The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee boasted this weekend that David Jolly‘s campaign “lied and it backfired” regarding his camp’s announcement Friday that a local television station had pulled a controversial ad that uses doctored photos of Jolly with Donald Trump. “Jolly’s bizarre strategy to solely object to dramatized pictures in a DCCC ad depicting a potential “President Trump” working with a […]

Groups such as the  National Republican Congressional Committee and the Democrats’ House Majority Fund have poured millions of dollars into Florida’s Congressional Districts 7, 13, 18 and 26 since the […]

At a fundraising breakfast Monday morning at the Brio Tuscan Grille in Winter Park, 7th Congressional District incumbent John Mica warned of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) trying to “buy” the election for his challenger, Stephanie Murphy.

We’re not “vibrant”? What a bummer. Among the gems in Monday’s Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) data dump was a look at the “Orlando Media Market,” in which yours truly gets a mention. Hacker (or hacking collective) Guccifer 2.0 posted “DCCC internal docs on primaries in Florida” on his/their/its blog. It mentioned the 7th Congressional District seat, held by Republican […]

(UPDATED) Lutz business consultant Jim Lange is learning the hard way why incumbent members of the House of Representatives get elected on average more than 96 percent of the time. The first-time Democratic candidate is challenging three-term incumbent Republican Dennis Ross in Florida’s 15th Congressional District, and he’s not doing all that great right now. “Overwhelmed,” “frustrating,” and “humbling” are some […]
