Florida is Not for Sale

Kendrick Meek has spent his whole career serving the people of Florida and he has the record to prove it. In Congress, Meek has already worked to keep struggling families in their homes, create more jobs and provide health care to everyone. He proved his commitment again when he voted in favor of legislation that will hold the Big Banks accountable, modernize the financial regulatory system and prevent future financial meltdowns. Meek commented, "As I’ve said time and again, the Big Banks cannot and will not police themselves. We’ve witnessed a small group of Wall Street insiders wreak immeasurable havoc on the backs of too many middle-class Floridians. It is time to stop turning a blind eye to the greed and recklessness of Wall Street and rein in these practices once and for all. This legislation is about siding with Floridians instead of the Big Banks, and I am proud to take the side of consumers over the powerful insiders.”

Meek has proven he’s not afraid of a fight and that’s why he’s running a true grassroots campaign. He was the first person to qualify for the ballot by petition, having received more than 140,000 signatures from everyday Floridians. Jeff Greene bought his was onto the ballot saying, "I'll spend whatever it takes.” Months later, Floridians still don’t know who Jeff Greene really is, and he still hasn’t filed his required Personal Financial Disclosure Form, something every other candidate in the race has done on time – which leads us to ask – Why the delay?

  1. I am and have been a registered Democrat all of my life. The Democratic Party has always (up until the last few years anyway) supported the working man. I really liked Obama at first. I first began questioning his motives when during one of his campaign speeches he made the statement that "The United States need a new CIVILIAN fighting force, EQUALLY equipped and JUST AS STRONG as the US Military". My jaw dropped to the floor when I heard him say that. Why would we need that? That is how Hitler got started. I don't trust him and I can't for the life of me support his policies and the way he is pushing for the Islamists rights over the Christian way of life in this Country. I am wondering if Meek is going to be an old time "True" Democrat or one that licks Obama's butt and is selling the American people out.
    I am going to do everything in my power to vote anyone out of office that is currently an incumbent, especially if they voted for the Pelosi-Reid bills. The terrorists don't have to do anything to hurt this Country, it is being destroyed from the inside.
