Did you read this morning's article in the Hernando Today titled "Activist insulted by county boss' sign". This story really illustrates blatant hypocrisy from the local Hernando County Republican Executive Committee Chairwoman Ana Trinque. This chairwoman has spent the last four years publicly berating Jeff Stabins and now she thinks he needs to adjust his attitude with the press. "I think Jeff needs to use the media to his advantage," said Ana Trinque in this article. Apparently she expects Mr. Stabins to manipulate the media like she has been doing with her cohorts.

Jeff Stabins has endured verbal, and written abuse, from the majority of the media located in Hernando County but still managed to get elected with a 56% majority. These negative attacks have come from WWJB and Hernando Today. There two media outlets have been fueled by Ana Trinque, the state committee people for the REC, individuals associated with Government Gone Wild, and the Hernando County Tax Payers Alliance.

Commissioner Stabins should be commended for conducting himself as a complete gentleman over the last four years. He did not stoop to the nasty, vile behavior of these people. Face it, Commissioner Stabins well placed "broom" comment made all of us laugh at these angry individuals.

Score one for Commissioner Jeff Stabins!
