Grayson is a freak of nature.

Please, if you do not know the man, (Dan Webster) as you admit you do not, please do not comment on him.

Dan Finelli is a great but zero name recognition.

Dan Webster has been carrying the COnservative banner in Central Florida for 20 years. That’s why Jeb, Gov. Mike and Rich Crotty endorsed him. He has great name recognition. He will win and send Grayson packing.

I have been Dan Webster’s constituent. I have been in his office in Winter Garden AND in Tallahassee. All I can say is this: I don’t like him. Period.

Have you noticed that the guys who step up on their own, who are conservative, seem to have been systematically preempted by those that seem to feel that they are better king makers than the rest of us?

Huckabee, Bush, Gingrich, Romney, Santorum.

Out with the old, begone!

“Ha! I was on his team for a couple of years - the guy can mash!”

Please share what you mean. I noticed you are from Alabama. Did you used to live here in Florida and were on Websters “team for a couple of years”? I don't know what you mean. Thanks for enlightening me! :)

My brains are gonna blow.

sNewt Getrich was just on Hannity mentioning Tim Burns as the candidate for Jack Murtha’s district.

Hannity just accepts what he says, no question about Bill Russell.

EARTH to Sean!

Notice that the Rinos Gingrich, Santorum and Gleason are supporting the same guy that was picked by the GOP chair, much like the guy that picked Scuzzafazza AND who was IN BUSINESS w Jack Murtha.

GRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

“Please, if you do not know the man, (Dan Webster) as you admit you do not, please do not comment on him.”

I did not admit I did not know him. I do not know Dan Webster personally but I certainly do know OF him, as I do of others on the political scene. So if I do not know him personally I am not supposed to comment on him?

“Dan Finelli is a great but zero name recognition.”

Yes, and Allen West is great and used to also have “zero name recognition”. I also remember not too long ago when Scott Brown had “zero name recognition” too.

“Dan Webster has been carrying the Conservative banner in Central Florida for 20 years. That’s why Jeb, Gov. Mike and Rich Crotty endorsed him. He has great name recognition. He will win and send Grayson packing.”

Perhaps since Dan Webster has been “carrying the Conservative banner in Central Florida” for at least 30 years, it is now the time for new blood to enter Congress. The immediate endorsements from Mike Huckabee, Jeb Bush and Mayor Crotty of Orange County may be impressive to many, but it certainly shows me they endorse folks who also endorsed them in the past.
Guess we will see whom the voters of District 8 endorse on August 24th!

As I said before, it will be the voters in District 8 who will make the final decision on August 24th. I hope the voters will have the opportunity to check out all the candidates and attend forums to see them in action answering their questions. Whomever the voters elect to face Grayson in November will certainly get my support.

Yes, I noticed, friend!

We must remember that the RNC elite believe we are stupid and will faithfully elect the old blood over and over again. Not this time! We are on our feet not the couch, and vetting primary candidates far and wide. We WILL select the best REAL conservatives to support in the primaries and elect them to run against the Progresive/Sociallist DEMS in November!

May I suggest a possible substitution for your tagline, Jean?

Thanks for the information! Rick Scott is most certainly worth giving a serious look!

‘I’ve known Webster for 35 years — before he ever entered politics. You can’t do better for Orlando.’

How about Ocala?

‘Interesting, and interesting name. Wonder is there is lineage there?’’

He is a direct descendant. An election against Grayson would truly be 'The Devil vs. Daniel Webster''

Sorry - been out of the state for a while: don't know the boundaries of the district... bottom line is that I'd be pleased to recommend him for just about any government leadership job.... anywhere.

The PA race is complicated. Burns is the only Republican running in the special election. Russell is running against him in the primary for the full term.

Awesome! Grayson, in a world where reality exists, is insane, and has no business in Congress. Of course that is true of a lot of the congresscritters.

I will give him an honest look but it feels like something is wrong here. Maybe he was convinced to get in because there was nothing happening with the 15 other candidates. A Bush backing does not seem helpful to me. We are in need of Constitutional - States Rights Conservatives to preserve our nation as the founders gave it to us. It will be a long way back. Webster seems like more of a party guy than a revolutionary- and that is what we need in the likeness of Jefferson. It is scary to hear a politician at this point complain about congress being to partisan. We need someone to say NO! Decorum, crossing the isle, civility has destroyed this once great nation. Where is David Crockett?

Exactly. I am sure Dan Webster is a nice man. He has been a pretty good Conservative.....but like you said a “party guy”.

We need new blood, and true Constitutional Conservatives who will stand up to the Socialist/Progressive DEMS and give them NOTHING to choose but actions that follow our Constitution and are right for America. As a Freeper friend said, “no reachy across the isle thingy!”

Of course Yankee transplants were voting GOP in the South long before the dixiecrat voters finally switched.

The dixiecrat panhandle voted for Adali Stevenson and Kennedy, they both lost Florida.
