Florida Democrats in play for GOP, especially RP

[malibu]

With Florida Democrats being stripped of their delegates to the national convention in August 2008, it seems like fertile area for Ron Paul and the opposition to the U.S. invasion of Iraq.

A short excerpt from an earlier Washington Post two months ago at :
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/08/25/AR2007082500275.html?hpid=topnews

"she expects all the presidential candidates to ignore the national party's edict and campaign vigorously in advance of the Sunshine State's primary"

Since these remarks, the Democrat Presidential candidates are not allowed to even campaign or place ads in Florida - although some grassroots activity apparently is going on for the general election.

The only problem is Florida is a closed primary. Democrats need to know when the registration switch deadline in and need to post it here prominently and meetups in Florida need to let Florida Democrats know how long they have to switch with newspaper ads and such.

This is important because there are a LOT of Yanks in Florida that are willing to vote for Rudy anf possibly Mitt.

I am assuming here that you have until 12.31.07 to register as a republican as well - and of course ALL independents (potential RP support) will have absolutely NO inclination whatsoever to register as a democrat for the primary without the possibility of seating a delegate to the nomination convention.

Florida is in play for Ron Paul !
