2016? This guy will have trouble getting re-elected in his own district THIS year!
All those medals and then got investigated by the Army and quit. Hmmm.....
He straight up will not get re-elected he is in a district that went to Obama by a 56-44 margin thanks to anti-incumbent protection redistricting measures passed in Florida. He is out of there

How did he get in there in the first place? What did the district look like before?

Republicans controlled the legislature in 2000 and made a district for a Claw Shaw a former Republican representative from the area who won a fluke election in a D+9 district. They basically took all the Republicans in Broward and Palm Beach counties and put them in one highly gerrymandered district. That was about 50-50% which West won (see below for map of 2000-2010 district).
Then Florida voters passed referendums preventing the legislature from using incumbent protection as a factor in redistricting and as such there was no legal way not to make the district much more Democratic.
Maybe as one of West's idols has said...... Weat should have been brought up with the right work ethic........... he seemed pretty proud of his Dad joining the miitary to get a FREEBIE haircut......... NOT to defend America but to get a Free haircut from the State....... Pretty Socialist eh what? lol
Romney Spokesman Behind Plan to Redistrict Allen West out of Office
This has not received a lot of national attention, but the Republican legislature in Florida is about to push through a plan which puts Allen West at serious risk, and the person leading the effort is one of Mitt Romney’s spokesmen [Will Weatherford]
So by your reasoning(sic) Jefferson Davis was the antebellum Che Guevara?
and you dislike Allen west why? I know his an idiot, his crazy, because democrats are telling you, I have seen all post non saying anything about his believes. do you all agree on what he believes just dont like the guy?
Obama, Pelosi, and Reid are Americans voted in to office by Americans. Just because you do not agree with their opinions does not make you more American.
