A Florida Republican that you need to read about:

What it says in this article, is that Floridians are ready to pick someone who is willing to fight the good ole boys. Learn from her, and give us better candidates for the next election:

In a single day, Jacobs and the voters delivered a powerful blow to everyone from the chamber of commerce to Buddy Dyer — essentially all of the cogs in the region's status-quo power machine that tried to keep Jacobs from being mayor.

Sorry, boys, business as usual is history.

To fully appreciate the improbability of what Jacobs accomplished, you must realize that she approached public service like a butcher who craved only one kind of meat: sacred cow.

She took on developers, tourism bosses and career politicians. Basically, if there was a powerful interest to whom other politicians sucked up, Jacobs stood up. She did so on behalf of crowded schools, clogged roads and fans of ethical and transparent government.
