I find the mailings and posters disturbing, and even vulgar. I can understand why a PERSON would seek aid from legal counsel. The attacks may be common practice in Miami Beach, but that doesn't mean they should be common.

A big part of that budget was spent pissing on Gongora with his "negative" commercials.
