You were aware that Mel Sembler's son is running Crist's campaign? Brett or Brent is his first name.

Sembler has a lot of businesses including shopping malls. I have no idea how Sembler is able to donate so much to Crist's campaign and I'm sure his son takes a salary from Crist.

Something's not right there, is it?

Now that you mention it, I do remember, but I had forgotten.

For the benefit of those who are relatively new to Florida here is a bit of reading on Sembler so you won't be in the dark. http://www.thestraights.com/index.htm

I just went back and looked at the contributions from Sembler to Crist and it is over $35,000.00 That kind of money doesn't go without a promise. At least in my mind if someone is shelling out that kind of $$ there is a payback coming. And I thought Sen Jim King getting $5000 from a hospice lobbyist was way out of line.

This is just the obvious $$. For anyone who has the inkling and is thinking I made up this money, I didn't. I don't do that kind of thing. Go to the FL Division of Elections site and you can search for campaign contributions. They will all show up.

Maybe I'll take a look at the lobbyists later and see which interests Crist is getting money from. I'll post it when I do, just for the fyi.
