Hey, Jeb? Are we having fun yet? The Right to Rise political action committee for former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, who said he would run a “joyful” campaign, is set to mount a multi-million dollar attack blitz on Sen. Marco Rubio, who is performing better in the race to become the GOP presidential nominee, accusing […]
Recent attacks on Marco Rubio’s voting record, personal finances and perspiration have only really underlined one thing very clearly: Most voters have more in common with the Florida senator than any other wannabe for the presidential nomination — in the GOP or the Democratic field. Credit card debt and issues? Been there. Penalties for cashing […]
The third debate for the Republican Party’s presidential nomination Wednesday seems to have been the best showcase so far for the differences between the self-proclaimed conservative candidates who want the White House. Sure, every single one of the A candidates (we’re not even counting the Happy Hour debaters) is the “only one up here” to do […]
Don’t expect the first Democratic presidential debate Tuesday night to light a match to the two GOP grudge matches that have already come and gone and gained record ratings for Fox and CNN. Hillary Clinton is just not as entertaining as Donald Trump. And Bernie Sanders isn’t quite as fiery a speaker as Marco Rubio. […]
In what may be one of the most stark contrasts between the two Miami men who would be president — not counting the crazy millionaire who is seriously deluded — young Jeb Bush supporters get Jebby, the candidate’s son, to rally them at South Florida events while Sen. Marco Rubio‘s fans get the real McCoy. […]
That was actually fun! Ladra loved the interaction at the GOP’s debate Wednesday night on CNN, but it’s too late to give a full analysis. We can get to that in the morning. Right now, it’s time for the instant, knee-jerk observations, relevant or not. It felt like they talked about immigration for far too […]

As Republican nominees for the 2016 presidential nomination prepare for the first debate Thursday by rehearsing their issues stances and going over (and over and over) their message points, political junkies in the 305 — where we have not one but two local boys in the running — prepare by purchasing bulk amount of chips […]
Lt. Gov. Carlos Lopez-Cantera, a former state rep and one-time Miami-Dade property appraiser who wants to replace Sen. Marco Rubio in D.C., is trying to cast himself as a near carbon copy of his would-be predecessor, a 2012 VP contender with the real potential to be the first Hispanic U.S. president. It ain’t gonna fly. Read related […]
Lo prometido es deuda and Lt. Gov. Carlos Lopez-Cantera will keep his promise from a month ago to make an announcement for his Senate run Wednesday — and he will do it at 1 p.m. at the Northwest Miami-Dade offices of a politically-connected businesswoman who was charged with tax evasion in the 90s. Well, at least […]
We keep hearing that the national Republican Party wants to include more Hispanics and appeal to more Latino voters. They keep saying that they respect our values and are better able to represent them. But when one of their own calls a large group of Hispanics in the U.S. drug dealers and rapists, the GOP […]
