    Democratic U.S. Senate candidate Kendrick Meek is everywhere holding grass roots political events, while Sink’s main Republican gubernatorial rival, Bill McCollum, regularly has “Breakfast with Bill” community meetings or rolls out grass roots campaign teams. Democrats say they see little pulse with the Sink campaign unless it involves soliciting campaign checks.

    “As a grass roots organizer, it’s difficult to make a case for a candidate who is unknown. I’ve never been contacted by the campaign,” said Ann Zucker, president of the Weston Democratic Club in Broward County. “I am disenchanted with Alex Sink. She doesn’t seem to like talking to the grass roots.”

    Of additional concern, no statewide officeholder is more uncomfortable dealing with the Tallahassee press corps than Sink, who tends to cut off reporters even before her press handlers and has several times been caught on video curtly walking away from reporters pressing her for answers.  

  4. …has been something of a disappointment. i hope we’re not making the same mistake we made in 06 when we went with jim davis over rod smith. this state is in the dumper and has been controlled by the gop from top to bottom for the last 12 years. if we can’t make any headway under these conditions then we can kiss florida goodbye.
