    Alex,

    60-40 in a Democratic district is not a bad number.. Whoever does her books made a mistake, and it is fixed and settled … You ever made a mistake? I am sure you have.. she wasn’t stealing her own money

    Alex,
    60-40 in a VERY Democratic district is a very respectable …. Now they know Debbie even better, it won’t be 60-40 again…

    I know.. I saw the debate, but I am really glad you brought this up

    ” and then he talked about how there should be respectfulness in the campaign.” Yes, Ozzie needs to understand respectfulness. His record so far on respectfulness is Atrocious … Once again thank you for that.

    • Ozzie will be the nominee

      Actually Karen needs to understand respectfulness. Her own campaign manager, Anthony Bustamante, is the one who started heckling Ozzie. Her Field Coordinator, Patrick Castronovo, was booing and laughing throughout the debate. Her paid blogger, Javier, constantly attacks Ozzie. So how exactly has Ozzie been disrespectful? Open your eyes.

    Alex ,

    Where the heck did it say in the FEC letter that Karens staff Lied.

    SHOW ME That Statment


    • Uhhm it’s called a fine for lack of disclosure. Last time I checked, an omission was a lie. It was not an accident. Karen is a fraud & a democrat plant to secure DWS her position for 2 more years. Last election proved it. Sucker me once, your bad, sucker me twice, mine. It wont happen again!

    I think it was the Deputy who founds grounds to charge him..not Karen
    A mistake was made somewhere in regards to FEC, and they addressed it.. It wasn’t like she took her own money … Like people in business, one relies on “professionals ” to keep these things in order. Small mistakes are not uncommon in any accounting. There was NO suggestion that hse did something wrong by some design. She addressed it, and delt with it..

    Gee how refreshing !

    Once again this site, holds themselves to different standards than it practices …

    One more thing. One thing I saw watching Ozzie tapes, and the debate.. This guy is a loose cannon , and he has serious anger issues.. He is not used to, or likes when he is challanged … He has serious anger issues. You dont say “asshole” in response to a question in a debate, no matter WHY it was said.. It doesn’t matter WHy he racts like that..

    I can think of no time in my life, watching 1,000′s of debates where the cadidate called someone an asshole in response to a debate question… It is not a quality, or the response people want …

    I really like how people from thise site , once again, do the same things they dennounce in others

    • Ozzie will be the nominee

      Sorry to burst your bubble, “Broward Citizen,” but Ozzie didn’t call someone an a-hole. He just mentioned that a Harrington supporter in the audience had called him an a-hole and then he talked about how there should be respectfulness in the campaign.

  7. Karen will win

    Big whoop…a small fine. Karen is still the best for the job!

  8. Ozzie will be the nominee

    This is more proof that Karen is not the candidate to take on Debbie. Karen lost 38-60 against Debbie last time, and we can’t afford to let a weak candidate like Karen waste our chance to defeat Debbie this year.


  9. I told you it takes a Kaufman to be a Wasserman. Karen is washed up – her campaign is in disarray.


  10. And if Karen Harrington will lie to us & the US Gov’t. now, what do you think she will do if she ever got to Congress..? We have got to make sure she doesn’t win! If Karen wins, Debbie holds her seat for two more years again. Deja vu from 2 years ago! I’m supporting GINEEN BRESSO, the ONLY credentialed candidate in the race and certainly the ONLY true, Republican woman running! Vote for GINEEN and help take our nation back from the Socialists!

    Funny how Harrington’s team accuses Ozzie of being a wife-beater and other untrue BS stuff, and here she has been fined by the FEC for improprieties.
