Five past and present Democratic congressmen host Aronberg fundraiser
by George Bennett | February 28th, 2012
- Deutch
- Hastings
- Johnston
- Klein
- Wexler
- Aronberg
The congressional quintet and former Florida Attorney General Bob Butterworth are on the host committee for the March 15 event at the Delray Beach home of Aronberg’s parents. Democratic Palm Beach County Commissioners Burt Aaronson, Shelley Vana and Priscilla Taylor and several Democratic club presidents and municipal officials are among the co-hosts.
With an April 20 candidate qualifying deadline approaching, Aronberg is the only candidate who has opened a campaign to replace State Attorney Michael McAuliffe, who is stepping down March 16 for a private sector job. Gov. Rick Scott will appoint a replacement to fill the remainder of McAuliffe’s term, which ends in January. Scott last week said he hasn’t decided whether he wants an appointee who will also run for the job in the fall.

No one is running against Aronberg. Just appoint him so he can make the transition when McAuliffe leave. It will be easier on everyone. Plus if he sucks, then a write-in can get rid of him in general election. Consider it a test ride opportunity.

There should be no one appointed with the current office. I just wish that PBSO would investigate some of the felony attorneys. Check on thier after hours activities, they all think they are teflon, there is alot of dirty laundry to wash in that office.
