ALEX SINK IS INDEED AN OBAMA LEFTY
(source)
In 2008, the media and pundits told us that Obama was a moderate. But Obama has taken this nation sharply to the left. His leftist policies led to record-breaking unemployment, foreclosures, deficits and debts. Now, these so-called experts tell us that Alex Sink is a moderate, but records who she is as radical as Obama.

IF ALEX SINK IS SO MODERATE, WHY ARE RADICAL LEFTISTS DONATING TO HER CAMPAIGN
Sun-Sentinel

Leftists supporting Alex Sink: Sink has been reliant on a small universe of big givers, a tight network of unions and interest groups that have disclosed large contributions to the Florida Democratic Party.

The FEA, the statewide teachers union, has funneled at least $2.5 million — and $1.74 million since September — to party coffers, largely to help pay for Sink's ads, campaign staff, polling and other expenses.

[...]

The American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees [AFSCME] has sent the party $1.2 million through Oct. 8 — and $775,000 since the primary.

Unions are investing heavily in Sink, in part because Scott has pledged to reduce the state workforce by 5 percent and cut property taxes by $1.4-billion statewide...

[...]

But perhaps the biggest cash infusion has come courtesy of Tallahassee elections lawyer Mark Herron, who has sent up a political committee called Mark-PAC that has raised $6 million — and sent more than $4.8 million to the state Democratic Party over the last two months. Most of his total — $5 million through Oct. 8 — came from the Democratic Governor's Association, but $300,000 came from abortion-rights group EMILY'S List and $750,000 from the American Federation of Teachers.

No Transparency
By running money through Herron's committee, set up as a Committee of Continuous Existence under Florida law, the groups don't have to create their own committees and disclose contributors in Florida — which has one of the broader campaign-finance disclosure laws in the country.

If Lloyd chose the wrong week to stop sniffing glue, I'd say Alex chose the wrong cycle to run for FL governor. You can theorize all you want about up ballot effects or down ballot effects. Rick Scott is not ideal, but with the effect Obama's epic failure is having - it doesn't matter.
