The establishment is fighting back, alright.
This has not received a lot of national attention, but the Republican legislature in Florida is about to push through a plan which puts Allen West at serious risk, and the person leading the effort is one of Mitt Romney’s spokemen. As reported by The Shark Tank:
After last night’s [Jan. 26] Republican Presidential debate, the candidates’ respective spinmeisters made their cases to the media as to why their guy won the debate. One of Governor Mitt Romney’s spokesmen was Florida Representative Will Weatherford, and during the course of his remarks in the “Spin Room”, he shed a very dim light on the ongoing redistricting process in the Florida Legislature….
West’s congressional district inexplicably sheds the most out support as compared to all other incumbent Republican and Democrat Congressman. A few weeks back we quoted an unnamed legislator saying that, “Allen West was screwed”, a statement which was originally made about made five months before the purposed maps were made public, leading insiders to believe that the fix was in against Allen West. But in light of Weatherford’s comment, it is increasingly clear that this is a fait accompli.
According to Weatherford, those preliminary maps will not change- at the most, any additional changes would be minimal, and those changes would not make any appreciable difference from the preliminary maps. In addition, Weatherford stated that a deal was struck between him, Senate President Mike Haridopolos, and Senator Don Gaetz to finalize these maps and push them through as soon as possible.
Weatherford tried to hide behind a need to comply with [state and] federal law, but that’s obviously a dodge since there could have been many ways to comply yet not sacrifice West:
A website, SaveAllenWest, had been set up, but it appears to be too late.
One of the rising stars of the Tea Party is about to be sacrificed by the Republican establishment in Florida, led by someone spinning for Mitt Romney.
Don’t say you weren’t warned.

I am with you but if he did the left and mais stream media would unleash such a major attack on him like they did Cain it would not be funny.
Maybe he would threaten to blow their "packages" off, too, and good for him! I was going to say, "b@11$," but the lefties, especially those in "the media", either have very small ones or none at all.

I say we do a nationwide draft and get Col. West to run for President...getting around they florida GOP kicking him to the curb, HuffPo has an article about a Lib SuperPAC to get rid of all ten Tea Party congressmen who were just elected. Maybe the FLGOP is part of that PAC...just a thought...

Maybe good, maybe not so good??
Permalink Reply by Twana Blevins on January 30, 2012 at 4:34pm Harry I'm personally not for an open convention, an article 5 or any other opening of anything right now. Those in gov. seats now don't play by the rules of our founding documents - which tells me they are just drooling, ready to over step their bounds and waiting for us to give them this type of a present. I know the arguments our side uses however, I also know how conniving our enemies are. I also note.....conniving is our enemies lifestyle......it is not ours.....they destroy our founding documents with their conniving....and sometimes we give them the tools to do it.

Permalink Reply by Bob Russell on January 30, 2012 at 10:56am Roomney and the republicrat NWO globalist cabal are not going to allow any conservative to become entrenched in Washington. Look what they did to Herman Cain, and it isn't about race, it is about conservatism. I do wish jesse jackasson
and Al Sharpie would come out and scream "racism" about these 2 cases but they won't. Why??? A liberal is a liberal first. It was the liberals, both black and white, who excoriated Cain over innuendos and rumors. They didn't jump and yell aobut opponents being "racist" yet Jan Brewer is "a racist" because she pointed her finger at messiah mullah osama bin obama. This is a war against Satan and his minions. Demoncrats and Republicrats are Satan's agents in this nation and must be defeated by conservatives.
This effort is focused on sacrifice to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies foreign and domestic.

Prime Minister David Cameron had initially discouraged the interpreters from settling in Britain, saying “talented Afghans” should stay and rebuild their country.
But many of the interpreters say their lives are in danger from the Taliban due to their work with British forces in the restive southern Helmand [...]
