Even some Broward Democrats agreed that today’s visit by Caroline Kennedy appears to be a desperation move by President Barack Obama’s political machine. Organizing For America held the rally in Tamarac, usually a Democrat stronghold; Less than 300 Democrat faithful filed into the Tamarac Community Center to hear Ms. Kennedy’s lukewarm defense of Obama. The loudest applause came when Kennedy mentioned her late father, President John F. Kennedy and her late uncle, Senator Ted Kennedy.

Several Broward Democrat politicos attended the event: Clerk Of Courts Howard Forman, County Commissioner Sue Gunzburger, Tamarac Vice Mayor Diane Glasser, Sheriff wannabe Louis Granteed and School Board candidates Jaemi Levine, Bob Mayersohn and Shelley Solomon. Democrat operatives Jack Shifrel and Barry Harris stopped by too.

A few hours later at Wings Plus ( The Cafe Versailles of Broward), hosted a fundraiser for Broward State Attorney candidate Jim Lewis. Nearly fifty people came to support Lewis who hopes to finally retire Mike Satz (D-What Corruption?). Many members of the Republican Business Network came out to pledge their support for Lewis.

Some notables in attendance included: Coral Springs Commissioner and Mayoral candidate Vince Boccard, Coral Springs commission candidate Dan Daley, FL House candidate Jim Gleason, County Commission candidate Robert Sutton and Bill Lewis, host of The Credit Report With Bill Lewis.

The already crowded GOP field vying to take on Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Out of Touch) just got a little more crowded. Bill Lewis, host of The Credit Report With Bill Lewis WSBR 740AM, broke the news that Gineen Bresso will announce her candidacy for US CONGRESS CD-20. Ms. Bresso will compete for the GOP nomination with Ozzie DeFaria, Juan Eliel Garcia, Joe Goldner, Karen Harrington and Joe Kaufman.

Here is some background on Ms. Bresso from Lewis’ story at RedState.com:

“Former presidential appointee and elections attorney, Gineen Bresso, is set to announce Monday her candidacy to represent Florida’s 20th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives.

Bresso, 39, is challenging Democratic National Committee Chair and incumbent Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz.

‘I am prepared to work to restore fiscal responsibility, remove barriers to economic growth, and take the voice of the people to Washington D.C.’ stated Bresso. ‘Currently, the nation is facing significant troubles with a debt in excess of $15 Trillion and a staggering $1.1 Trillion deficit.’

Bresso was nominated by President George W. Bush and confirmed by the U.S Senate on October 2, 2008 to serve on the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC).

In 2009, Bresso served as Chair of the EAC. In contemplation of a Congressional run, she resigned recently after asking President Barack Obama to withdraw his nomination of her to serve a second term.

Prior to her appointment to the EAC, Bresso served as the Director of Legislative Operations and Counsel for the Committee on House Administration in the U.S Congress. Previously, she served as a policy advisor to former Maryland Governor Robert L. Ehrlich, Jr., and worked as an attorney-advisor for the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, where she reviewed and processed applications for federal trademark registration.

Bresso has also served as a judicial law clerk for the Honorable Arrie W. Davis, in the Maryland Court of Special Appeals.

Bresso received her Juris Doctor from Western New England College School of Law in 1999 and her Bachelor of Arts in political science from the University of Massachusetts at Amherst in 1995.”
