Listen you dolt....the GOP-e redrew lines after the census and did their very best to make sure that West would have a really lousy district. It is weanies like you that allow that to happen. Man up and donate to this guy to show them it won’t work.

How’s that for realism???

This conspiracy theory has been floating around for a while.

The fact is it was not realistic to preserve West's old gerrymandered district under the liberal redistricting amendments passed by referendum. Adam Hasner is running as the GOP nominee for that revised district, which is winnable but leans left.

West is running in a neighboring district which contains some of his current constituents and many of Rep. Rooney's current constituents. (Rooney also moved one district over.) The new district is a swing district ~ similar to his current one. Bush won it with 51% in '04, Obama won it in '08.

My dear Hothead, perhaps you can show me how I, having not been in Florida for several years, had anything to do with West’s redistricting problems. Or said anything wrt the Colonel’s presidential prospects differing from what HE has said.

If not, your insulting comment is essentially irrelevant.

Perhaps you are unaware of the U.S. Census which takes place every 10 yrs and the fact that said Census requires districts to be re-drawn.

Given your tendency to fly off the handle I would have to doubt your analysis of that re-districting.
