INSIDER COLUMN: Election Season on WMMB

The Primary Election had its share of controversy on the Space Coast. WMMB is not new to that; when you’re in the opinion business controversy tends to happen frequently. 

While we expect nothing less in the General Election, we won’t be shying away from it. From the US Senate and House races across the state to the Governor’s race featuring a Republican incumbent and a Democratic opponent who is himself a former Republican governor of the state, it’s only getting started. 

Races for School Board, the County Commission and one judgeship in particular are drawing scrutiny and controversy. I’m still considering which races we’ll invite candidates onto the show to discuss. We’ll announce those in another column. 

There are also three constitutional amendments and several county and city ballot initiatives to consider. These can be complicated and change how these governments operate, yet they are an all too often ignored part of our election process. We’ll try to simplify that for Brevard voters. Eastern Florida State political science professor Chris Muro will help us break those down. 

It’s said fools rush in where angels fear to tread. We have no fear and we’ll be neck deep in it all. The Space Coast expects no less from its top station for adults 35+. 

Call us fools if you like…but we do have some fun along the way!

Speaking of things political, I could not believe what Charlie Crist did in his campaign. It was very smart of the DeSantis campaign to lay it out. 

Here’s a recap.

Jesus Crist- a Life of Brian Moment

Prime Time Charlie Crist has had his “Life of Brian” moment. And may it ever live to haunt his gubernatorial run!

Prime Time was speaking at a campaign event in March. As Crist vilified Governor Ron DeSantis, he deified himself, and don’t think it wasn’t intentional.

Speaking to supporters Crist asked, “You know some people call him DeSatin? Have you heard that? DeSatin versus that,” pointing to a sign with “CRIST” in bold letters.

A supporter yells out, “Christ!” and Prime Time was all over it!

The governor is the devil and Prime Time Charlie is Jesus! No, Charlie Crist is the political “Life of Brian” and there are no two ways about it.

He’s trying to resurrect a dead term as governor and it was brilliant of the DeSantis campaign to point this out!

There is evil in this campaign, but it’s not Ron DeSantis.

Like I said, election season can be contentious, but we are not afraid to have a little fun with it. Apparently, neither are the candidates.
