(27,424 posts)How does the guy lose two years ago and rebound with an almost 2 to 1 win?
Don't get me wrong - I love the guy. But how fucking fickle are these Florida voters?
Did he run in a different district?

(5,158 posts)I was so disappointed when he lost in 2010. So glad he will be back in Congress, and I have a feeling it's going to be for a lot more than just two years this time.
