FL-09 is, of course, the district that Alan Grayson is currently hoping to carpetbag – apparently the poor fellow has discovered that he has precisely zero reason to exist, outside of Congress. It’s very sad – and the GOP is equally hopeful that they can stop him. I talked to one of the candidates last week: Mark Oxner, businessman. We discussed the race, and a good bit about why Mark was running.
Mark’s site is here; the primary is August 14th.

Seriously. FL-09 is the district that’s going to end up having Alan Grayson as the Democratic nominee, which makes it doubly important that the Republican primary not descend to any sort of negativity. Grayson’s campaign, like any other cornered Rattus norvegicus, will undoubtedly seize upon anything that might distract from their central problem: to wit, that their candidate is Alan Grayson. So I wish to be careful about this until the August primary. Accentuate the positive, eliminate the negative, that sort of thing.
Fortunately, finding out that GOP House candidate Mark Oxner is a Philip K Dick fan counts as a positive – at least, to me. I wish I had known that he read SF when I met with him recently; I would have brought it up.
