Blogged quickly from the road by Brad…
I had to check in briefly for this one! Even while “out here” and still unable to do very much “in here”. And especially with the Florida primary elections set for next Tuesday, September 5th.
The Daytona Beach News-Journal has endorsed Clint Curtis for next Tuesday’s election over his primary candidate Dr. Andy Michaud who has shown up at almost ZERO campaign events over the last several weeks. He even failed to show up for a televised debate a week or two ago.
The News-Journal’s full endorsement is fairly well done. They quickly cover Curtis’ allegations (broken originally by The BRAD BLOG back in December of 2004) that Rep. Tom Feeney (R-FL) — then the Speaker of the Florida House even while he was the registered lobbyist for the same computer firm Curtis worked at — asked Curtis to create a computer vote-rigging prototype program back in 2000. Curtis now hopes to unseat the corrupt Feeney this November.
The last two grafs of their endorsement…
Some of Curtis’ positions may be difficult to sell to Congress, such as creating a national health-care plan using tariffs on imported goods. But all of his stands are well-thought-out and imaginative.
· RECOMMENDATION: Clint Curtis for the Democratic nomination for U.S. House, District 24
As The BRAD BLOG has covered the Curtis/Feeney claims extensively over the past two years (a quick summary of his story is here) and has yet to find a hole in Curtis’ story — though we have found one after another in Feeney’s considerable dodges and dances and smears and refusal to take a polygraph test (as Curtis did and passed!) — we join the News-Journal in heartily endorsing Curtis in the upcoming election.
Given Feeney’s huge money advantage, we also recommend you support clean elections by supporting Clint Curtis with a donation if you can afford it. Feeney, who was/is a huge supporter of Tom DeLay’s, “Duke” Cunningham and Bob Ney, will have plenty of money, of course, as he’s the only Congressman left in the House who went to Scotland to play golf on Jack Abramoff’s dime now that DeLay and Ney have had no choice but to move on.

Brad, thank you for making the website, grandtheftelectionohio.com. It has been a real gift to me to know that someone else has notice that “President” Bush is an asshole. I was wondering if you saw the article in Rolling Stone about the election. I’m from Ohio and I asked every person I know who they voted for and Bush was not the answer. I know he stole the election. If you haven’t read the article, I suggest you do, it is a real eye opener.
Best of luck with the site. Thanks for the news.
…but who will DIEBOLD pick? At least, Clint will fight if there’s any “funny” counts. Not like 99% of the shitheads like Busby. I expect a huge fight from Clint, if there’s any funny business with the e-cote machines.
Dedwin Hedon – FYI, I have nothing to do with the site you mentioned, though McCamy Taylor has frequently published cartoons based on various stories that we’ve published here at The BRAD BLOG.
Of course, I’m quite familiar with RFK Jr.’s Rolling Stone story. Do a search for Kennedy here and you’ll see that we broke the news of his article first here, as well as helped him along with way with a number of the points made in that article. You’ll also find more work that Bobby and I have done together as you peruse the search results here.

Today Clint Curtis’ primary opponent was endorsed by the Orlando Sentinel in the following article:
I’ve written the following response to their editorial and though they probably won’t print it, at least it will be seen here. I tried to be as professional as possible in hopes it might actually be printed tomorrow:
Something is fishy about this race between Clint Curtis and Tom Feeney. I am a registered Democrat in the 24th House District in Florida. Yesterday I received a political flyer in the mail comparing Curtis to Feeney stances on a number of issues. The way it was presented, with large red print for many of Curtis’ stances compared to small plain print for Feeney, it appeared to be a flyer from Curtis. When I turned the flyer over I was very surprised to find it was paid by “Tom Feeney for Congress”. Then this evening I received a taped call with many of Curtis’ stances on the issues that were in the flyer. It urged me to vote for Curtis in the Democratic Primary. There was no mention of Tom Feeney until the end of the call when it said that the call was paid for by “Tom Feeney for Congress”. What is going on with this??? Especially in light of the past between these two.
I received one of those calls too, in District 24. And then there’s the mailer/flyer…
Winter Patriot has taken a Scott Maxwell column from the Orlando Slantinel and has RIPPED HIM A NEW ONE.
Good job WP!
