Liberal firebrand Alan Grayson is back, returning to politics to run for his old seat in Congress against Democratic U.S. Rep. Darren Soto.
Grayson had been considering several options for his potential return to Washington, but he told the Orlando Sentinel he chose the district in Osceola, Orange and Polk counties that he represented for four years, because thats where people want me.
Our country is facing a crisis, Grayson said. President Donald Trump is trampling on our democracy. Voters deserve to have somebody fighting against that.
The decision kicks off what could be a heated District 9 battle for the Democratic nomination between Grayson, a progressive firebrand who garnered both controversy and a national profile in his six years in Congress.

So - his brag sheet consists of, “I’m a loonier left-wing whacko than the guy I want to beat...”
I don’t think I could stand seeing that lunatic again. If by some chance he gets back in, put him and Mad Maxine in a room under lock and key..............sheesh
Cue Rocky & Bullwinkle: “What, again?”
Welcome him with open arms. He is yet another perfect representative of the dem party.
All those spousal abuse allegations should play well now, in the wake of the #MeToo strife. Go for it, Alan.
Egads...yet another lunatic returning to the fray. Sheesh!
Like a bad dream. Does this mean he’ll resign from PolitFact?? And, IF Jolly runs for Gov on a “bipartisan” (ROFL!!) ticket with Murphy, will he resign from PolitiFact?
This is an absolute gift!! He will instantly be crowned the leader of the Crazy Democrats and be given a platform by the media who will KNOW he is poison but will not be able to resist his bat shit crazy comments the other Crazies will gather around and rally to. I’M LOVIN’ THIS!!
P.S. Was this the original headline:

Alan Grayson returns to seek old seat in Congress
When he did his rant a few years ago about “Republicans’ health care plan is that they want you to die quickly”, I left him a voice mail saying that on the contrary, I hope he dies very very slowly.....
