The petition states:
“It’s time to close the Congressional Favor Factory. That starts with eliminating wasteful earmarks that cost American taxpayers hundreds of millions of dollars every year and undermine their faith in Congress.
I support Senator Jim DeMint’s fight for commonsense earmark reform.”

Florida
In 2000, Florida played a crucial and controversial role in determining the next president. A year before the 2008 presidential elections, the state seems to be cementing that role again. After state Democrats bucked their national party by setting their primary a week earlier than mandated, the Democratic National Committee took away the state’s primary delegates. In response, state Democrats sued the DNC. In the general election, Florida is again the largest potential swing state.
Republicans are targeting freshman Democratic Rep. Tim Mahoney, who in 2006 narrowly won a historically GOP seat after Rep. Mark Foley was revealed to have sent lurid messages to congressional pages and resigned. State Rep. Gayle Harrell is among those seeking the nomination.
2004 results: President Bush won the state’s 27 electoral votes with 52% of the vote.
