One Democratic and three Republican seats are in play. Tim Mahoney's seat is being targeted by Republicans. The Cook Report labels Mahoney's district as leaning Democrat.
Republicans Ric Keller, Vern Buchanan and Tom Feeney seats are in play. Feeney and Buchanan are facing difficult re-election campaigns. Feeney is being investigated by the FBI and has ties to disgraced lobbyist Jack Abramoff. He has formed a defense trust for potential legal bills stemming form the FBI investigation. Several high-profile government officials have been convicted from their involvement with Abramoff. Former Congressman Bob Ney being the most notable.
Buchanan won a controversal election against Christine Jennings. His seat is targeted by Democrats and Jennings has announced she will run against Buchanan in 2008. She has large grassroots support from election reform and netroots activists. The voting machine problems from the previos race played a role in Florida switching back to paper ballots. The Buchanan/Jennings race will be one of the most-watched races in 2008.
Democrat Suzanne Kosmas has allowed her name to be used in a poll to see her viablity as a possible Feeney opponent.
People can help Tim Mahoney by giving a campaign contribution.
This this the same Christine Jennings that accused Vern of not paying taxes and did the same thing!!!! It was just in the papers recently in case you missed it sir. She's a sore loser a needs to move on.
ReplyDeleteHer campaign found those errors internally. From a defunct campaign.
ReplyDeleteHardly apples and apples, anonymous
Jennings is a hypocrit... I am a fiscal responsible candidate...I read the article today...She did find it internally...But...She also found the mistake years ago, covered it up, and still hit Jane Schnider on her not paying taxes...Porbably even used the taxes to do this...She pointed out Vern's biz deals, well he has about 3,000 employees but is responsible? How many worked for her campaign 5?
