Bill McCollum at Tiger Bay

in Statewide/The Bay and the 'Burg by

Mansion Envy, or, Navy Man Wants to Board Sinking Ship – When elected in 2006, Florida’s Attorney General was heard to say he’d gotten the best job in Florida! Yet just two years later, Bill McCollum is eying the Governor’s Mansion should the Governor decamp for the U.S. Senate. In his time as the “AG” McCollum has focused like a laser-beam on kiddy porn and cyber crime, hunted gas stations which might be charging too much, and generally avoided making…

Oh, and by the way, the morning line favorite finished 19 out of 20, which reinforces the point…

I like Bill Foster. I really do!

in The Bay and the 'Burg by

So, like, I totally disagree with Bill Foster’s politics. In fact, if Bill is for something, I’m probably against it. And vice-versa. What’s worse is, Bill’s consultant, Jack Hebert, is my mortal enemy. So I haven’t missed a chance to bust Bill’s balls at every opportunity. But that doesn’t mean I don’t like Bill Foster. In fact, I really like Bill Foster. The guy is hilarious. I’ve run into him several times on the campaign trail and he’s been a…

With Scott Wagman’s profile in Sunday edition, first sign of Times’ bias displayed

in The Bay and the 'Burg by

Less than a dozen people actually care which one of the St. Pete mayoral candidates would be featured in the Sunday edition of the St. Petersburg Times — the edition with the broader distribution than the rest of the week’s. But I do care because my guy is not in the Sunday edition, instead it was Scott Wagman. Is it a coincidence that the article was written by Adam Smith, who, in the past, has been in the bag for…
