The sixty five percent for the class room refers to that amount of the education budget being spent in the classroom, not on education bureaucracy. Charlie is not antithetical to all Republican values, he is just the best candidate that the Republican Party has to offer the People of Florida at this time. The Gallagher campaign is focused on offering a competent, positive agenda.

oooooppps I just mis-spoke myself in the last post. Tom is the most competent. Charlie has to this point been an empty suit.

You scared me for a minute there. I'm hearing things are good over at team Gallagher.
I'm going to google Crist's sister because I believe she's the one who is tied to all the liberal organizations that he is beholding to in the past, present but hopefully, not in the future.

Crist's sister has crossed paths with the move ons. Check out her paragraph from Crist's web site.
"Catherine Crist Kennedy is the Director of Curriculum & Student Success for the College of Education at St. Pete College. She serves on Governor Jeb Bush's Educational Advisory Committee. She received a master's degree in educational leadership from of the University of South Florida, College of Education."
Their nursing student Michael Schiavo successfully bumped off his wife thanks to Catherine Crist Kennedy's brother Charlie, his lawyer friends and judge friends.
Crist cannot say he is pro-life but he does so fraudulently all the time.

The Florida Medical Political Action Committee (FLAMPAC), the political arm of the Florida Medical Association, endorsed Crist Saturday at the groups summer board of directors meeting in Palm Coast.
"Charlie understands the issues facing physicians today and has a proven record of supporting policies that positively affect the medical community," said Dr. David Becker, president of FLAMPAC.
FV says: Are these political doctors for or against assisted suicide? It won't take long to check that out. FLAMPAC.

By the way, Crist was about to release an ad with grieving dad Mark Lunsford. Mark Lunsford admitted in court today that he hit his ex-girlfriend. Crist is going to run an ad about a guy who hit a girl. Sweet.
I am sure that spousal abuse and restraining orders is an issue that Tom Gallagher is eager to talk about. ;)

Gallagher is running some very effective TV spots. The problem is that I rarely watch network TV, so they seem new to me. You have to get above channel 241 on DirecTV to reach us these days.

This is about the Mark Lunsford endorsement, not about Gallagher's past that he has atoned for.
Cheap shot, Dude.
Mark Lunsford hit a woman and the judge wouldn't give her a restraining order. I guess if you're pimping out your deceased nine year old, an activist judge will give you a pass, Mark Lunsford.

The pac of activist docs contains the usual suspects tied to the Semblers who are running Crist's campaign. For all I know, the Semblers are already the shadow govt for us lol

"...how did a Bellsouth RICO and four other financial investigations against bellsouth fall to the wayside. And Charlie Crist had no problem attending the funndraiser from Marshal Criser Bellsouth CEO the MONTH our state of Florida consumers received the biggest phone increase in history.
After Charlie Crist became Atty General, his office abandoned the Bellsouth investigations.

GALLAGHER BUZZ: Three Republican House members filed Tom Gallagher's campaign papers Tuesday, making the chief financial officer an official candidate for governor.
Reps. Dennis Baxley of Ocala, Trey Traviesa of Tampa and Mitch Needelman of Melbourne arrived at the Division of Elections with Gallagher's papers and qualifying fee check for $7,743.60. They also talked up their candidate's chances.
"Tom Gallagher is the only conservative candidate out there on pro-family, pro-life issues that I've been able to identify," said Baxley, who played a central role in the Legislature's unsuccessful efforts to keep severely brain-damaged Terri Schiavo alive in 2005.
The three Republicans spoke of Gallagher's leadership qualities and similarities to outgoing Republican Gov. Jeb Bush. With Gallagher trailing in the race both in polls and fund-raising to Attorney General Charlie Crist, they also were quick to downplay the significance of such wobbly numbers.
"Voters are still undecided," Needelman said. "The next month is when you're going to see the changes occur. We're going to close the gap."
Travieso also said voters aren't interested in who's leading, but rather which candidate has the best policies for Florida.
"They're not talking about polls, they're not talking about leads," Travieso said of voters. "They're talking about issues."
Gallagher was campaigning in the Tampa area on Tuesday, where he picked up the endorsement of Florida Republican National Committeeman Paul Senft of Polk County.

Googling re: Crist yields all kinds of surprises.
