Title: Alan Grayson re-elected to the House
Post by: Straw Man on November 07, 2012, 09:29:20 AM

I'm glad to see this guy back in The House


Former Rep. Alan Grayson, a Democrat, won his House race in Florida on Tuesday night over his Republican challenger Todd Long. Grayson was first elected in 2008, but lost in the Tea Party wave of 2010.

He noted Tuesday night to HuffPost that his turnaround is the biggest on record in the history of House. No other candidate had lost by 18 points in one year, only to turn around and win the next cycle by 25 -- a 43-point swing.

fat lady has sang for the Tea Party.   Sensible conservatism is the answer.
