And now that word got out that he was negotiating to switch to the GOP, he likely won’t survive the RAT primary either.
Thanks dontreadthis, this sez he’s a “Democrat from Jupiter”.
In swing district, Rep. Patrick Murphy has to tread carefully

If Allen West wants his seat back, he should be opposing Murphy in the GOP primary. IIRC, Murphy has a very shady background.
why is Allen West not running again? Beneath him?
*******************************
West should run against Rubio, to be a Conservative Senator!
I hope he does run for the Senate. That chump Rubs could be on the national ticket though, hope not.
I wouldn’t take McIntyre since we can and hopefully are gonna beat him. He had his chances. Or fine take him but I’d hope he’d get Parker Griffithed.
The others you name we can’t beat so yeah, Peterson’s seat will go GOP when he retires but the other seats we’d be lucky to have. Romney actually did a couple points better in Lipinski’s seat than he did in the any of the GOP seats we lost in state but I don’t know. Cuellar’s seat, no. Bishops’s as redrawn, unlikely.
Bishop has drifted further to the left but it would humiliate them to have a sitting Black member defect.
Seems like it was no sale, Bonher rejected the offer.
As for West he said in January he’s not running for the House district again.
I’d have voted for him in CT rather than that swine Lieberman.
But switching states after bombing out, that’s just a joke.
rubio will never be on any ticket that I vote for and if he is... FREEDOM PARTY! Levin and Sarah promised that if needed... they would do it. I do not know who would be on that ticket but they will not be a communist or a muslim. The gop is facing their end if they stay on the liberal course. They will lose millions of their base if they try a squish again.
” The gop is facing their end if they stay on the liberal course. They will lose millions of their base if they try a squish again.”
If they sell us out on amnesty, they are 100% DOA.
I agree 100%!
This is very interesting. Allen West already said he isn’t interested in returning to Congress. IMHO, if this happens, it’ll be similar to Parker Griffith of Alabama’s switch in 2010. It’s probably not credible enough to avoid being primaried, though if Murphy wants to switch, I wouldn’t do anything to stop him.
I would like to see Adam Hasner run here. The district went for Mitt Romney.
