Analysis from Mr. Lee:
The key to political victory is successfully framing the issues. The GOP has been pounding us with their false messages for years. But that ends now. Today's issue is....
Bad Politicians
Ronald Reagan said, “Government is not the solution, government is the problem.” He was wrong. Government is not the problem, bad politicians and bad policies are the problem.
And it is the bad Republican politicians and their bad policies that have caused every crisis our nation has faced, The Civil War, the Teapot Dome Scandal, The Great Depression, Watergate, Enron, and Bush's Great Recession. And it is only by electing good leaders, not bad politicians that will fix our problems.
So let's go out there and "WIN AGAIN IN 2010."

Subject: Testing Time for the Everglades. Make the call and send the email.
Dear Everglades ally:
With a YES vote on Wednesday, the state of Florida will soon be holding the deed to land more than double the total mass of the City of Miami to help restore the Everglades and keep our water wells flowing with fresh water instead of salt water.
The purchase means we will be much closer to restoring the Everglades without having to spend tens of billions of dollars on dangerous and unreliable deep water wells. It means that we will have more land to clean up Everglades-toxic Phosphorus before it heads south. It means we’re closer to an end to fish kills in the Caloosahatchee basin and Indian River Lagoon. It means we’re closer to a day when fires won’t ravish Shark River Slough and erode the organic peat that keeps the Everglades out of the sea. It means everything is possible.
But if we do nothing, we will simply return to the box we’ve created, and the death of the Everglades continues.
I ask you to CALL and E-MAIL your South Florida Water Management District Governing Board member(s) Today and Tuesday and express your support for the U.S. Sugar Purchase. We are one vote away. Their info is below. [Miami-Dade County SFWMD Governing Board members:]
