He is getting lots of interest from Democrats and Republicans fed up with the main party power brokers. We have pleadges of support in the legislature by such candidates of the D's and R's if they are elected despite their party machines. Max sees the fundemental problem as the permanent structures of the D's and R's who are sclerotic, frozen in time and serving only themselves. Hence the Term Limits fight. It is his core and it resounds to his advantage in every issue he will approach. The Homeowner's insurance crisis was brought about by D's and R's and they are unwilling to shed the special interest money of lobbyist for the industry. Education is another do nothing act of the Flroida Govt. Max has no such baggage. Failure of Insurance can kill the Florida economy ie building, Finance, furnishings, in short the American dream of home onwership. If you are local to St Petersburg, come meet him this Sunday August 6th at noon to 3 pm at 6133 West Central Ave St Petersburg FL 33710 Music Food Beverages and Speeches and a beach party to follow. www.maxlinn.com or http://rpfla.org Max Linn is fiscally conservative/ socially moderate and a small – L

Their nominee in 2000 was Pat Buchanan, but that was because the national party (or what was left of it) nominated him. Actually the Reform Party of Florida put Ralph Nader on the ballot in 2004.

I bet the Reform Party HQ in Florida has a red light on its porch.

As someone who has been highly critical of Third Party Watch in the recent past, I would like to commend Austin for the excellent coverage he's provided in the past month or so on the third-party and independent candidates competing in this year's mid-term elections. The dynamic, amusing, almost Hunter Thompson-esque on-the-scene coverage of the Libertarian convention in Portland last month, courtesy of Joe Magyer, was truly outstanding. It would be really neat if Austin could provide the same kind of coverage of all of the significant third-party national conventions in 2008. That would really be a unique and splendid service to the hundreds of thousands of voters in the United States who are looking beyond the two old parties for solutions to the myriad of problems plaguing this country. In any case, it will be interesting to see if Doug Friedline --- a real blast from the past --- can breath new life into the dormant Reform Party, not only here in Forida, but across the nation. Good work, Austin! This is a terrific story.

Florida is ripe for a major change. The only hold back is the voter. I noticed some voters tend to let the government run on autopilot after the election. This trend also lets the elected forget their words spoken or written to the public. Maybe there should be a reality show for the new Governor? This might cut the need for long boring speeches and free up appointment times. Work on the fly and in your face action, now that might be fun... [after thought] I don't think I'll ask FOX to edit.

I was involved in the first ever Jack Gargan/Reform Rally in Tampa in the early 1990s. It's a shame though, that the Reform Party has taken a dive nationwide. Libertarian-minded voters truly need a mainstream libertarian alternative 3rd Party to the hapless Libertarian Party. Jesse Ventura for President in 2008!! This sounds good.
