He is indeed an impressive gentleman who, if elected, would appear to me and most of my colleagues to be a balanced and excellent governor.
Governor Bush has assisted me and various neighbors at one time or another in the past four years. This is not access limited to any specific group. This is personal and result oriented access for any Floridian who needs his help.
I hope that you had a meaningful conversation with McBride about his ties to Terry MacAuliffe whose father-in-law is McBride's finance manager, Richard Swann. I hope that you asked McBride about the taxes he would like to raise for Floridians; dem millionaires always like to spend other people's money.
I could send you to an underground dem web site. Their strategy is to target veterans, especially Marines to get their vote. You are a number to Bill McBride. He wants to state that the Generals who vote for him are better than the Generals who support Jeb Bush. McBride's democratic party is the same party who challenged military absentee ballots. Did Bill McBride tell you that he hadn't seen his machine gunner from Nam, his best friend, since Nam? Makes him a hypocrite doesn't it? He leaves out that he didn't give this guy the time of day until he ran for governor, SINCE NAM.
Further, democrats are calling Christians the "Christian Taliban". I find that offensive do you? They are McBride supporters. Maybe you better do some more research on the Clinton's choice for governor. That's what you're getting. Fregards, FV
By your own description, your military experience is overshadowed by your lawyerly experiences--in particular--the trial attorney consulting you enjoy. "...try to limit the degree of economic muscle applied by the commercial giant to the unfair or unlawful injury of the small business person."
Does the banking industry so completely represented by the McBride/Rossin ticket not fit into your commercial giant description? The trial attorney industry should be considered one of the most dangerous giants in our economy, unless, of course, you are one of them.
Your resentment that McCain lost the 2000 primary election tells another tale. McCain is expected to jump parties sooner rather than later.
I smell a special interest rat in the room.
Cut through the talk to McBride's position on issues:
But when it comes to core ideology, no one in the field outflanks him on the left. That, of course, could be a ruinous niche nationally, but not statewide.
He's unabashedly supportive of public schools and teachers and activist on behalf of the environment and minority inclusion. He sees the value in unions and the good in affirmative action. He believes gays and lesbians should enjoy the same legal rights and benefits as married couples. He is, as he has said, a "proud and unapologetic Democrat."
"To suggest that any private school is better than a public school is disgraceful
" Bill McBride.

McBride was there, but he sure didn't have a clue who was fighting for our side and why.
Those "poor kids" had a great deal at stake, Mr. McBride. That's why the vast majority of them - most over 20, most middle class or above - volunteered to serve to protect and defend the freedom they know our country stands for. Most of them knew that Communism is a failed and deadly system...especially for the "little guy".

McBride refuses to discuss guns or the 2nd Amendment- will not respond or offer his views. That's enough for me- he's a typical democrat- pro-abortion, and anti-gun.

I happened to catch the trouser-snake at a luncheon with one of my clients, and heard him discussing the gun issue with one of his supporters.. he felt that guns should be kept out of the wrong hands, and he would make sure they were only kept by those people with the proper moral conscience to use them appropriately. I nearly choked and wanted to make a scene (I REALLY wanted to make a scene), but I was there with a client.. so I coughed loudly, made eye contact, and then made like I was writing his comment down in my PDA.
