He has been in office a long, long time; but been a pretty consistent moderate Republican. His best days were on the school board long ago. He has no shot in this race whatsoever. It is obvious this race has become the trial lawyers against the business community and Florida consumers. ( follow the $ money) John Thrasher is the best conservative Republican statesman amomg these four men for District 8. It is incorrigible how people are trying to tarnish his legacy and reputation by distortion. One can only hope that Dan Quiggle gains some political experience on the local level before he's elected to serve in such a powerful seat. Stan Jordan needs to retire from public office.

Its all about the numbers and money. He and Adam Guilette hire very young, pretty cheerleader type girls straight out of college, mislead them about the challenges and workload, and pay them very little because they also have no knowledge of the industry. Mr. Quiggle's company was fined by the Dept. of Labor, had to pay employees settlements and forced to change the hours of operation. And yes, Frank, Mr. Quiggle has been known to withhold paying employees their vacation due, hours, etc. upon leaving. However, it may just depend on the circumstances of their departure and his mood. Adam is a laughingstock, Quiggle's mini-me and an inept idiot. The fact that he attempted to run for Mayor of Gainesville still leaves me laughing. Mr. Quiggle is the ultimate optimist, a go-getter with a constant smile and a knack for knowing how to get the business in the door for any enterprise he may begin, If there is any doubt about him getting along in DC, I believe he can sell snake oil and make you think it tastes like chicken. As usual, We The People are forced to choose between the lesser of two evils, and compared to Thrasher........ I just hope if Dan does win, Adam doesn't go to DC with him, he will be laughed out of the Senate. Mr. Quiggle runs a “title mill”, without the least bit of knowledge of the industry.

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. After hearing it all and letting the mud settle to the floor where it belongs.

Quiggle and Terry have absolutely nothing in common.

I would probably have to go with....I don't know....Maybe FDR??? I have a couple of questions that maybe some Quiggle fans can answer.... 1) Do all of the members of Americans for Prosperity vote to spend AFP money on the Quiggle Campaign or are Quiggle and Guilette just stealing the money??? 2) Quiggle states he started a bunch of businesses. That's great. However, is it true that he closed the doors and robbed employees of their pay in the process???? Is he being sued for any of it. 3) Isn't Quiggle in the same camp as the last guy who ran for the Senate seat....Randall Terry?? Are they from the same clique out there in PVB???? Reagan is not the greatest leader of the 20th century as much as you would like to think. I would probably have to go with….I don’t know….Maybe FDR???

His shrill accusations are starting to sound a little unbalanced, as does his frequently dropping out of sight, and his standing there mutely while his wife did his press conference for him. He and his wife have acknowledged publicly that far from being an outsider with a distaste for politicians, he's a political junkie and always has been. This is a guy who burns to be elected to something. His good fortune is he's a smooth talker who is very good at pushing the voters' buttons. The interview above, which Mr. Quiggle's campaign wrote, is a highly concentrated mix of poll-tested hot response words and phrases. All of his pontificating and "Reagan, Reagan, Reagan" were cast in a disturbing new light when it was revealed that he is, in fact, having clandestine meetings with the trial lawyers to coordinate their support. No matter how slimy Thrasher was in taping it, Quiggle's"principled stands" are still revealed as political conveniences as he aligns himself with the least conservative and most self-serving players in this election, in order to help himself. Mr. Quiggle is the heir to a long line of self-promoting frauds who wrap themselves in the flag. If elected, he'll be the Florida Senate's version of Joe McCarthy. By now we know better than to choose an inexperienced newcomer promising change. Mr. Quiggle is a loose cannon – he’s just the kind who will always attack people.
