County Mayoral Candidate Joshua (aka Josue) Larose opens about 100 Political Action Committees in Miami Dade County. By Geniusofdespair

To understand just how odd this is, before Mayoral Candidate Larose opened these 100 PAC's, there were only about 50 PAC's in Miami Dade County...for years!! He has to open a bank account for each from what I am told. I did a spot check - he opened them in January 2011. The phone number he gives in the paperwork rings but then disconnects. I reported on Larose once before: If It Weren't So Sad...It Would Be Funny.

Hit on read more to see Larose's PAC list (wait till you see some of the names) and to read about this odd guy:

Bio:Often described as a ’serial candidate’ or ‘frequent filer’, Josue Larose qualified for the Congressional District 19 race as a write-in candidate. Larose ’s name will not appear, but the April 13 ballot will include a space for write-ins. Deerfield Beach resident Larose was also a write-in candidate in three special state legislative elections this year and has opened a 2010 campaign for governor. Haitian born and a self-described millionaire economist, music producer and lobbyist, the 28-year-old is waging three campaigns under the first names “Joshua” and “Josue” and has raised $100,000 in his bid for governor, according to the Florida Division of Elections. He has already had dramatic effect on one race. His presence as a write-in candidate in the special election for State Senate District 8 forced a Republican primary that the Duval County Supervisor of Elections said cost about $300,000 and prompted officials to consider changing the county’s election rules. He has run under different names and for numerous offices. As Joshua LaRose, he ran for Miami Mayor, however a bounced check caused him to be disqualified in Sept 2009.

Does he have any relationship with ethically challenged Ken Forbes? If this wasn't so weird, I'd be laughing.

I Think Xavier Suarez and Joe Carollo might have also used it.

He has also sponsored hundreds of PACs and Political Parties at the state level. Is he crazy, or just a squatter, hoping that somebody will pay him for the use of the names? Maybe he casts a wide net and hopes unsophisticated people will send in political contributions. Either way, it looks like he is gaming the system for a selfish aim.

Hey, some of those PAC names make more sense than the evil Natacha's latest PAC Abre Los Brazos, which means Open The Arms - I don't know what for, maybe it's to carry the boxes of stolen tax dollars, or to squeeze all her enemies in one giant gushy manatee-loving bully bear hug. Puleeezzz, open your arms my rear end...

LaRose did not qualify for the Senate Race despite his website and his declaration of intent.....

REALLY? Does anyone think "Josue LaRose" is real? Did this fictitious character submit any info like a SSN to apply for these ridiculous PACs. Hmmm... Yeah, it's funny alright!
