In this tense period in both national and international relations, we’re confronted with a number of important security issues, all in need of their own respective solutions. One of the issues that seem to be most prevalent is the need for immigration reform. Countless political leaders have laid out ideas for solving this problem, yet […]

Donald Trump enjoyed mocking Hillary Clinton earlier this week for all the time she’s taken off the campaign trail recently, but with all three debates now history, it’s clear she knew exactly she was doing — working to be totally prepared for these debates. I know folks like to lower the bar considerably when grading how well […]

About a week ago, I used this space to offer an honest critique of national Democrats turning their backs on Patrick Murphy. At the time, Murphy was lagging behind by about four points; at least one poll showed it was even closer. With Donald Trump cratering, it only seemed logical to this writer that abandoning […]

Game-changer? Or victory lap? That’s two potential outcomes for tonight’s third, and final, presidential debate. The first one applies to Donald Trump. If he fails to change the election narrative in his last head-to-head face off with Hillary Clinton, his White House aspirations likely are finished (if they aren’t already). Clinton, ahead in the polls, […]

Chris Wallace has been laying low over the past week, bypassing his normal turn as host of Fox News Sunday as he prepared to host tonight’s final presidential debate from the Thomas & Mack Center on the University of Las Vegas campus (though a photo of his mug continues to be prominently featured on virtually every Fox […]

Sunburn – The morning read of what’s hot in Florida politics. By Peter Schorsch, Phil Ammann, Jenna Buzzacco-Foerster, Mitch Perry and Jim Rosica. THE DEBATE TRILOGY ENDS TONIGHT Desperate to gain traction in a seemingly spiraling race, Donald Trump will likely use tonight’s final presidential debate to throw a barrage of punches. Even a knockout victory, however, might not […]

Three little letters — L-I-P — can spell panic in the hearts and minds of many hospital officials, as revenue estimators are forecasting a lean budget year for 2017. LIP or the Low Income Pool is a combination of state and federal funding that helps supplement Medicaid payments hospitals receive. The funding comes from local […]

State Senator-elect Lauren Book will be saying “thank you” to voters of Florida Senate District 32 with an important personal symbol of her gratitude. Beginning Saturday, Oct. 22, the Plantation Democrat and children’s activist will host a districtwide giveaway of the iconic “Oh! The Places You’ll Go!” by Dr. Seuss. “When I was a young […]

In the game of chess, it is called “checkmate.” It is that moment when a player realizes their opponent just cut off their last route of escape. I think that’s the gambit Marco Rubio sprung on Democrat Patrick Murphy during their U.S. Senate debate Monday night. One of the best lines of attack for Murphy […]

It’s said in politics; a week is an eternity. Some weeks, maybe. Not the one just behind us. The reason I know this for a certainty is that last week was precisely when I took a mind-cleansing break from the day-by-day hubbub that is this year’s precedent-setting, stomach-turning election. The cause, both recreational and restorative, […]
