YA WANNA TALK ABOUT POLITICAL CAPITAL? ASK SCOTT MADDOX!

According to Buddy Nevins in Saturday's South Florida Sun Sentinel, the endorsement of likely Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean by Florida Democratic chair Scott Maddox has earned the possible gubernatorial candidate some big-time political capital. After all, Mattox was the first state chairperson to endorse Dr. Dean, and he moved the state's DNC representatives to endorse the former Vermont governor and presidential candidate.

Nevins considers what the possible payback could be in terms of Dean being elected, most likely needed extra ummph to Maddox's possible run for the governor's office next year. Maddox needs to start getting out and about, as he did'nt even rank in the recent Mason-Dixon poll (see post below).
