Description | "The contentious 2012 Congressional race between former Congressman Allen West and Democratic Congressman Patrick Murphy turned out to be the most expensive races in the country, and one of the bloodiest.
“This a person who doesn’t want to be in front of the public, he has no ideas, he does not address any of the issues, he is the emptiest of an empty suit-I think he’s just a name on the ballot.”-Congressman Allen West (Source)
But is Patrick Murphy really the good Democrat Congressman that his Party thinks he is, or is he still struggling with his Republican background?
According to a source very close to the Republican Congressional leadership, Speaker of the House of Representatives John Boehner granted Patrick Murphy’s request to a private meeting to discuss Murphy’s possible defecting to the Republican Party. Rep. Patrick Murphy (D)
GOP leadership passed on Murphy’s offer, according to the source." |
