Connie, et al,

Fairly good size story on this in The Miami Herald today. I am confident in
my bias that the Cuban Exile will win. So sorry for Houston.

"The deal is" he's a MF Cuban Exile and they have more money than god and
don't play fair.

And no shit the Republicans have an agenda.

My computer isn't cooperating ... will send the Herald story later.

love and condolences
m-a
