Marco Rubio borrowed a thought he credited to Glenn Beck at a rally Wednesday and had this to say about immigration: “There are millions of people in America that hate our country, so why can’t we just do a trade? We’ll send you Sean Penn, Janeane Garofalo, and Keith Olbermann,…
Who’s going to be Florida’s next senator come Election Day in November? No one knows. Not even respected political newspaper The Hill. It recently changed its ranking of the race from “leaning Republican” to “toss-up.”A recent Research 2000 poll showed Meek was pulling within 1 percent of Rubio, 41-40 percent. Though…
Unfortunately for ex-Florida Gov. Job Bush and former Miami mayor Manny Diaz, they didn’t have enough money, clout or the proper political climate to get an exemption to term limits and run a third time. A man who did, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg, has chosen them to serve…

Glenn Beck couldn’t make it to his radio show yesterday (maybe his car had been towed), so some guy named Doc Johnson took over hosting duties, and he was out to expose the new horrible, horrible threat of racism that is coming out of the Obama administration: the tanning tax!As part of…
Normally, we don’t want to pretend we’re in the same state as Orlando, but hats off to these University of Central Florida frat boys who allegedly pulled off an epic prank on tea baggers visiting the school to hear Glenn Beck speak.The Beck fans showed up and saw signs pointing…
Bud Day is an 85-year-old retired U.S. Air Force Colonel who keeps poking his nose into Florida and national political controversy.

Our old friend, Miami native and Saturday Night Live alum Victoria Jackson, was on the Fox News show Fox & Friends today. She’s as crazy as ever, or as Gawker put it: “just a touch too crazy for Fox.”She was plugging her appearance with Sarah Palin (“my hero”) this weekend…
Fidel Castro took some time out of his busy schedule of not dying to pen a piece for a state newspaper that said President Obama and the Democrat’s recent passage of health care reform is a “miracle.” Well, the Republican Party of Florida took time out of their busy schedule of…
Charlie Crist has been hemming and hawing about Marco Rubio’s “questionable” spending on the Republican Party of Florida’s American Express cards, saying stupid things about back waxes and “true conservatives.” So naturally, campaign finance reports show that Crist’s campaign also charged money on RPOF cards, according to The Herald/Times…
Yesterday we showed you Charlie Crist’s first television ad for his floundering bid for the US senate. It’s an attack ad against his tea bagging superstar Republican rival Marco Rubio. Well, now Rubio has produced two ads of his own, and his campaign plans to buy up the 15 seconds before…

A bill that defines sexting as its own distinct crime is gliding through the Florida House. While the bill would shield horny teens from harsher child pornography laws, repeat offenders could wind up in jail for up to five years. The bill defines sexting as the use of “a computer or…
Marco Rubio’s stunning gains against Charlie Crist in the Republican Senate primary largely stems from the Tea Party movement, whose main focus over the past year has been to defeat the Democrat’s health-care reform efforts.

We’ve had a hard time figuring out where presumptive gubernatorial nominee Alex Sink lies on the Democratic Party’s spectrum.Is she a dyed-in-the-wool, bleeding-heart liberal? Eh, probably not.Is she a staunch Blue Dog? Doesn’t quite seem like it.Is she, like so many Florida politicians, a cautious moderate whose vaguely expressed public…
