Republicans backing Ric Keller's Democratic opponent for Congress?

[BushOut06]

I heard on the radio that both Bill Frederick and Glenda Hood, both prior GOP mayors of Orlando, are backing Democratic candidate Charlie Stuart over the incumbent GOP Ric Keller. I checked Stuart's website, and it confirmed it - in fact, it's splashed right across the front of the site.

I'd love to see Ric Keller tossed out on his ass, but I just hope we don't wind up with another DINO in Congress.

1. At least a DINO puts John Conyers in the Judiciary Chairmanship.

A GOOP doesn't.

2. Beat me again, dintcha, CW?

I was gonna say pretty much the same thing.

3. I live to beat you, Jack.

:silly:

Great minds and all that... (Or twisted minds as the case may be...)

Hope you're doing well, Bud! :toast: So when are we gonna get the gang together again?

4. We really oughtta get together. Maybe somewhere near the center

of the state. I'd be up for it. Maybe we could all go crash with Wagner or something.

5. Yeahhh!! Party at the Wagners'!! Par-ty! Par-ty! Par-tyyy!!

Seriously, let's talk about it. Probably post-election would be best. And e's town sounds like as good a place as any.

6. Certainly works for me.

A post-election party? Celebration or commiseration as the occasion demands, in Marshfield on the weekend following the election? I think I could do that. We should take this to the WI forum & turn t over to someone competent, like Sybylla.

9. Done.

7. Good point!

I think it's interesting to see the rats jumping ship. How bad do you have to be for your own party to desert you?

8. Many would consider Charlie Stuart a DINO

he's running as a "moderate" and I'm sure he'll vote like a moderate. Democrats will not be happy with him all of the time.

But then again, Ric Keller is NOT a RINO. He's an empty-headed, hypocritical rubber stamp of the republican leadership.

Having a rep who votes like an asshole maybe 15% of the time has got to be better than having a rep who votes like an asshole 100% of the time.
