Steve Schale, former (and quite successful I might add) head of the Florida for Obama campaign committee will endorse Kendrick Meek as Democratic candidate for US Senate in the upcoming 2010 race to replace retiring senator Mel Martinez. Schale will announce this in a press conference today.
This is great news, since most of the mainstream media buzz surrounding the race appears to focus solely on the single-term republican governor Charlie Crist versus Marco Rubio race as though those two are the only ones running.
With the race for healthcare reform stuck in the doldrums, and Bill Nelson on the fence about a public-run option, we need to help elect a candidate who embraces the liberal progressive agenda.
I think the race just got kicked up a notch with this hugely important endorsement.
