AIF's Barney Bishop: Florida Can't Afford Dan Gelber
Submitted by Kevin Derby on September 22, 2010 - 3:13pm
Barney Bishop, president and CEO of the Associated Industries of Florida, came out swinging on Wednesday against Sen. Dan Gelber, the Democratic candidate for attorney general.
Florida doesnt need Dan Gelber as attorney general, insisted Bishop. If elected, he will follow in the footsteps of New Yorks Eliot Spitzer and Connecticuts Dick Blumenthal -- harassing Floridians and businesses with costly and unnecessary investigations that lead to no prosecution, no convictions and no recovery to the state -- all to inflate their own political ambitions.

Submitted by Kevin Derby on September 22, 2010 - 2:31pm
On Wednesday, an appeals court in Miami shook up the Sunshine States political landscape by ruling that the states law banning gay couples from adopting children is unconstitutional.
The Third District Court of Appeals issued a 3-0 ruling in favor of Frank Gill who has served as the foster parent for two boys. The ruling likely will not settle the matter. Gills attorneys initially intended to take their case to the Florida Supreme Court -- where it will probably end up on appeal.

Klein Poll Shows Him Up 8 Points in CD 22 Race; West Has Other Numbers
Submitted by Anonymous on September 22, 2010 - 1:12pm
A day after controversy erupted over a mailer sent by his party, Democratic Rep. Ron Klein released a poll showing him ahead of GOP challenger Allen West by 8 points.
The poll, conducted before the dustup over a campaign flier bearing West's Social Security number, has the Democrat up 48-40, and shows West's negatives on the rise.
It is not surprising that voters are rejecting Allen West considering he has extreme, right-wing positions and follows the Sarah Palin model of divisive politics, Klein campaign spokeswoman Sarah Rothschild said.

On the campaign trail, Suzanne Kosmas tells voters that she is independent from the national Democrats that are spending our grandchildren into poverty and standing in the way of our economic recovery, wrote Adams to supporters. But tonight she is in Washington side by side with Nancy Pelosi raising money to further their liberal agenda.
