The Dem plan takes money from the people and gives it to the special interests. The GOP (Senate) plan gives the money back to the people.

Elian Relatives' Lawyer Celebrates Mayoral Victory Manny Diaz, an attorney for the U.S. relatives of young Cuban escapee Elian Gonzalez, is celebrating his election as mayor of Miami. ``We're at the dawn of a new era in Miami. Look around you, over there, everywhere throughout this campaign, this is what it was all about. One city, one future,'' Diaz told supporters after his win Tuesday night, the Miami Herald reported today. He has his work cut out for him. Though he defeated former mayor Maurice Ferre by 55 percent to 45 percent, 88 percent of blacks and 68 percent of non-Hispanic whites voted against Diaz. ``If you're not Cuban in Miami, you don't have a chance,'' fumed Ferre's campaign manager, Manny Alfonso. Bad news for Florida guv wannabe Janet Reno: Rumors linking Ferre to the former Clinton attorney general, who ordered the armed abduction of Elian for shipment back to the island prison of Fidel Castro, helped propel Diaz to victory. ``Elian was very important,'' 71-year-old voter Berta Garcia told the Herald. ``He [Diaz] did everything he could for that boy. I didn't vote for Ferre because he said he was going to support Janet Reno. He said later that he didn't say it. But I heard it.'' newsmax.com tom watson tosiwmee
