They get what they deserve. Some people need to feel real pain before they see the light.

These are not the districts we are interested in.

Next time, take a look at the pollster ratings - a solid dem seat. There are still many of those in the House - we are interested in the lean dem, toss-ups and lean Rep.

Low turnout;

He has to run in Nov.
"freeloaders and leeches" in BOCA? Clearly you have NEVER been there. ROTFLMAO!

This area of Florida is full of NE liberal minded transplants so this is no big deal.

Unlike the Scott Brown case where we destroyed more then 40 years of a democratic controlled seat.

I can see the dems are desperate for something positive. As this is nothing but a run off to cover 6 months of another dem scam artist who did not even live in his district in Florida.
is that why scott brown is distancing himself from the teaparty and refuses to be seen with Palin in Boston?

Have to give him credit for coming up with that type of statement to describe one of the wealthiest districts in the state, and the district with one of the largest senior populations in the country....

Why couldn't the Republican make it close?................ He spouted all the right wing rhetoric?

Lynch had hoped public disdain for the health care bill and low congressional approval ratings would help him upset Deutch, widely seen as the front-runner. He sought to do what Republican Scott Brown did in Massachusetts when he won the Senate seat held for nearly a half-century by Democrat Edward M. Kennedy.

Lynch lambasted the health care overhaul as a government takeover and the gutting of Medicare, while Deutch told voters it would provide immediate relief.

Lynch had also slammed Obama's stimulus bill as doing little to help the economy and called the president's timetable to withdraw troops from Iraq "moronic."

Woo Hoo! Dang Lying Repub's... how do they sleep at night?

and thank goodness for the Democrat victory, if he had gotten defeated the Dems could just go home and never show their face, it was a lop sided Democratic district, of course he won.
