Did I Call It Or What?

400 hundred fuckin applicants in one day?! Padding. Pure psychological warfare. This is a party in serious trouble. I don't have to be there to tell you that and you don't have to believe an old SG Senator to see the writing on the wall. I've said this till I'm blue in the face...when we won the first round in '04, things got real dirty.

I have still have ties from Voice with ISA and I'm going to use my all to see what I can find out. Lisa Turtlee Patel didn't randomly come up with this sordid idea...someone put the idea into her head and these Gator Party bureaucrats feigning amnesia is mighty fishy.

Fuckin Alligator...birdcage-liner-journalism. Don't they have any investigative journalists? And look at old Student Body Treasurer Paul Drayton mouthing off about the law... and he actually would think bribing student organizations would be unethical. Actually, huh? Actually? Interesting selection of words.

Also interesting how SG's #2 man feels that winning votes by alleging bugetary preference is not illegal. Sadly for Drayton Enron is no longer in business, but I'm sure any corporation would be lucky to have him. Such high moral standards and all.

And HSA is not partisan? Let's take a look at their exec board. And what kind of a person serves as president of an allegedly non-partisan organization, but then takes on a role as the President of political party. That's almost akin to winning executive office and dipping out your first term. Can anyone say conflict of interests? Can you say unethical? From now on Luis Nobriga will be referred to on this blog as Manuel Noriega, former Panamanian strongman.

p.s.
All but one seat...fuckin amazing. Way to go Orange & Blue.

The Future Is Bright

Naadira Renfroe's future in UF Student Government seems brighter than ever. Anonymous emails submitted to TheRadikal.com indicating support in certain honoraries and organizational councils were verified over the course of the last week. [My] Gator insiders (including learned alums) believe that Naadira Renfroe will be named to an important position in the Gator Party for the Fall 2008 campaign, with a strong push by the African American bloc to have Renfroe placed in serious contention for the Student Body Vice Presidency in 2009. If selected, Renfroe would be in strategic position to run for the Student Body Presidency in 2010 (almost a decade after the presidency of one Nikki Fried).

In the event Gator splits, the African American vote will be critical. Many student leaders, speaking on condition of anonymity, believe Johnson will run with or without the support of the majority of Gator. Unlike Ridgway & Weiss before him, many believe Johnson would blitz the line of scrimmage and go all the way to a run-off if need be. Johnson's chief rival to date, is Kellie Dale, which everyone swears will be gone & graduated by then. Dale, according to independents, is one of the least popular and most inept senate presidents in recent history. However, poor marks from independents are worth their weight in gold on fraternity & sorority row.

Whoever gets in the mix for '09-'10 will need the African American community and I believe those of you on the ground will see key realignments this Fall.
