Jeff Greene (D) airs first ads in his bid to upend Meeks for the Senate Nomination
Billionaire and Democratic Senate candidate Jeff Greene is hitting the airwaves with two ads depicting him as a political outsider and successful businessman.

Greene, who earned his riches betting on the real estate market's rise and fall, is spending more than a million dollars on the statewide ad campaign that begins Tuesday.

In both, he highlights the fact that his isn't a politician... http://www.gainesville.com/article/20100518/ARTICLES/100519415/1034?Title=Billionaire-Greene-airs-first-2-Senate-ads

1. Meeks
is absolutely invisible as far as press coverage for his campaign goes. Very weak democratic candidate who we are wondering if a vote for will be a wasted one. If it comes down to Crist or Rubio we'll vote for Crist

2. Meeks is no where in sight on the west coast of Fla..he may be known among Dem Party activists but
the everyday voter doesn't know squat about him..Rubio came on the scene fast and furious on the west coast in ads against Crist early March and April with Meeks totally unseen...the dem activists i have no fear will vote Meeks ...unless they realize he has a snowballs chance in hell of winning..then they will turn to Crist...they will not take the chance of Rubio winning...Rubio is Jeb's water boy..I don't know of any dem that will sit back and allow Rubio to win our state. They may not say it publically..but they are wispering it very loudly!

5. i just got push polled against meek.
Edited on Sat Jun-12-10 12:29 PM by ellenfl
i'm not a virgin anymore.

when the guy started asking me to rate meek by citing specifics (money to his mother, car from donor, etc.), i said he was push-polling me for greene, wasn't he. he said yes. the bias was unmistakable. i wish meek would get out into the public eye more. he won't win unless he does.

of course, it didn't help that the push poller called me 'sir'. i get that all the time because i have a very deep voice. sometimes though, like today, it can be irritating.

florida dems be ready for this. perhaps if enough of us can call them out, they will quit . . . but i doubt it. i'm sure they will convince some less informed voters to not vote for meek. i definitely will not vote for greene after this . . . even if we are remotely related.

GREENE IS PUSH POLLING! as far as i'm concerned, he'll never get my vote.
