Comander vs Kramer - thoughts?

I thought Kramer was running as an Independent, not as a "D"?

He is. Some need to check facts.

So you don't vote in the primaries?



Uh oh grandpa's got the mic.

Andy, the State of Florida is pretty big. We have enormous counties to the south. In fact there is one right here in North Florida that was the first to combine both a city and county government. In those larger counties you probably wouldn't be able to speak to a county commissioner by simply calling them. While many might think that simply doing away with political parties would work, it's simply mind boggling what a ballot would look like without primaries and political parties.

BTW, I'm a registered Democrat and I am voting for Sara Comander. The alternative is just to far out and bizarre.

(Folks I'll probably take a beating for this one.)

o yes things are going so well the losers we have in there now!

Do work on Comanders staff?

Yes, I think you are exactly correct. He is a very good resource who would better serve the county as a "spokesman for the citizens" than as a Commissioner who's every vote on a development or realty issue would be open to suspect and criticism.

What better way to serve the citizens than to inform the board when something is best for all. and not just for the 30A elite. But then money talks. This man started here with nothing and only wants to give back to the working people not just the "retired" 30A'ers

Why are you referring to yourself in 3rd. person? Just come on as David Kramer instead of David Kramer's business, and answer whatever questions the voters may have for David Kramer. :idontno:

Put your real name and phone #'s out there and I'm sure you'll do fine.

No wonder your a Scott man

David, you are a registered Democrat. There are two ways to be a true Independent in the State of Florida. One is to register with the Independent Party of Florida. The other is to register with the third largest group, which is No Party Affiliation, or what I would consider true Independents. What you are doing, imho, is confusing voters because you are a registered Democrat using the system. What you have done is point out another weakness in the election laws in this State which hopefully will be corrected in this next legislative session. Unfortunately, every time they fix something, they usually end up breaking something else. But as it stands, the Department of State, Division of Elections, has said that there is nothing wrong with a candidate actively working to confuse voters, just so long as the little bitty disclaimer is correct.

What you "consider" and what is fact or two things. I "consider" Scott to be a liar and a crook..

Sorry but you're not going to be allowed to make statement like this claiming fact without some explanation, links, proof, etc.

You have some strong opinions about local politics. I'd appreciate it if you would share your knowledge and experience in a meaningful way instead of taking pot shots with one liners.

Help us out here.

Which Scott are you talking about, Ronald Vest? I didn't see any "Scott" mentioned in the quote you posted. Are you talking about Walton County Commissioner Scott Brannon, who is not running against Kramer? Or, are you talking about Rick Scott who is running for Governor? Or, someone else?

Does Mr. Kramer have any comment on why the Emerald Coast Association of Realtors endorses Mr. Kramer's opponent, Sara Comander, even though Mr Kramer is a real estate broker?

I'm sorry, could you rephrase that in grammatically correct English?

If this is indicative of a Kramer supporter then I'm even more confident that I have made the correct choice.

I think the OP is referring to Rick Scott (R) for Governor. It's an over sensitive, and off topic, reaction to wroberts avatar. Similar to yelling Fox News in a democratic function.

Give me a break!

So now we're supposed to believe that DK is doing this to give back to the community when how he presents himself at many meetings is clearly for his own self interest?

I had a bit of trouble with Commander back in the 80's when my mother died, and we had a bit of juggling with my mother's body. Mom was at Commander's Funeral Home, and I had Mr. Clary go and get her. Not a pleasant situation. Also, had a bit of previous history.
I?m republican, and am unfortunately wary of Rick Scott's campaign. Not completely sure who I'll vote for there.
Most elections in Walton County are won or lost in the primary's, with the least amount of voters participating. To get to the general election, you need to register as independent, of no party affiliation, or be fortunate enough to win in the primary.
I would hope that whoever wins the commissioner race would be in the best interest for the county, particularly in this day, when dealing with not only recessionary problems, but also the impact of the oil spill woes.
As I have said before, we need to broaden our horizons and introduce new industry here. Having all our eggs in one basket is not wise. We need to be more business friendly, and actually help business succeed.
I think the county should bring in an advertising specialist, to assist in the planning and developing. It seems we have had everything else but.

:lolabove:

Please go run DK's campaign.

Dawn Moliterno (sp?) brought in tons of outside advertising agencies for the chamber, she's taking that experience to the TDC.
