Gov. Charlie Crist today set a Feb. 2 primary and April 6 general election for the Congressional seat being vacated by U.S. Rep. Robert Wexler, D-Boca Raton. Memo here.
Wexler surprised many last month by saying he was leaving Congress in January to join the Center for Middle East Peace and Economic Cooperation, based in Washington. He has endorsed state Sen. Ted Deutch as his replacement.

Hey Charlie, are you sure the Dems have had long enough to get behind their man?

These are the same "Democrats" whose local clubs won't even give any other primary candidates, other than Deutch, a chance to speak at the microphone. So much for being the "Democratic" Party, when it can't even practice internal democracy. Figures though, its one of the two partners in the two-party choke hold on America's political system. The other is that traveling circus called the Republican Party.
