Florida goes West, Michigan makes a Doctor's Appointment

I've been a fan of LtCol West since he ran unsuccessfully in 2008. This year the voters in FL-22 saw fit to send him to Washington. Michigan voters have seen fit to have Dr. Dan Benishek make a cross country house call to Congress. I hope he's got the right medicine in his bag. As a health care provider I hope he has pride of place as the Republicans start their attempts to modify Obamacare.

I think LtCol West's leadership skills will huge in Congress. But I don't think he'll be very popular in the Congressional Black Caucus...


LtCol Rep. West's victory speech:

Jobs for Vets...

Well, someone has to be in Congress, why not Veterans of the GWOT and first Gulf War?

Go to the Iraq Veterans for Congress, see the candidates and select at least one to support. You don't have to live in a candidate's state or district to donate.

I'm supporting LTC Allen West, FL 22 and Justin Bernier, CT 5.

And yes, I still wish LTC West would run for POTUS.

The Man Who Should Be President

I really wish LTC West would run for POTUS in 2012... but he's running for Congress in 2010. LTC West ran for the same seat in 2008 and I posted about his campaign then and I link to his campaign site again. Please consider giving what you can to help send this hero to Congress.

Here LTC West answers a fairly complicated question in a straight up manner.
