If Sink loses, there will be no Dems in the Cabinet (assuming Gelber loses to Barbi Doll Bondi). There will be next to no one who can step up in 2014. Furthermore, if Sink loses, Republicans will AGAIN single handedly reapportion districts and marginalize Dems even more.

If Sink loses, it is the responsibility of Florida Dems and the FDP combined. I managed to convince one person the other day to vote for Sink. This person is a conservative who didn't want to vote for either candidate. I'm pretty convinced I picked up one vote for the good guys' side. You all need to be doing the same!

1. I Still Can't Believe It
I can't believe one of the most qualified people ever to hold the position of Attorney General is not handily defeating that pretty face. And I can't believe that it's actually a close race between the criminal and one of the smartest candidates to run for governor in years.

I know people are mad at Democrats nationally, but if one looks at Florida, we have had a Republican dominated legislature for 14 years, Republican governors for 12. In that time, we have had a total of 2 Democrats for a combined 8 years on our cabinet. So if our state is a mess, who is responsible for that?

Sink kicked his ass tonight! She is one heck of a debater...

3. Recent Suffolk Poll
Not sure if this has been posted, but outside of the Ras poll, Sink's doing alright:

Basically, Sink up, Gelber down.
