Here’s A Hint
What has Zero done for the Democratic Party, he’s made it the home of Reagan Republicans.
The Miami Herald reports that Ex-GOP senator to run for House as Democrat
TALLAHASSEE — Saying the Republican Party has left her and is now owned by ideologues, former GOP state Sen. Nancy Argenziano says she will run for the U.S. House of Representatives as a Democrat.
Argenziano will seek the District 2 seat in North Florida now held by freshman Republican Steve Southerland, who unseated longtime Democrat Allen Boyd in November 2010.
In a prepared statement Monday, Argenziano likened herself to a Ronald Reagan Republican.
“The current iteration of the party abandoned real Republican principles long ago to cater to ideologues and corporations — the Koch entities, most notably — whose interests lie in the profiteering of America and the sacking of the middle class,” Argenziano, 56, wrote in a letter announcing her candidacy.
“Current Republican leaders have neither patience with nor allowance for honest elected officials, and they demand that members of the various legislatures — who, after all, have sworn to uphold the Constitution — instead just follow the hijacked party line and shut up.”
The White House will be rushing to help her, because there can never be too many “blue dogs’ in the Democratic caucus.
