Just a few years back, Clifton Hicks was an M1 Abrams tank operator almost 7,000 miles away in Iraq. As an active Army squad member, he'd seen buildings packed with families crumbled and burned. Watched women and children bleed and die. Killed insurgents and civilians alike.

Reading yesterday's Alligator, you would have thought that the Orange and Blue Party got slaughtered. But we didn't exchange hugs of commiseration last night. We exchanged hugs of joy. We may not have won the executive positions, but we did win more Senate seats than any opposition party since the Unite Party won 13 in Spring 2006.

Tuesday's Republican primary captured Florida's importance in deciding the next U.S. president. The Republican candidates all offered different ideas to lead the party and the nation into the 21st century.
With just one more day to decide which candidates will move forward into what promises to be one of the most important presidential elections in history, we realize the task may be a little overwhelming for any voter.
