Reply #7: I am in the neighboring district, dont worry we will take this seat. [View All]

Foley's name MUST remain on the ballot.

The Florida Supreme Court has the final say and has a reliable liberal tilt (5 dems, 2 jebbies).
They ruled on this in 2004 (Jim Stork v Clay Shaw)and there is precident.

The district is not total wingnut country. (it is fast growing and is suburban and mostly upper middle class) Over 50% will have to pull the lever for an accused child predator. That will not happen.

Jeb would have to call an emergency legislative session and call the whole legislature to rewrite the law. This would bring a media frenzy on the Florida party and hurt them (and GOP Gov hopefull and current ATTY GENERAL Charlie Crist) in the statewide election. (and if it did it would be struck down by the supreme court)

I am optimistic here.
