As a longtime resident of Central Florida, it's been my distinct displeasure to experience the depths of Republican loyalism and partisan ridicule of viewpoints that aren't "Guns, Guts and God".
Nothing characterizes the distilled intolerance and willful ignorance that are hallmarks of this area's more conservative denizens like the "representation" of Adam Putnam here in Florida's 12th Congressional District. Letters to Putnam that aren't supportive of his party's priorities get a dismissive form letter in response. Phone calls to Putnam opposing his party's priorities are dropped into the black hole BY DIRECTION, as I've learned from someone who knows firsthand how things are run in Putnam's DC office and in Bartow.
However, I'm happy to report that a fresh, electable alternative is running to provide REAL representation, not the rubber-stamping of Bu$h's wishes and GOP partisanship that actually fill Adam Putnam's suit.
