	Opinion: For the Florida House of Representatives, CHARLES DEAN, Republican State House District 43
		Russell, 49, opposed leader Johnny Byrd and other disconnected members of the Florida House by voting against a bill to raise local telephone rates, and he sponsored a bill that gives school districts the option of buying used textbooks as a way to trim expenses.

		"Florida is headed in the wrong direction," she says, clicking off a host of examples: underfunded education, special-interest tax breaks and unenforced growth management laws.
