There is no debate date set yet between the two candidates in what has been deemed as one of the most closely watched and flippable congressional races in the country, but the themes in Florida’s District 26 are already going from local to national. It’s not like challenger Carlos “Crybaby” Curbelo is going to completely drop […]
Common Sense NOW, the PAC that helped get Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos “Cry Wolf” Gimenez elected, has spent about $34,000 this year — all on polls and “data research,” which is a fancy way to say polling. The most recent payments of $3,000 a piece each were made Aug. 6 and Aug. 19, which came after […]
Ding, dong, the witch ain’t dead, folks. She’s only injured. Miami-Dade Commission Vice Chair Lynda Bell may have been defeated a the polls last week, bounced by voters that were tired of her self-serving, anti-employee rule.

No sooner had the results been posted online that U.S. Congressman Joe Garcia came out swinging in the general election race against Miami-Dade School Board Member Carlos “Crybaby” Curbelo, who won a mandate from Republican voters Tuesday when he got 47% of the nod for the nomination. Less than two hours after precincts closed, Garcia’s […]
For months, there have been whispers about a possible recall of Miami-Dade Mayor Carlos “Tainted Boy” Gimenez, who was put in the county’s top position through the recall of his predecessor Carlos Alvarez. This week, the firefighter father of one of the young men killed in a boating accident on the Fourth of July said […]
One might assume that Sen. Marco Rubio and Miami-Dade School Board Member Carlos Curbelo were thick as thieves. But they were once enemies. A negative attack on Curbelo financed by the campaign of Cutler Bay Mayor Ed “Mac” MacDougall reminds voters that the one-time political consultant used to work for former Florida Gov.
