Wexler exit might leave seat empty until May

Wexler
Scheduling is tricky because of the holidays and federal overseas ballot requirements. If Wexler’s chosen successor — Democratic state Sen. Ted Deutch of Boca Raton — wins the congressional seat, Deutch’s constituents might be without a Senator in Tallahassee for much of the 2010 legislative session.

With Deutch being a member of the minority party, it isn’t like that district has much luck in the legislature anyway…

Hardly a big loss. These guys don’t represent anyone except themselves anyway!

I agree, they’re nothing but a legal organized crime syndicate and their only allegiance is to themselves.
They and our representation are bought and sold on an open and obvious market.

Deutch needs to represent his constiutuents in Tallahassee or leave himself exposed to being AWOL, while accepting public money. You can’t have it both ways…that’s called double dipping. Doesn’t he work for that crook Rothstein?

Deutch should be our congressman but if he does anything anything like Wexler tell him to go home!
