U.S. Rep. Peter Deutsch, who is also running for the Senate seat being vacated by Bob Graham, referred to Penelas as ``a pathological liar.''

I love it when Demmycrats attack Demmycrats. And the funny thing is that comments like this will make it even more unlikely for a Demmycrat to win the U.S. Senate seat from Florida. How can Pinellas or Deutsch possibly work together on this campaign if one of them is nominated?

This appellation-"Miami-Dade Mayor"- is incorrect, right? He would be mayor of the city of Miami, not the mayor of a county, right? I never heard of a county having a mayor. Seriously.

And you have probably never heard of another county with a DOPEY hyphenated name. Dade county (I hate using the official "Miami-Dade" County) has a Metro system of government so that the County has a mayor but ALSO the City of Miami has yet another Mayor as well. Stupid but true.

Is there anyway to keep you away from this? LOL!

Is this the guy that hit his wife with the fry pan?

The city of Miami no longer exists. Alex had it renamed Miami-Dade to better fit his ego.

Actually the County was renamed. Miami still exists.

Not that I'm aware of, not only that, but this guy's a Democrat, hitting his wife over the head with a fry pan would be normal.

There was a thread about 1-2 years ago about some local pol assaulting his wife. I thought it was the mayor. Maybe not.

That was the mayor of MIAMI (city). Alex Pinellas is the Mayor of Miami-Dade County.

That was Crazy Joe Carollo, Mayor of Miami, who allegedly threw a cardboard tea box at his wife.

Joe has since left politics and taken up decaf coffee.

Now, if you excuse me, I'm busy on another thread being called homo-friendly by the faithful.

I know in Michigan's Oakland(Detroit NW suburbs) and Wayne(Detroit and Southern/Western suburbs) Counties, the county governments have supervisors which are similar to a mayor spot.

I suspect it's something similar.

U.S. Rep. Alcee Hastings, another Senate contender, laughed at the notion Penelas helped Gore, describing Penelas instead as ``a negative inside the Democratic Party machinery.''

Is an IMPEACED Judge ABLE to be a Senator?

...scratch that...I just remembered Waterboy Kennedy is STILL a Senator, and Queen Cankle got the Senate seat for NY.

Caveat...only impeached/convicted REPUBLICANS are verboten from seeking higher office!

BTW, did you mean the subject in general, or me specifically?
