When you've lost Donna Shalala, I'm gonna say you may have jumped the shark.
I haven't been down to the Miami area in the last few years, but in my experience there's a huge amount of support for the Venezuelan (and of course Cuban) population down there. She's probably just sucking up.
Some days I really think we need to open up the flood gates to Venezuelan/Cuban refugees, at least enough to offset the aholes from NYC, and turn FL solid red.
