Justices R. Fred Lewis, Barbara Pariente and Peggy Quince, whose names are on the retention ballot in November. The three ran afoul of Republican and conservative groups opposed to the federal Affordable Healthcare Act. They are being targeted because the state Supreme Court struck down a constitutional amendment proposed by the Legislature that would have been a referendum on the Affordable Care Act or Obamacare.
The Republican Party of Florida made waves last week when it formally opposed three sitting Florida Supreme Court justices’ attempts to keep their jobs.
Rep. Connie Mack IV is heavily favored to win the Republican Senate primary and take on Democratic incumbent Bill Nelson in November. Mack faces former Rep. Dave Weldon, who is seen as lacking the name recognition and campaign cash to effectively reach voters statewide.
Tea Party activists are taking on a number of moderate silent Republican congressman.

State Senate President Mike Haridopolos, R-Merritt Island, has all but announced his candidacy. He is not well known statewide, but his legislative position will enable him to raise considerable money and elevate his profile. "I was conservative before conservative was cool,'' said Haridopolos, a 40-year-old university lecturer and consultant who may be the nominal frontrunner. "I've been a consistent conservative my entire career and made a career converting the Florida Senate from a liberal-to-moderate place, where liberals and trial lawyers and tax advocates won, to a place that is unquestionably fiscally conservative now." Haridopolos has been firing salvos against Nelson for months. In July, he sent Nelson a letter seeking answers to what he deemed pressing questions about Florida's future. Six days later, with no response, Haridopolos issued a news release using his Senate office letterhead. "It is important that Floridians know what Sen. Nelson plans to do in the coming months as our state's senior senator to make up for the inaction they have seen," it read.
U.S. Rep. Connie Mack, R-Fort Myers, has taken a similarly aggressive posture against Nelson. Just before Election Day, his campaign issued an unusual fundraising appeal that lacked any reference that Mack was on the ballot for the U.S. House. Instead it cast Nelson as a liberal "professional politician." Mack, 43, followed up with another attack on Nelson and President Barack Obama after the November unemployment numbers were released. Thanks to sharing the name of his father, the former Florida senator, the younger Connie Mack IV already enjoys the kind of statewide name recognition most other contenders lack. That may give him more time than others to decide whether it's worth risking a safe congressional seat. "I haven't made any decision to run. I haven't made any decisions not to run,'' said Mack, who is married to U.S. Rep. Mary Bono of California. "Some of my very good friends around the state have called and encouraged me to run. But this is a decision I'll have to make on my own time, and I don't feel the time is now."
Former state House Majority Leader Hasner, 40, is talking to key Republican leaders across the state and country and expects to make a decision after the holidays. Hasner, one of the first prominent elected Republicans to publicly criticize Gov. Crist, is little known in much of the state but is well connected and can raise money across the country from Jewish Republican operatives. He is married to a savvy campaign strategist, Jillian Hasner, who most recently managed Meg Whitman's gubernatorial campaign in California.
U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Sarasota, has long been viewed as a future Senate candidate but lately sounds more focused on his new post as the only Floridian on the influential House Ways and Means Committee. A multimillionaire who can self-fund a campaign, Buchanan, 59, has the luxury of waiting until late in the political season to decide his future.
Plant City Republican Mike McCalister declared his candidacy Dec. 6 in the Villages. The retired Army colonel was a late entry in the race for governor this year and took a surprising 10 percent of the vote in the GOP primary, which helped Rick Scott defeat Bill McCollum.
Florida provided an estimated 15,000 troops and significant amounts of supplies—including salt, beef, pork, and cotton—to the Confederacy, but more than 2,000 Floridians, both African American and white, joined the Union army. Confederate and foreign merchant ships slipped through the Union navy blockade along the coast, bringing in needed supplies from overseas ports. Tallahassee was the only southern capital east of the Mississippi River to avoid capture during the war, spared by southern victories at Olustee (1864) and Natural Bridge (1865). Ultimately, the South was defeated, and federal troops occupied Tallahassee on May 10, 1865.
Before the Civil War, Florida had been well on its way to becoming another of the southern cotton states. Afterward, the lives of many residents changed. The ports of Jacksonville and Pensacola again flourished due to the demand for lumber and forest products to rebuild the nation's cities. Those who had been slaves were declared free. Plantation owners tried to regain prewar levels of production by hiring former slaves to raise and pick cotton. However, such programs did not work well, and much of the land came under cultivation by tenant farmers and sharecroppers, both negro and white.
Cheap Hand signs have long served as status symbols, fashion accessories, advertising pieces, and commemorates. They've even (purportedly) been used as a means of communication between the sexes, as when a Victorian-era young lady would touch her right sign with a closed fan to supposedly sign query, "When may I see you?" or draw it through the hand to signal "I hate you!"
Hand Signs cheap
Most printed hand fans can be categorized as either non-folding or folding. The "fixed" or "flat" variety originated first and was often composed of such materials as feathers, woven plant materials, stretched skins or fabrics.
Fixed cheap custom printed hand fans, which often resemble ping-pong paddles, are still produced cheap today. Now usually made of paper, cardboard, or plastic, fixed fans for the hand are inexpensive to manufacture, and their flat surfaces make them ideal advertising or souvenir pieces. Vintage and antique specimens bearing images of animals, famous persons or locations, companies, etc., are all avidly sought after by custom collectors.

Beginning in 1868, the federal government instituted a congressional program of "reconstruction" in Florida and the other southern states. During this period, Republican officeholders tried to enact sweeping changes, many of which were aimed at power for the carpet baggers, and electing RINO Republican US Senators
At the time of the 1876 presidential election, federal troops still occupied Florida. The state's Republican government and recently enfranchised Negroes voters helped to put Rutherford B. Hayes in the White House, and elect liberal Republican US senators. However, Democrats gained control of enough state offices to end the years of Republican rule and prompt the removal of federal troops the following year. A series of political battles in the state left negroes with little voice in their government. and white.
