guy.

But I am a news guy -- of 25 years and counting.

Which means I have a fairly good eye for grammar, content -- and BS when it comes my way.

And, I'm glad to say, I called last week's announcement that the Chevy Volt was doomed about four days before the company made it official -- and only days after our president announced he planned to buy a Chevy Volt after leaving office.

Talk about last-minute support.

On Tuesday -- the day of the Alaska caucus -- Mayor Dan Sullivan of Anchorage announced he is backing Mitt Romney for the Republican presidential nomination.

Im pleased to have Dans support, Romney said in a statement. Dan shares my values of instituting pro-growth policies like lowering taxes and scaling back the size of government. To be successful in restoring Americas promise, we need to spread this same message across Alaska. I know Dans support will go a long way in doing just that.

Tom Grady, commissioner of the Florida Office of Financial Regulation, told his staff this morning he will resign his position, effective "soon." He said he has been appointed to head up Citizens Property Insurance Corp. -- a move made by the Citizens board of directors.

Leon County Circuit Judge Jackie Fulford has once again ruled against the reform efforts last year of state legislators and Gov. Rick Scott.

Fulford declared Tuesday that the less-than-year-old law to require state employees to contribute 3 percent of their pay toward the pension program is unconstitutional.
