FLORIDA - Keep your eye on the BIG PICTURE - By: Freeper David Osborne, Tallahassee, Florida

In todays modern political world it is no longer about "voting for the best candidate" regardless of party affiliation.... REAL Political POWER comes from the numbers period.. we, conservatives, that is, are so close to getting a REAL majority in this country.. it is so close we can almost taste it... then and only then will the world see America as truly conservative... I hate it when people say "Republicans have the majority in the U.S. Senate"... .this is NOT TRUE.... anyone who understand the U.S. Senate knows that it takes 60 SEATS to have a real majority... 59 is NOTHING....because it only takes 41 votes to effectively fillibuster, which the DEMs have used over and over and over again in the past 6 years...... If you really want to see something get done our NATIONAL CONSERVATIVE MOTTO going into NOVEMBER needs to be on the big picture.... SIXTY in 06' ... in addition the number of Republican Govs vs Democrat Govs also has huge national political influence and power.... We must not allow Florida to give the Dems a Gov seat and keep a Senate Seat that we can capture.......

I totally agree. No way do we want to allow Democrats regain power. If any one wants to see the possibilities of this country in Democrats hands check out http://www.americaweakly.com/ and you will see the future with Harry Reid running the Senate and Nancy Pelosi running the House.

We can not allow this to happen. Nor can we allow a democrat to become Governor of this great state. We must do what we can to get Crist and the other Republicans in this state elected.

The scary and sickening video below shows what happens when the rats are in power. They allowed Ben Laden to live and bring about 9/11.

JMHO, but Crist is a shoe-in. He has "granny appeal" and Davis does not. You don't get elected Governor of Florida without it.

Regarding our open Senate seat, David, I have been a fan of K. Harris since the beginning of this march-to-Nov-06.

Katherine Harris can and will win the Senate seat now held by nelson, in spite of the pubbies attempts to de-rail her.

She has NAME RECOGNITION far beyond what's-his-name, and the irony of it, is that It was the demoncRATS that gave it to her,

by demonizing her after the 2000 elections!!

I also think that she's a true Conservative. Stay well.

.....................FRegards

Great post, David!

Great graphic and post, Gonz.

You're both so right. We have to FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS. Every senate seat up for grabs in this nation must get full attention from conservatives.

Every attempt will be made in the next 60 or so days to distract us from the main prize, to demoralize us, to neutralize us, to dishearten us, to confuse us, to lie to us.....well, you get my drift.

We're up against liberal Florida newspapers, other state MSM enemies, the teachers union spider web. the vote thieves, the voting dead........plus we're up against the radical Dem state apparatus and their minions and thugs.

We have to realize our enemies will give no quarter and will resort to every illegal or smear activity they think they can get away with in order to take the U.S. Senate and Florida governor seats.

We Floridians have to mobilize as if we are in a war. We HAVE to especially take this senate seat.

I hope the recent Harris out-of-state boo-birds will concentrate now on winning senate seats in their own respective states. We wish them well in their endeavors.

We will concentrate on our races here. We have three FR chapters in our large, populous state. We must gear up. Notify your chapter leader if you want to lead a freep before election. Also post it on the state forum. Don't be shy. Get into gear. Support each other. Put past differences in the round file. Think of things you can do. Show up when Harris or Crist appear near you, even if they're not all that near you. Organize a freep if marxist Bill Nelson is coming to a theater near you.

This is all teamwork. This is what HAS to be done in each state in order to get a successful GOP majority in the Senate.

Dingy Harry as Senate Minority Leader? OMG.......but it can happen, folks.

FOCUS

F - Florida
O - Organized
C - Crusaders
U - United for the
S - Senate & State House

Full speed ahead, gang.....let's FOCUS!

(Damm, I'm good!)

LOL!

The dreaded typo above...."Dingy Harry as Senate Minority Leader?" should read "Majority Leader".

See how hard it was for me to even type that dreadful thought?

Florida has an opportunity to do our part to further the NATIONAL CONSERVATIVE AGENDA !!... we must keep the Gov. Seat in the "R" column... and we can change ONE U.S. Senate from "D" to "R"... Let's Roll !!
