Candidate quits after his story questioned
Land O'Lakes Republican Jim King is dropping his campaign to unseat U.S. Rep. Ginny Brown Waite, a Brooksville Republican. His trouble? Not the back injury that King once cited.
A Times investigation showed he made false claims about his professional background and the time he spent with the military in 2001 in Afghanistan, reports staff writer John Frank.
-- David DeCamp/Times staff writer


He sounds like all the other Repugs...
A lying, cheating, fool who cares only for himself and who he can step on to get more for him!

Just another liberal democrat who switched parties hoping for a job that lied. Is it a wonder that the dummycrat led Congress has a ( percent approval rating. How sad for a bunch of do nothing liberal democrat party.

I met him at an Hispanic event and he said that he was a veteran...not true.
He also said that he was Hispanic (?) and rambled some words in Spanish. In addition, he would not stop ragging on Ginny! It was quite disturbing and that was when I departed.
