KVETCHING IN THE SWAMP

Gator-State Dems are kvetching about Ariel Sharon's visit to Miami, where he will be headlining a pro-Israel rally in Miami, which will also be attended by the current governor, Jeb Bush. The implication is that the trip is simply Ariel's way of saying thanks to W. for his support of Israel's counter-terror measures. Well, I suppose you could spin it that way although I'm not sure how doing so gains the Dems any votes. But, that story fails to factor in that 1) Miami is the 3rd largest Jewish community in the U.S., 2) Sharon's also going to a rally to the 2nd largest community - L.A., and 3) he's already been to New York. Instead of whining about this non-issue, maybe Florida Dems can get back to what they should be doing - reminding the electorate of the state GOP's dirty tricks in 2000 and hammering away at the weak points in Jeb's record. Maybe we should send Hauser down there.

Update
Sharon isn't coming to Miami and L.A. in September after all, saving the Swamp Dems from their own stupidity.
