Something Gore didn't learn when running for the presidency. Northwest Florida, with the exception of Leon County (Tallahassee) is predominately conservative Republicans.

Quick!

The dems need to get right on this!
Don’t they have anyone at their Broward Co. office who could design a butterfly ballot that has Gary Johnson’s name right next to Obama’s?

Florida dems cheat the vote... but they can only do it if it’s close. Looks like Romney’s got Florida.

There is a huge number of anti Obama billboards all over Palm Beach County apealing directly to Jews.
Here are a few:

“Friends don't let Friends get nuked.” (picture of Netanyahu)

“Obama does not have the time to meet with Netanyahu” (picture of Obama with a guy dressed up like a pirate in the White House)

“Oy Vey Obama... Had Enough?
