Bamm! NRA loves Paula Dockery
If there's one group that can sway loads of votes in Florida with a single blast e-mail, it's the NRA. And it just sent out this big, wet kiss of an e-mail in support of Sen. Paula Dockery, who is running against Attorney General Bill McCollum for governor:
ALERT Paula Dockery, A+ NRA rated Senator enters FL Governor's Race
STRONG PRO-GUN, A+ rated Senator Enters Governor's Race
Paula Dockery, a Strong Pro-Gun and NRA A+ rated Florida Senator has entered the race and is challenging Attorney General Bill McCollum in the Florida Governor's race.
Dockery, who has a perfect A+ record on Second Amendment issues, has been and continues to be an outstanding leader in our fight to protect and preserve gun rights in Florida.
"Sen. Dockery's commitment and dedication to the Second Amendment and
strong record of support is unequaled in this race. She is a true champion of
Freedom, the Constitution and the Bill of Rights... When she took her oath of
office and swore to uphold the Constitution, she meant it," said Marion P.
Hammer, NRA past president and executive director of Unified Sportsmen of
Florida.

OMG, Dockery's press release refers to the "conservative leaning Tampa Tribune." IS THAT A FRICKING JOKE or is she that liberal?

Great endorsement of Paula. And, very deserving.

You can substitue Representative Jennifer Carrolls name in this announcement and be able to say the say things, plus Jennifer is by far more accomplished than Paula and a stronger conservative. Carroll and McCollum would make an excellent team able to overcome all obstacles.
JENNIFER CARROLL, A+ NRA rated
STRONG PRO-GUN, A+ rated

Yeah- Carroll is a real heavy lifter.

Stronger Conservative: noun, someone who hates old people and children; hides behind fake "Christian Values" while fleecing taxpayers and lining their own pockets
Thank you for pointing that out...don't know who Jennifer is, but I'll remember not to vote for her if I even see her name on a ballot.
I prefer someone that is defined as having the common sense to see a bad deal when they see one, insists upon doing the right thing regardless of its personal cost to them, and has a willingness to "work with others" and listen to both sides.

Glad Paula is running! If McCollum is our only choice, I'm voting for Sink.

Paula Rocks. The RPOF is disconnected from reality and Jim Greer must go!!

McCollum will defeat Sink.
I'm sticking with McCollum
Posted by: Alex | November 05, 2009 at 08:24 PM
McCollum has no chance against Sink. Dockery has a great chance against sink.
I'm voting for Paula.
