Blinded by Charlie’s light?

Some people seem to think that our Republican governor is such a mensch that everything will be OK. We’re forgetting that he had a running mate, and in fact while Charlie has been basking in approval, the other guy made quite a booboo. It was rumored for days in the blogosphere, and finally emerged into print in Thursday’s Miami Herald.

Here's a link to one of the blogosphere reports.

It was the Florida Progressive Coalition that did most of the detective work, so it gets an extra star for good effort.

Now, what's this about? The Republicans will claim some doofus ignorance about the "internets," as W says, or "the tubes," as the elderly Alaska senator for life says. But what was happening here was a little censorship. A Republican official (the lt. governor) editing out some unflattering personal information about himself. And doing it on a public forum where editing is only supposed to be done by qualified persons -- certainly not the subject of the critical item.
