Yes On 2: We're still winning
There's been a lot of poll talk these days. In public polls there's literally a
19% swing between the
highest and lowest.
highest and lowest.
Here's what I know: Our own internal data currently puts us above
the 60% we need to win.
We knew, when a billionaire got into the race and dumped millions on the No on 2 side, that we would take a hit - and we did. But as it turns out - his money didn't go as far as they thought it would. We're still winning.

I'm not going to be coy about this: This is going to be a close race and we
need everyone supportive of Amendment 2 and medical marijuana to come out and
vote. We need your help in spreading the word to your friends and families, and
helping to explain that what the No on 2 people are saying are scare-tactics
and lies unsupported by the facts.

We Want The Guavaween Parade Back
Again the ever changing Guavaween is back. This year it has a new name.
No more street party. This year you get to go to The Cuban Club. For $20 - $85
But still no parade
The Ybor City Chamber of Commerce is considering licensing its nationally-known Halloween event, Guavaween, to a third party for 2014. "We think it's time for the Chamber to spin-off this unique special event,"
said David Alvarez, Chair of the Ybor City Chamber. here
I wonder how the merchants on 7th Ave feel about The Chamber taking away their business on possibly the best night of the year. We urge to party on 7th and support the folks that are there all year long.
Florida, Rick Scott Thinks You're An Idiot
After Rick Scott's total collapse at Wednesday's debate, his campaign all but
confirmed that he's writing himself a check to the tune of $22 million. Rick Scott is personally paying to stuff his Propaganda down Floridians'
throats.
John Romano On Anti-Amendment 2 Hysteria
Medical marijuana opponents exaggerate. They fabricate. They find legitimate concerns and extrapolate them until they achieve maximum shock and
minimum reality.

Jon Stewart: Florida's Ball Fan Controversy
We are the joke of the country, again!
Howard Dean: DFA Dialer
We're in danger of losing the Senate to the Republicans and,
unless you step up to help, it's going to be extremely difficult to turn things
around.
Right now, I need you to agree to call Democrats in key
states through DFA Dialer during the critical Get Out The Vote period starting
October 25. Democrats might not vote this year if they don't hear from
you.
