For those who doubt my conviction towards this cause, here is but a taste of what I've had to endure in this race. Through out it all, I've received many emails from both hostile democrats and republicans. Depending on whom the email was from I've been called either a racist or a fascists. In the end, I hoped to garner the respect and support from our little island of sanity. I've never tried to benefit from these emails, by posting them, because I simply dismissed them as the ramblings of the far left extremists or RINO's.

Now, you get a taste of what I've had to endure coming from Charlie Justice's very own campaign manager (Mitch Kate). I received this email a few days ago, but again disregarded it. Somehow it got into the hands of the press and has made the news. Please know that I've always held this movement and its principles in the highest of regards, but hopefully now you all see what my family and I have been up against while we've fought for "WE THE PEOPLE". I don't want anyone's pity or last minute support. I simply want to make you aware of how dirty this race would have been the day after I qualified!!!

Only TOGETHER can we fight the well established machines that run both sides of the political spectrum. Only when WE THE PEOPLE gather behind like minded candidates in financial and volunteer support will WE THE PEOPLE hold the power to affect real change.

Here is the TampaBay.com story with the email sent to me fully included.

Eric. You have fought the valiant fight with honor and courage. The reason that we are in the mess that we are in is that our modern political system is controlled by small-minded men who think only of themselves and do not put their country first. It is all about power for them. It is like a drug. They become addicted and then feel like they are entitled to the job. Anyone that tries to "depose them" is savaged by the worst ad hominum attacks imaginable where there are no limits...

Just look at what Charlie Christ is doing: 'If I can't win this race, this way, then I'll try another one another way, I'll change parties, I'll change races, but one way or another, no matter what, by God I have the right to be elected to something. After all, I don't know how to do anything else...'

Well, I think you get the point.

But take heart. Know that you tried to do something good, and that you stood up to the machine.

There is no question that we need a third party. Getting there will be the challenge.
