Roosevelt quote: "It would just be another beauty contest, similar to the Iowa straw poll"

Aren't beauty contests what liberal democrats like the most ? Geeeeez

Well that makes a lot of sense.

Appointed jackasses taking away the elected officials right to pass laws.

I don't care what party you're a member of, no one should approve of this action. If they get away with this the rep. party will do the same thing if the situation arises.

Latest spin off of the MSM this A.M. (26 Aug) is that the Republicans in the State changed the date in order to cause this problem for the Dims....

A bald-faced lie. The legislation passed in the Florida legislature by a near-unanimous bi-partisan vote. I think it was 115-1.

I hold true very little that comes out of the MSM.....but that is what was stated on a Sunday morning national show as a quote from a FL legislator, the name of which escapes me....

Anyone else catch that

I guess they don't like Iowa and New Hampshire because it's "not representative enough" In other words, it's too rural and white.
