"MIAMI (Reuters) - Tea
Party-backed Republican U.S. Representative Allen West said he was
still not ready to concede defeat on Sunday, almost two weeks after the November
6 election, when the clock ran out on a partial recount in South Florida.
Results showing West trailing Democratic challenger Patrick
Murphy by 1,900 votes were expected to be turned over to the state
Division of Elections to be ratified on Tuesday.
West was granted a recount of early ballots
in St. Lucie County
during the weekend, but officials were unable to complete the process before
time ran out at midday on Sunday.
"Today at noon, it became clear Patrick Murphy will be
officially certified as the next congressman from the 18th Congressional
District," said Murphy's campaign manager, Anthony Kusich. "It is beyond time to put
this campaign behind us."
Under Florida law in the event of an
incomplete recount the original returns are automatically submitted for
certification. St. Lucie County officials went ahead and completed the recount
later on Sunday, extending Murphy's lead to 2,100 votes.
"This election is far from over," West's
campaign manager, Tim Edson, said in a statement that called the results "highly
suspect."
"We will continue to fight on behalf of all
voters in District 18 to ensure a fair and accurate count of their votes," he
added, without saying how the campaign planned to challenge the result. [Source]
I guess there is still hope for the American people. If the people of Florida's 18th Congressional District had sent this man back to Washington I would be seriously worried.
This defeat is hard for Allen West to accept because he made the wrong calculation about selling out. Like Artur Davis and others, he thought that being a sell out would guarantee him a place in Washington as long as he wanted it. Fortunately the people (black and white) who vote in his district were able to see him for what he really is: A charlatan who made outrageous statements to appeal to a far right group of people who are out of touch with the rest of the country. The GOP outspent Patrick Murphy 17-1 and their boy still lost.That ought to tell you something about Allen West.
Still, the GOP infighting continues; tea party types like Mr. West on one side, and the GOP establishment on the other.
"...conservative columnist Michael Barone told an audience at Hillsdale College's center in Washington that the tea party, while bringing some talented politicians to the fore, also brought some "wackos and weirdos and witches." [Source]
He forgot to mention jiggers.
*Pic from hinterlandgazette
Yeah. Hillsdale College is an elite institution for the children of the Republican old guard. They don't like the tea party and never have because Hillsdale people are the establishment, not the revolutionaries. So that quote is not a shock and not really a new development.
ReplyDeleteWell Field this Bama will have to go and get a job now and become part of the 99%. Or, Fox News will hook him up with a coon commentary spot as the 'Black' expert.
ReplyDeleteBrother Field....."the agony of defeat"-just going is soo hard to do. A bother like Mr. West must have experianced much abuse from his people as a youth to have so much "payback" insults to his own people. This guy must have had orders to act in such a nasty way to people who looks like him. He is from the fresh off the plantation period....past civil rights movement era. Since the election, my neighbors have been rather cool/cold towards me. I did have a Romney placard in the yard......maybe they thought I was being cute.
ReplyDeleteField, he will not stop jigging just because his big block head got thrown out of office. Look for him to put on some more cork paint and show up as a guest coon err I mean commentator on Fixed Noise in 3...2...1...
ReplyDeleteNo commentary on the beatdown the 'Skins put on the Pigeons this afternoon? Too bad.
ReplyDeleteMr Field, for you to use the N-word as the last word of your post about Mr Allen West is unbecoming and it proves you ARE a racist just like some of your FN followers like PC and PilotX.
ReplyDeleteAllen West deserves to be in Congress. He is the best Rep that has ever been sent to Congress. What kind of bm are you that you speak against a great man like Allen West?
If it were not for Rep West, there would have been no action in the House. It was West alone who gave the House its personality and special brand of politics...the likes of never been seen before.
When Allen lost, I cried. I could not believe he lost. Mitt lost.... Allen lost....
ReplyDeleteThis is hard to believe that satanic Dems won over the GOP angels..
Revelations prophesied that this would happen near the end of the world. Lord have mercy. Where is Granny? Why hasn't she repented about selling her soul to the devil?
That story right there makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. Asante Sana
ReplyDelete"He forgot to mention jiggers."
ReplyDeleteLOL! Usted es temible!!! :))))))
The Republicans in Georgia made him an offer to run in that state.
ReplyDeleteIt's just a district and by now more voters have witnessed what a wienie West is.
ReplyDeleteWhy don't they both ask for a new vote?
Put all doubt to rest with something more confirming.
It'll be a lot wider than 1900 votes the 2nd time around. ;-)
Ernesto, I suspect that they are working on the contract right now.
ReplyDelete"No commentary on the beatdown the 'Skins put on the Pigeons this afternoon?"
We will be back. Unfortunately for you, the Deadskins will not.:(
CTFU @Wesley R " a coon commentary spot as the 'Black' expert." Yes i think Mr. West will continue jiggin' somewhere. Good thing he lost his election and recount. Yasssssss!!!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah can't have a Black man standing tall and proud WITHOUT being a permanent victim and paying tribute to his slavemassa's who gives him everything - White Democrats.
ReplyDeleteHe was a scary dude to you wasn't he? One who made it without kissing anyones ass or selling their soul and wasnt' afraid to tell the truth.
But that's just it; he has to toe the line. You might be wrong, it might be killing you, but it's your line.
i pray that a very belated impeachment stops that jigging bankster hnic hobama asap too!!!

PC, "That's TPC to you, mister."
ReplyDeletewhat the hell are you talking about Negro? Learn to speak English. You DO live in the UK, don't you? It seems to me that you AT LEAST should be able to communicate in ebonics UK English.
Lots of people in these so-called "leadership" positions need themselves, to be led to the nearest mental institution, quick, fast and in a damn hurry. Jim Jones was a leader in 1978. How'd that turn out??
ReplyDeleteAll everybody's doing is living until they die. No one's really all that important other than in their own damn minds.

WOW. So now you have Hispanics calling Black Men Coons and you are allright with that because he was a strong independent man, not one who followed the herd and made sure to say whatever was good for the welfare nation, no he spoke the truth. A Man who threatens the very essence of the democratic mantra and highlights the parties failures. Can't have a Black man really lead without bowing to the White Limousine liberal masters can ya now.
You forgot to mention the other variables surrounding Black Leftists involved in this situation:
Gertrude Walker, the 32-year-veteran election supervisor of St. Lucie County, who has spent much of the last two weeks explaining why her office completely botched the count. She admitted that her office had acted in “haste” in issuing election results, and that “mistakes were made.” Among her mistakes was failing to count 40 of the 94 precincts under her jurisdiction on Election Night — and then counting the other 54 twice. Indeed. On Friday, her office announced it had “discovered” 304 additional early votes left in a box. None had been counted.
But Walker wasn’t available for comment. She has been hospitalized for unknown reasons.
And this wasn't her first, second or third time charged with incompetence and fraud..but we know how that goes.
So now she is pulling a Jesse Jackson. Another torch for Black Leftism. Crazy thief - still voted in unanimously without ever even campaigning and his constituency knowing he was in a nuthouse for months AFTER stealing campaign funds and trying to buy Obamas senate seat. He agreed to a plea deal but not without some form of welfare for life - he wants permanent disability so his being a low down scumbag is paid for for life by taxpayers.
And you like people like this over Allen West?
Back to West and voter fraud in Florida:
The news was one reason that Florida’s secretary of state has dispatched a team of experts to audit St. Lucie’s procedures. The St. Lucie Election Canvassing Board voted to approve a complete recount of all the early ballots. It began the recount on Saturday but stopped it at 8 p.m. because the county building’s security system was set to be switched on later that night. Some people complained that the alarms have been switched off in the past to allow county business to continue after hours, but their complaints were ignored. The recount resumed on Sunday morning, but it missed the noon deadline to submit the county’s final returns to Florida’s secretary of state.
So, on Sunday, the previous results—the ones showing Democrat Murphy ahead—were sent to Florida’s secretary of state for certification.
We know this is just the tip of the iceberg now don't we.

You don' have to call me Mister, Sir will do or in a pinch Massa, but I aint gonna feed you no matter what you call me. Once you feed them they always expect more.
What's the TPC stand for. Thorazine Paltering Cabin Boy?
Glad to see you haven't offed yourself yet. We always need entertainment and there is nothing like watching the troglodyte in his cage scamper to and fro hunting for a bit of rhyme, not understanding his inability to reason nor realizing that at this point it's over and will never happen.
It's ok to call then Tribe so I guess it's cool to call him Cow.
ReplyDeleteNo West isn't scary to anyone. Just an embarrassment.
ReplyDeletemore proof that david duke never lied about hobama!

wwiii looms!!!
what a bloody evil drone loving global warlord hypocrite hoax hobama is!!!!
shame on the sheeple!!!!
kudos to richard silverstein!!!!!
Obama says he’s opposed to an Israeli invasion not because many Gazans will be killed (he clearly doesn’t care about that) but because Israelis will die. Have you ever heard anything so callous? Yes, I suppose in all the history of this conflict there have been far more callous statements. But by a U.S. president? Not so many.
Barack Obama: go to Hell. You don’t give a damn. You don’t have a moral bone in your body. Give back that Nobel Peace Prize. You don’t deserve it. In fact, you’ve pissed on it and turned it from gold to (cast) lead.
When you read the following you will understand my outrage directed against Barack Obama. Today should be the Kfar Kana or the al-Samouni moment in this war. The former was the tragedy during the 2006 war when Israel attacked a Lebanese village near a UN base killing scores of civilians. After that atrocity, the war was essentially over though Israel didn’t realize it at the time. My fear is that the murder of 12 Gaza civilians in a bombing that flattened a 3-story apartment building filled with civilians will not be enough of a tragedy to end this growing madness. More of the innocent may have to die before the world tells Israel: Dayenu!
At what point does Barack Obama become moved enough, or boxed in enough by this suffering that he’s finally got to get off his ass and do something?
By the way, Israeli polls find that while 90% of Israelis support the Gaza war (only 16% support a ceasefire), only 46% support an invasion while 32% are opposed. That’s a sizable minority viewpoint.

The difference between white Democrats and white Republiklans is that the first are a part of the non-majority multi-racial coalition that this country is rapidly becoming, and the latter are a white monolith (with a dash of window dressing) that we've never, in truth, been. Of course white Democrats are far from paragons of virtue on racial injustice, but, at least, unlike white Republiklans, we admit that it exists.
ReplyDeleteI was just wondering about Alicia Banks. Has she disappeared after Obama's reelection?
ReplyDeleteThe last time I came to this site she was ranting about how a Romney win would be good for black people in America??!! Because of her (and the white racists) I stopped visiting the site. If she's gone I say good riddance unless and until she drops her Obama hatred.
