Stop making this a referendum on whether to vote for Hogan or vote against Hogan. Show us that Brown is more than a big ball of hot air.

why?  That is eaxtly what this is....

Personally, I look at candidates based on whether their philosophies/platform are simimlar to mine...in that Alvin beast Hogan hands down.

Keep in mind that someone with little experience can surround himself with those who have more.

If Alvin is such a non-entity as some claim, it is bound to be a referendum on Hogan.  Besides, if anyone wants to know more about Brown, they can learn more in the upcoming series of debates.  Oh, I forgot.  Hogan won't agree to more televised debates.  Exactly what is Hogan hiding if he is the new Messiah for Jax?

I am sure Alvin will hammer Hogan as the GOB insider who will be the same old same old in the debates.

Maybe Mr Hogan is using the same things that got Mr Scott elected? Say nothing, participate in no Forums or debates and just talk about how things will change when he assumes the post? Still looking for Mr Scott's pledge regarding "Jobs" to take place..............nothing so far that I have seen! I did not vote for Mr Scott but am trying to keep an open mind on what he is trying to do, time will tell.

Quotelook into what happened to the budget of the tax collectors office under Hogan's watch and get back to me

TUFSU - Why not get off your duff and get some facts together on what Brown has done locally. Right or wrong in your mind, Hogan has more local experience. Show me I am wrong, dig up the facts on Brown and how he has, again, either right or wrong, affected citizens of Jacksonville.

Stop making this a referendum on whether to vote for Hogan or vote against Hogan. Show us that Brown is more than a big ball of hot air.

Equally ...why don't you spell out YOUR list of Hogan and what he has done. :).  You throw every bit as much hot air around as you claim Alvin Brown does.  So .. We're listening  M........ You have the floor !

Speaking as one of those native born Floridians, get lost

Can't, the state needs people like me to bring Florida into the 21st century. I don't mean to offend everyone here, just those who support the status Que. If you're well rounded, that comment wasn't directed toward you. 

I apologize to anyone I may've offended.

I don't take offense.  I know what you intended to say.  I just think that this election has a lot of us with thin skins and walking on eggshells.  Pardon the mixed metaphors!

This is the last place I want to make enemies. This is the only place of like minded people here in JAX. But I will try to be more constructive with my comments and insults.

I liked Alvin's answers better but I would not say he "hammered" Hogan at Tiger Bay today.  The amount of downtown questions surprised me.

Apparently you did not read the debate? Hogan said he sent his budget to the mayor, shaved 1.5 million off his budget for next year for his part. What has Brown done lately at JU?
