Meek, a four-term congressman, has announced a 10 a.m. EST press conference in Miami, where Democratic sources with knowledge of his plans said he is set to announce he is entering the race."
Meek is a "New Democrat" (bad bad bad) and would have virtually no chance to win in a general election...but anyone is better than F. Allen Boyd or Debbie Wasserman Schultz (besides a puke of course)
