He sounds like any other politician to me. What is weird though he sounds like he wants to go back to the time in history when people that look like him were not doing too well. Incidentally, were the hell was he 8 years ago?
What does where he was 8 years ago have to do with where he is today?
One thing to keep in mind, no one has this race leaning Rep or even a toss up. Larry Sabato has this as lean Democratic, Congressional Quarterly, Rothenberg and the Cook Political Report all have it as likely Democratic/ Democrat Favored.

8 years ago he was serving his country in Iraq as commander of the 2d Battalion, 20th Field Artillery Regiment.
Allen West is the real deal, something that Barry can only dream about.
His comment about he would walk thru hell holding a can of gasoline for his men. Shows the mans honor. He has proven he puts the life of the men under him over his own. He is a man of his word and that you've got to respect.
I've met him a couple times he is very friendly. He came early to the events. I've seen him at. He'll talk to everyone that wants to speak with him as long as it takes
He told a crowd of tea partiers his mom was a life time member of the NAACP,the tea partys most hated enemy. He will go down in flames just like all those judas blacks in the tea party.
What constitutes a Judas Black?
1 That thinks Jessie Jackson and Sharpton are frauds?
1 That doesn't feel entitled?
Was Colin Powell a Judas?
Its not about the republican party its about the tea party. Formed to destroy President Obama and the idea of him at all cost.
Links please. I thought they were formed because some folks are tired of a government that no longer represents the needs of the people who elected them to do a job. I thought it was about holding elected officals accountable for not doing what they said they would do.
Is Obama in that catagory? If so the blame rests with his party.
The voters spoke and fired a good many republican encumbants. We need to do the same accross the board.

Nita
Its quite simple, many of todays black politicians are getting more airtime primarily Republicans in order to get more minoriteis i.e blacks into their party. 8 years ago the republican party gave a rats azz if the blacks latinos ect ever wanted join. With the emergence of Obama and the support that he has gotten from the black/latino community the republicans feel that they should have a few "faces or color" in their corner. They did the same thing when they wanted more women to vote for them when they tried to counter Hillary Clinton with an air headed Palin.

Colin Powell was a TRUE republican and would have gotten the support of many level headed blacks until the Bush administration ruined his reputation with that war crap
One other thing I don't think that C. Powell would have been part of the tea party anyway
