[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 826665, member: 2189"] For a freshman Congressman to be talking about something like this IMO suggests there may be data out there suggesting some trouble for re-election locally. A first termer wanting a 2nd term would seem to need to focus at home and not on such a long shot unless he knows at home he has no shot! West won in a traditionally democrat and liberal district so is his campaign may be seeing something to suggest he's a one hit wonder regardless of what he does? And there [URL='http://politic365.com/2011/03/22/in-florida-another-democrat-seeks-to-challenge-allen-west-in-2012/'][COLOR=red]are questions[/COLOR] [/URL]about what possible competition he might face for re-election. It's not about who he is or what he believes but the fact that the district is designed against him and he just hit it at the right time when he got elected. I also think Michelle Bachman is Presidental feeling around because she may be in the same boat. Bachman and West may give some that feel good moment but I do think in the general election, their chance is slim and none. I don't even think the republican party elite would let them pass primary muster. [/QUOTE]
