In Florida, in a district that voted for President Obama... Twice. looks like they're having a Jolly time in Florida.

ermmmmmmmmm it was a republican house that only "changed " last year...and suddenly...this is all over for the dems? LMFAO While Republicans held the congressional seat for four decades until Young’s death last year, the district’s voters favored Obama in the 2008 and 2012 presidential elections. The district is 37 percent Republican, 35 percent Democrat and 24 percent independent.

The Republican only won by less then 3% of the vote. So it was a pretty close race. Now the Republican has to show he can 'bring home the bacon' for his area or face off against a well polished Democrat the next time around. Kind of like Scott Brown from Massachusetts. He knew he would get pummeled in an open election. An so too with this Republican....

quote: Why Democrats lost in FL-13 Their voters didn’t show up: For Democrats, losing FL-13 wasn’t necessarily bad. What was bad is how they lost it: Their voters didn’t show up. Turnout last night was 183,634. However, in the 2012 general election -- when Obama narrowly carried the district -- turnout was nearly double at 329,347. And even in the 2010 election, turnout in that district was 266,934. Last night, we heard a lot of spin from Democrats that the electorate was GOP-leaning. But here’s a lesson for Democrats: You’re going to have a GOP-leaning electorate when your voters don’t show up. Of course, it’s also not unfair to point the finger at the Democratic candidate, Alex Sink, who has now lost to a businessman whose firm admitted to multiple counts of Medicare fraud (Rick Scott) and a lobbyist (David Jolly). The biggest criticism we heard from Democrats is how risk-averse a race Sink tried to run. And that’s a lesson for the Kay Hagans and Mary Landrieus running in 2014: You can’t be risk-averse. One other thing for Democrats: Any talk about being able to net the 17 seats needed to win back the House should be pretty much over. FL-13 was EXACTLY the kind of seat Democrats needed to get to 17. NBC News Sounds kinda like how Romney lost in 12, dontcha think?

Nope, he lost because he was purely a card-carrying useless dipshit.

Nope he is the dumbass that was chastised for calling Russia a geopolitical problem, which is laughable. I think that is shit in Romneys magic diapers.

Perhaps you can tell us how Russia is a 'problem' geopolitically that anyone in the world ain't or that stands them out from any other nation on earth. What is the 'problem' 'geopolitically' exactly? Are they not situated on the earth, is their economy such that they dont use money? Do they not exist next to other nations; that is, are they a heavenly body? Do you know what geopolitics means? How about problem, know what that means? Do you know what would be necessary and sufficient conditions for there to be a geopolitical problem? Then, when you get done with understanding the terms, explain how they are 'our number one geopolitical foe', what is what the nutsacker magic underpants romney actually said in full drool. Explain it in terms of geopolitics, please (softly, what with China right next door, and the Middle East just to their south) dont want to wake them boys up. Israel has a number one geopolitical foe. You can do the math. (hint: The entire middle east and north africa).

Alex Sink is female. So much for a well informed opinion. And its not like this isn't a fairly high profile democrat. Ran for governor. Wife of Bill McBride, 2002 candidate for governor. Active in DNC powerpolitics etc etc.

Honestly, you should really try to be well informed on these things....

It was as pretty a district as the dimocrats will find this election cycle - with a democrat leaning electorate, in a disctrict obama carried in both the last elections. With Alex Sink out-raising her opponent 3-1, and with much better name recognition - in fact the best known democrat in the state, with the possible exception of charlie crist. And with a libertarian 3rd party candidate sponsored by the dimocrats that siphoned off 5% of the vote. And Sink STILL lost by 3%. Spin all you like but this was a disaster for the dims

Lol, keep drinking the cool aid and watching fox news, they'll keep telling you the world is on your side no matter how much history says to the contrary ;)

Don't own a TV. Do subscribe to several dimocrat email broadcasts, including Sierra Club, Harry Reid's, Nancy Pelosi's. Nice to see the drivel first hand. Notice you don't dispute the facts, tho. Jolly - a flawed candidate (lobbyist) won. Sink outraised Jolly 3:1. District trends Democrat. Libertarian candidate siphoned off 5% of the vote. Sink Lost. More importantly, trends are for pubs to pick up the seats necessary to take the Senate. Who's drinking the coolaid? Lets see, recent polls are that when asked to pick a strong leader, Putin or obama the results were 87%... Putin. And the democrats disastrous foreign policy is quite likely to take another huge hit Monday if (when?) Russian crosses the Ukrainian border despite stiff.. (stiff I say!!) consequences. You better listen to me. Those consequences will be.. Stiff. We're going to not send the presidential delegation to the para olympics! Ooh.. that showed him Obama!

Entertaining for a bit but that usually comes when they get their hands slapped.
