How in freaking flying hell could Allen West be on the verge of getting re-elected? Mindboggling.

Polls have West up, and up by a lot down there. What is wrong with those people? The guy is a freaking looney tune. What the hell?? Please explain that district to me.

I read he was only up one? And his district is now more conservative than his last.

But I admit I know nothing about his district. Rs do love a subservient black man, though.

I have to admit that I have no idea who this man is. Nor how it relates to me having my very own 44k post stalker. Somehow you seem to have determined that I am the love child of John McCain & Sarah Palin. It is truly bemusing, a small comfort in dark times.
