The Davie Democrat running against Lauren Book for the Florida Senate District 33 seat is a huge supporter of Republican Presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson. Emmanuel Say Blimie filed his campaign paperwork last week. Book, a children’s rights advocate, is the overwhelming favorite in the SD 33 race.

The Liberian-born Blimie, a Nova Southeastern student, is an an author. According to his Amazon.com page, Blimie “continuously canvassed, advocated issues that were important to Broward County and the Democratic ticket including the legalization of marijuana for medical purposes. Emmanuel landed hands to the campaigns of Barack Obama, Joe Biden and Charlie Crist. He also sway voters to vote for Debbie Wasserman-Schultz and Bill Nelson.” However, Blimie’s time with the Crist campaign was short-lived.

Commenting on a November 2014 Tampa Bay Times story, Blimie wrote, ” I canvassed and then ceased two weeks into it. And my reason, voters were disengaged so badly that they wished there was an independent alternative…”

Nine months ago, Blimie was posting comments on the campaign website for Republican Presidential candidate Ben Carson. Blimie wrote, “My mission is, to win hearts and help elect Dr. Carson for President within my turf. I am a registered NPA and an a author. More on me at http://www.amazon.com/author/blimie.” Blimie used his work on the Obama campaign to impress Carson supporters.

“I canvassed for Obama in Florida and my turf ranked within the top for canvassing-door knocking, voter registration, phone calls and turnouts. I am talking about Broward County, Florida,” Blimie wrote. “Should you need a Field Organizer, or other aids in South Florida count me in.”

Hey Broward, Did You Make Ruth’s List?

Don’t forget to RSVP for the big “BROWARD COUNTY ‘MEET THE CANDIDATES’ RECEPTION” hosted by Ruth’s List. According to its website, Ruth’s List is “dedicated to building a progressive Florida by recruiting, supporting, and electing pro-choice, Democratic women to public office in Tallahassee, in county commissions, in city councils, and in other key positions around Florida.” Bleh, typical Democratic boiler plate drivel.

The real fun is found in the host committee. You’ll find Broward one-percenter Barbara Miller. Ms. Miller, responsible for many of our lousy school board members over the years, is rumored to have the blessing of the Florida Democrat Party to run things in Broward. Then of course you’ll recognize uber-lobbyist Judy Stern on the host committee. Hmmm, the invite mentions “libations”, does that mean salami sandwiches will be served? Let’s hope Judy’s latest client, Ilene Lieberman will bring a mango platter!

Red Broward is on Ruth Gordon’s list

Comedy will be provided when FL State Rep. Elaine Schwartz tries to explain why she believes Republicans are genetically inferior to Democrats. You’re a real “middle class hero”, Elaine!

Hope to see you all on June 25th at Barbara Miller’s palacial estate in Hallandale. Make sure someone invites the Occupy Fort Lauderdale folks.
