When I voted for the first time in the primary here, the poll worker shouted out, "Lookie here." "We got ourselves a Democrat." Do you really think that promotes confidence in the system? I have just about resigned myself to the fact that my vote in this state is not going to count.

That's hilarious. I expect Florida to go red and would be SHOCKED if the state voted blue.

I hope so. McCain wasn't my first choice, but I'll still be voting for him rather than Obama. Obama just scares the bejesus out of me! I really don't think either one can do much to fix this God awful economy, but I do feel McCain will keep us safer than O.
I work with a small group of people, and it appears the majority of us are voting McCain.

Fortunately I live in Leon County, who has had the same supervisor of elections for 20+ years (Ion Sancho), and he does an excellent job IMHO.
He's also fun to party with.
FYI Leon County goes blue regardless of what the rest of the state does.

heh
Reminds me of when I lived in Denver, Colorado (another state that may go Dem.)
My son at FSU has been helping with voter registration in Tally.
It sounds like a different, very blue world there. 
At early voting today down at city hall, the line was out the door, but they were very organized and things moved along swiftly.
I doubt that Nassau County goes red, but we shall see with Florida.

If you ARE making $200,000 a year or more please send me money. Or just pay my electric bill.

OOps
I typed without my brain in gear.
I meant to say that I doubt that Nassau County would go blue.
Huge turnout for second day of early voting in Florida.

most floridians do not want bigger government or more social programs, and i am also betting that most floridians don't want to pay 850 BILLION for a global poverty relief bill that obama is trying to put through!

The only issue with your rational is that the companies making over $200,000 are the ones that supply the majority of jobs. Lets give them more reason to leave and go to cheaper countries  I don't want a government handout, I just want the government to help attract more business so that jobs will be more plentiful and in turn increase salaries. Socialism is not the American way. I say this as a Democrat.
