After hearing it all and letting the mud settle to the floor where it belongs. The clear choice for this race is Stan Jordan. He has run an honorable campaign. He has discussed the issues. He is not a corrupt lobbyist (Thrasher), He is not a cowardly whiner sending his wife out to defend him (Quiggle) with no experiance other than gagging on the silver spoon that mommy and daddy slammed down his throat. Simply put Stan Jordan is an honorable self made man who will represent Northeast Florida well.

There was no trial lawyers at Quiggles house, that is just the speculation about why Thrasher was spying on him.

Thrasher is not best for District 8 because he does not live in district 8. He lives in Orange Park, no matter what condo he bought in the district with his eeeevil trial lawyer lobbyist money.

If Jordan and Thrasher were not two reheated, recycled politicians I would take their service into consideration. Since that is not the case, and the “Trasher” Campaign has yet to prove that the trial lawyers are “backing” Quiggle, I will stick with him.

The real question is WHAT are they (trial lawyers) doing at Dan Quiggle’s house?

No true conservative Republican should want or need the backing of the Trial lawyers, period.

They are NOT: “for for the people.”

John Thrahser is the best man and experienced full spectrum conservative
of this group for Distric 8 in North Florida & then Art Graham second.

Bronzestararmy, I stand corrected. I just got the mailer from the Jordan campaign which shows Col. Stan Jordan, U.S. Army (Ret.) in a flight suit next to a helo. But can he fly fixed wing multi-engine supersonic aircraft? Mr. Jordan has done much for the veterans as well. I am not aware of any military service by either Graham or Quiggle. Both Jordan and Thrasher have served our country with Honor in their military service and I thank them for that.

The issues facing Florida and our next State Senator are taxes, crime, jobs and unemployment, the water supply, hurricane insurance, deteriorating infrastructure, education, rising medical costs, gambling and of course the sorry way the government treats our veterans to name a few. When it comes to this race we have seen little discussion on these topics and much discussed concerning who the “Ultra-liberal Personal Injury Trial Lawyers” are supporting or not supporting. Working in the Reagan Library, driving a 40 year old truck, and being best buds with Jeb Bush are all fine, but what about falling revenues and rising costs for government services?

When you look at who is attempting to carry the discussion to a point beyond name calling and chest thumping, one candidate is seen, Art Graham.

The wife comes out to defend the family of a candidate. Welcome to Jacksonville’s version of the reality TV culture we live in.

If you want my opinion, and even if you don’t : I say that our politicians have become like a bunch of second graders bickering. I would not want my children to look up to any of these people for a “good example” of being a good American. As the years have gone by, it seems that every campaign is about someone ” doing or did something wrong,” and someone trying to spend money on finding out something about the other candidates that they can bash them with. These politicians need to ” GROW UP. It is so rediculous to see these “adults” being such a POOR example to the American people. Why can’t we have the good, clean campaigns like there use to be? No wonder kids today are being the way they are and then the government wants to blame it all on the parents. Don’t they (politicians) know that the kids are seeing and hearing what they are doing as well? What a poor example. I think they need to clean up their act and start acting like grown adults and stop all the childish bickering. You will never find one candidate that runs for any office in America that does not have something they may have done in their past or present that was wrong. There are NO PERFECT PEOPLE in this world. Come on all you politicians, get your acts together and stop trying to dig up trash on someone else. If you would spend your time cleaning out your own closet, you wouldn’t have time to be digging in someone else’s. And when your closet is perfectly clean, then you can dig in someone else’s. Which will never happen if you really clean up your own. It is a lifetime job. Where are the strong morals that our politicians use to have??? And don’t forget, your own children are watching your actions also. Do you really want to be that kind of an example to your children and grandchildren???

Guess what, Just Another Republican, Stan Jordan got his pilots license in the United States Army. He flew combat helicopters, he commanded the squadron at Craig Field, he was awarded the Legion of Merit, He retired as an 06 that means Colonel. That is where he got his pilots license. Ask Art , Dan and John where they got theirs. Then ask Dan and Art what branch of the service they served. Looking forward to the answers. I imagine the silence will be deafening. By the way, why doesn’t Thrashers campaign video Thrasher’s Orange Park 2.2 million dollar house for all to see. I’m sure it’s just a rental property to John and the 250K “modest” townhome is his bona fide residence.

Thrasher lives in his condo instead of his Clay County mansion the same way Rooney lived in a kennel and Mahoney in a barn. Just a mailing address to be registered in distirct.

Wait a minute singlewide, John Thrasher lives in a modest condo in St. Augustine. You need to find out what, the ultra liberal personal injury trial lawyers don’t want you to know about John Thrasher. When did Stan Jordan get a pilot’s license? One candidate is worth a vote in this insane race. Vote Smart, Vote Art.
