Dirty Harry not running for Senate - or any office in 2012

Florida Senate President Mike Haridopolos released a video today declaring that he has dropped out of the Republican senate primary concluding his position is in conflict with the campaign.



Video translation:

I have made a choice to improve the lives of others in the classroom and in public service - and have I proven that? No.

See, I don't intend to help socialist commie hippies like you - or other Floridians. I help people like my friends. Friends who paid for this video.

And along the way I was inspired by people that like to help their friends too - like Ronald Reagan and Jeb Bush.

People who believed enough in us, to allow us to fend for ourselves. They gave everything they had of themselves - to help each other.

Last year I was elected president of the Florida senate by my friends. And what I have done to help them is pretty remarkable; passing initiatives to cut thousands of jobs, moving medicaid to private for-profit companies and stifling education so students can't spell 'excellence.'
