Liberal PAC opens Palm Beach County office to ‘take down Allen West’
by George Bennett | April 27th, 2012A liberal PAC is opening a “Take Down Allen West Headquarters” in Palm Beach Gardens as part of its efforts to oust 10 House Republicans around the U.S.
San Francisco-based Credo SuperPAC, which has four paid staffers working on anti-West efforts, is one of at least three organizations that regularly sends video trackers to West events to capture comments like West’s recent declaration that between 78 and 81 House Democrats are members of the Communist Party.
The PAC has raised about $1.2 million. Its largest contributor is Oregon author and Barack Obama campaign money-raiser Win McCormack, who gave $125,000.
Local Credo organizer Justin Snyder said the PAC doesn’t focus on TV ads but grass-roots activities. In addition to the PAC’s four local paid staffers, Snyder said Credo has enlisted about 300 volunteers.

Yep, they’ll hang this black man. Just like they did with Kendrick Meek.

PEOPLE POWER!!!
Allen West wants to make this election about HIM.
It’s not about him.
It’s about THE ISSUES that matter.
It’s about PROGRESS.
It’s about SOLUTIONS to our problems.
It’s about COMPROMISE necessary to pass bills that help Floridians.
Allen West had his chance to represent Florida. He offered ZERO bills that would help his constituents. He has prevented any progress out of our economic doldrums with his relentless “no” votes on bills that Floridians care about.
Patrick Murphy will NOT stand in the way of PROGRESS.
Patrick Murphy will NOT stand in the way of SOLUTIONS.
Patrick Murphy will NOT stand in the way of COMPROMISE.
Patrick Murphy will NOT stand in the way of ECONOMIC FAIRNESS.
Patrick Murphy is a true public servant.
Patrick Murphy should be given the chance to serve the people he has known his entire life, the people of Florida’s coast.
I live in FL-22, so unfortunately I cannot vote against Allen West, even though I would LOVE the chance to vote him out after what he has put this district through… but I will say this… in all my life, I have never been so astounded at the utter lack of professionalism from a politician as I have been from Allen West the last two years.
His insulting demeanor should disqualify him from holding public office.
However, more importantly, WE FLORIDIANS DESERVE SOMEONE WHO WILL GRACIOUSLY AND PROFESSIONALLY SERVE THE PEOPLE OF FLORIDA.
I know for a fact that Patrick Murphy is that person.
The choice is abundantly clear this November. I hope Floridians from all parties will support the progress we need so we can have economic growth and OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL CITIZENS, not just the already extraordinarily wealthy.

By you over officious jagoff! You will not be missed. I for one, can not wait to see West fail. Not because he is black, not because I hate America but because ignorance should never be rewarded and he is a cartpetbagging clown who has done NOTHING since taking office. Ya fooled the teaBaggers,but ya didnt fool me!

Patrick Murphy works for Daddy and is 28 years old. He’s never served his country. He switched from Republican to Democrat, moved from Miami to Broward and is buying his way into politics.
Could the Post Times indicate how many democrat candidates it has endorsed as opposed to republican candidates?
April 27th, 2012 at 5:37 pm
West a carpetbagger?!?!
Check out Murphy. Move from Miami, to Broward and then to Palm Beach to run for office.
It’s just like billionaire Jeff Greene, failed in California moved to Palm Beach and ran for senator.
Ditto, billionaire Alan the nonhuman Grayson.
We won’t go to Robert Wexler who MOVED from his district and lived in Maryland with his family.
Democrats are evil
April 27th, 2012 at 5:40 pm
Funny how Marco Rubio’s family has been threatened the minute he appeared with Mitt Romney.
We live in a very scary country.
Are democrats scared Rubio will win over FL?
Be wary of all democrats.

Buyer + Movers + Tactics,
(obviously the same person)
Here’s a clue for you:
FEAR-MONGERING ONLY WORKS ON REPUBLICANS.
The vast majority of Americans (Dems and Indies) are sick and tired of the right wing’s Penny-Henny The Sky Is Falling BULL-POOP!
The fact that the GOP has been in charge of the House of Representatives for the last TWO YEARS and gotten almost NOTHING accomplished just shows what most people already have known for YEARS if not decades.
And that is that REPUBLICANS CAN’T GOVERN.
They HATE governing.
They HATE solutions.
They HATE compromise.
They HATE progress.
All they want is to redistribute the wealth of 99% of Americans up to the richest people on Earth.
They have NO interest in the economy.
They have NO interest in helping the Middle Class.
We are DONE with you and your lies.
Solutions to this country’s problems have been put on the backburner for FAR TOO LONG while the GOP continues its crusade against Women, African-Americans, GLBT Americans, and of course anyone who DARE disagree with Rush Limbaugh or Glenn Beck or anyone on Fox Noise.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!!!
GOTV AMERICA!!!
GOTV FLORIDA!!!
GOTV DEMS!!!
Let’s Roll!
For AMERICA!
For the FUTURE!
For our CHILDREN!

Is this as detailed as you get in your stories? You might as well be a twitlonger tweet.
Can you give anymore information in your stories?
Just wondering…
April 27th, 2012 at 11:10 pm
Allen West Must Go, listen up:
Only liberals are paranoid a conservative might make sense and win people over to see the light!
Here’s a clue you might be dim:
FEAR-MONGERING IS THE ONLY TACTIC STATISTS (MILITANT LIBS) KNOW.
I didn’t know that you spoke for all dems AND independents? And can you be more specific than Penny-the sky-bull poop
If you knew ANYTHING about how the three branches of gov worked, you would know that the House of Reps cannot do ANYTHING (getting bills passed into law), without the Senate AND the prez going along with the bills. Let me guess, your 20-30 something, your too young for school-house rock (♪yes I’m only a bill, and I’m sitting here on Capitol Hill♬).
The Senate has blocked most everything the repubs have put through, and believe me they have passed a slew of bills. And the rest the prez has vetoed (if any, I’m not sure if he’s used his veto pen yet).
But since your dim I’ll say it again: The House is only ONE-THIRD of Gov. they CANNOT pass any laws by themselves.
Let me guess, you towing the dem line: “You republicans have had the House for 2yrs. (really, just 18 mos.) & expect the whole country to believe that nothing’s getting done in gov.
Math wiz you are, one-third does not equal one. Can’t govern with only ¹/³.
Give us conservatives all 3 branches and I’ll bet that they’ll put millions to work,
even YOU!
They HATE a LACK of COMMON SENSE!
They HATE DOUBLE STANDARDS!
They HATE a politicians that WON’T DO THEIR JOB!
They HATE A LACK of progress.
All they want is EVERYBODY live in the 100%.to let EVERYBODY to KEEP MORE of what they’ve EARNED! That INCLUDES YOU!
They want the economy to BOOM!
Not STALWARTS that impede progress!
They don’t want anybody to have to live in a Middle Class.
You and your kind, are full of lies!
I agree this country’s problems has been put on the backburner for FAR TOO LONG while the DEMS continues its crusade against Women, African-Americans, GLBT Americans, and of course anyone who DARE disagree with Saul Alinski or George Soros or anyone on Media Grip on America.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!!!
For EVERYBODY!!!!

April 28th, 2012 at 8:11 pm
Tim and Murphy, save your money are the same ignorant little troll congradulating himself on his worthless post. He thinks he is impressing people. Pulls this all the time. Right Obiloser?
April 30th, 2012 at 9:07 am
The redistricting took me out of the great Ted Deutch’s district (boo hoo) but now I am in dist 19 and can help oust crazy Allen West. Bye bye screwball.
April 30th, 2012 at 10:01 am
Well Tim, you are totally incoherent, but what is clear is that for some reason — although you won’t say why — you HATE “Liberals”…
Seeing as how you did not address the substance of my post, I will just re-post it and see if you are capable of responding intelligently (cough cough yeah right).
It’s about THE ISSUES that matter.
It’s about PROGRESS.
It’s about SOLUTIONS to our problems.
It’s about COMPROMISE necessary to pass bills that help Floridians.
Allen West had his chance to represent Florida. He offered ZERO bills that would help his constituents. He has prevented any progress out of our economic doldrums with his relentless “no” votes on bills that Floridians care about.
Patrick Murphy will NOT stand in the way of PROGRESS.
Patrick Murphy will NOT stand in the way of SOLUTIONS.
Patrick Murphy will NOT stand in the way of COMPROMISE.
Patrick Murphy will NOT stand in the way of ECONOMIC FAIRNESS.
Patrick Murphy is a true public servant.
Patrick Murphy should be given the chance to serve the people he has known his entire life, the people of Florida’s coast.
April 30th, 2012 at 10:08 am
How can anyone say ‘it’s all about Allan West’ when they name the PAC ‘Take Down Allan West’? Patrick Murphy is a 28-year-old accountant working for his father. Please explain in what respects he is ‘a true public servant’. Silly liberals. They cannot bear to see a conservative black person. They despise West, Condi Rice, Clarence Thomas, and so many others. They, who say they represent blacks, want nothing other than to keep them on the Democrat plantation, beholden to the Democrats for their daily bread. As more blacks become well educated, they leave the plantation, and the Democrats will not tolerate that type of behavior.
April 30th, 2012 at 10:19 am
Patrick Murphy is 28 years old.
He works for his Daddy.
He moved from Miami because he couldn’t run there,
then move to Broward to run
and then had to move to Palm Beach County to run!
That’s not someone who is for the people.
That’s someone who is for himself.
Patrick Murphy has NO BACKGROUND, NO PAST EXPERIENCE.
April 30th, 2012 at 10:39 am
The difference between Allen West and Patrick Murphy changing districts:
Allen West is running from a tough fight.
Patrick Murphy is following West and looking tough fight.
April 30th, 2012 at 1:01 pm
Ever notice that those who like West profess to do so without giving one good reason for doing so? It certainly isn’t because of anything he does unless you think that making outrageous claims and statements without providing evidence is actually doing something. West is cutting and running from his current district because he knows he can’t win again in the 22nd district. West represents the most obvious trait of a republican, ALL HOT AIR and NO SUBSTANCE.
May 7th, 2012 at 10:03 am
Why is this San Francisco based far left group, out of Nancy Pelosi’s back yard, so intent on fighting this battle here? As a resident of the old district 22 and the new district. I don’t need Nancy Pelosi telling me how to vote. This group is funded by Credo telecom and it’s founder. They have direct ties to the communist party USA. It’s not selling here.
May 7th, 2012 at 11:42 am
Tired of West’s HOT AIR!
Actually I agree with almost every vote he has cast. So there’s that reason.
Did you miss the redistricting? I don’t think he’s running from me since I was in the old district and I’m in the new one too. I happen to like the fact that I can vote for him again. So who’s full of Hot Air?
May 7th, 2012 at 11:57 am
The real Liberal agenda is just under the surface and they expose a little more everyday http://youtu.be/o3I-PVVowFY
This IS what we’re up against. They lie through their teeth to hide their ultimate goals.
