Hey, if anyone counts County Commissioner Randy Morris as a gold seal endorsement for Michael Blake they should think twice.    Morris is as untrustworthy a politician as they come.    ( PUBLISHER --- There's some other rather questionable endorsements also. )

            For instance, Morris was instrumental in removing 5 acres of land from the Spring Hammock to trade over to car dealership Bill Ray Nissan in order to extend the paved car lot.     What was most bothersome of about the deal to trade off the land was that those 5 acres were part of the natural lands that county citizens voted to tax themselves to buy for preservation.   (PUBLISHER -- Watch out Black Hammock -- Blake's campaign is not truthful !)

            Now it is evident Morris’s connection with Bill Ray Nissan has reaped rewards for his buddy Michael Blake because of the fact that Blake has his big campaign sign on the Bill Ray Nissan property.    The upshot of all this is that Bill Ray Nissan has announced it is abandoning that 17/92 location to move the dealership to Sanford’s car mall area in the vicinity of Rinehart Road. 

            So this should be a big lesson not to turn your back on a politician once you cast your referendum vote to tax yourselves more to buy natural lands, but more importantly it is a big lesson to distrust Michael Blake who has been mentored by snake-oil salesman Morris for the last 10 years.

PUBLISHERS NOTE:   It seems to be a troublesome area when candidates reach out, and grasp for straws when seeking recognition.    Such also would be the case of some of Blake's other endorsements.     One where Blake claims that Congressman Feeney not only endorses him (no proof other than pictures), but also that he appointed him to a State office.    That's kind of far fetched --- since Feeney is a United States representative, and Governor Bush has a hard time making ANY endorsements.

            But two of the most important factors that standout with the one pointed out above by the email above is that Seminole County Commissioner Morris was a seated member of that commission while at the same time an agent for the huge real estate development at Tuscawilla Road and Aloma.   How that got away as ethical behavior is still an unknown. 

            Another GLARING endorsement is that of Brenda Carey who also seated as a County Commissioner is a paid lobbyist for a huge developer.    That was even published in the Orlando Sentinel as was the Morris incident.     Political pull and power breeds strange bedfellows, and Blake is NO STRANGER to his commissioner's use of strong arm tactics when it comes to the City of Winter Springs grabbing land, annexing, and over developing.

Blake is chasing far fetched stars instead of campaigning on issues !
