Sticks of Fire: a Tampa blog

Moving away from Tampa doesn’t necessarily mean the community leaves you. My friend Lexie, a former volunteer reporter at a local community radio station now currently earning her MFA in journalism at BU, has always been a huge Davis supporter. Below is a text message I sent her on election night to keep her updated and the resulting conversation that followed.

D: Nov. 7 10PM  Jim is out

L: Nov. 7 10.03PM  Damn. I’m at the Deval Patrick victory party. It’s all about dems winning here. How bad was it?

D: Nov. 7 10.06PM  53 to 44

L: Nov. 7 10.07PM  Ouch.

D: Nov. 7 10.15PM  He’s not conceding!

D: Nov. 7 10.28PM  In other news, britney files for the big D from KFED.

L: Nov. 8 12.56 PM  So, has Davis conceded now? And who’s going to get the kids, Britney or K Fed?

D: Nov. 8 1.02PM  I can’t find anything on it! Rummy is resigning! She wants the kids.

Thank god for CNN. It’s one stop shopping.
