More cool election stuff from the Sunshine State:
Transgender GOP candidate takes aim at Wasserman Schultz
If we’re to believe the identity politics of the Left, we should all support Donna Milo because she’s transgendered.
I have a feeling, though, she’d disagree:
“I’m an American. I make my way on the basis of ability. My triumphs are based on my abilities, not on a label or a crutch,” said Milo, a Miami Planning Advisory Board member running to replace U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Weston, one of the House’s most liberal Democrats.
In fact, judging by her campaign website, she’s a pretty fundamental conservative: Taxes, Regulation, Health Care, Foreign Policy, Energy Policy. Sure she’s got zero chance in such a Left-leaning district (Obama 63%), but she deserves our support. Not because she’s transgendered, but because of her stands on the issues.
Refreshing, I think, that her “Issues” page doesn’t even list LGBTETC. topics. How’s that for progressive!

It looks more like a woman than Elena Kagan, I’ll give it that.
If my schoolwork doesn’t take too much out of me, I’m hoping to volunteer for her, though I don’t live in the 20th district. 🙂
She’s not too bad looking. There was a TG who ran for Clearwater City Council (or something), two years ago, who was a dead ringer for Terence Stamp’s Bernadette in Pricilla, Queen of the Desert.
Off-Topic, but have you heard that the Dramacrat Senate candidate in Connecticut is a phony soldier?

It made me think of the a-hole who claimed to be a fighter pilot in Vietnam, but turned out to be a mechanic or something.
I thought only Republicans got deferments and all liberals served their country proudly with honor.
The phony is none other than Blumenthal – a scourge if ever there was one.
