I had been hoping that Adam Hasner would run in this district. His name had been mentioned, but I’ve read nothing recently.
I wanted Hasner to run there as well, since he could raise the money to be competitive with Murphy and likely would beat him in November. The choices in the district are underwhelming, a mix of interesting candidates with no money and has-beens with some money. Murphy is the only Democrat in FL holding a seat carried by Romney, and we have a chance to wipe out all Democrats in Romney districts nationwide this November (we’re already assured of picking up UT-04 and NC-07 due to retirements from Matheson and McIntyre). I’m going to be really pissed if we blow this race.
