Jose Javier Rodriguez: Future State Senator and Current Dad. By Geniusofdespair



I can't imagine running a campaign and having a baby too. Jose Javier Rodriguez and my friend Sonia (his wife) are the parents of a 3 week old baby boy. I normally hate baby picture but when the parents are in the picture they are okay, because I mainly look at the parents. When I look at the baby I wonder about that appendage sticking out of his shoulder. I hope it is a parental finger.

I, Genius of Despair -- or as Brian May likes to remind me, Nancy Lee -- endorse Jose Javier Rodriguez for State Senate and will happily vote for him as I am in his district.

Please vote for this deserving candidate. Jose Javier Rodriguez got the State Teachers Union endorsement this week.

The lame local Miami Teachers Union endorsed the other guy, Miguel Diaz de la Portilla. Why would County Commissioner Sally Heyman endorse Miguel? She is a a Democrat, or maybe she forgot....like the local union.  Why would we put all this money and effort into redistricting -- to get more Democratic districts -- and the one district we can actually win, give it up to a Republican? Sally are you listening? It is not as if we have a lame candidate. This guy Jose is smart as a whip and a real gentleman, not like the other guy.

Even though Miguel describes himself as a "Family Man" one might be tempted to ask: "Which Family"? Diaz de la Portilla has become quite a whore, combining lobbying and lawmaking with a devil may care attitude. Lawmaking and lobbying at the same time is a
wicked mix. Ick to Miguel.

Miguel has done a great job as a Senator, I will vote for him this November.

I am the opposite. I like to look at the babies. They are amazing little people and I enjoy watching and interacting with them. They seem to be much smarter than ever and quickly develop skills in control and manipulation. That he wants to be in public office with a new baby is interesting. Politics is nothing compared to being with your child. They are a part of you that marches on into the future. If you win, always remember the baby is the MOST important thing you will ever produce and accomplish in your lifetime. Make time for the baby in your schedule, and as he grows, make sure he is an integral part of whatever you do.

Miguel has been friend of the disabled, students and the LGBTQ community. Both took sugar money. JJR is a DINO. Miguel is a RINO. I am voting Dem/Equality in November, so I am voting for Miguel.

Believing stupid stuff is really not unusual here.

Congrats to Rep. Rodriguez, he's a great guy through and through and will probably be a great father. I look forward to him representing us in the State Senate.

Jose Javier has been a true champion in Tallahassee for his district and Miami Dade County.

Diaz de la Portilla works as a lobbyist while being a Senator.

Says it all.

Calling Jose a DINO is utterly ridiculous. Know nothing Campaign worker troll?

Diaz de la Portilla is a developer's lobbyist. He turned from pro community interests when he was on the county commission to pro development, pro FPL, pro whatever made him money. Don't believe Diaz de la Portilla will represent the public interest especially when it comes to protecting the environment and standing up to polluting industries - Big Sugar, FPL , developers. Stop the old GOP dynasties. Vote for Jose Javier Rodriguez.

I heard Jose speak last Tuesday. He has an Impressive grasp of the political climate and a sensible priority of issues. His campaign sign is now in my front yard. I don't usually give access to this prime real estate for promotion, but I believe in his intellect and his leadership abilities.
