The Republican lawmaker and several supporters were campaigning alongside a street corner in her hometown of Sarasota Tuesday evening. A silver Cadillac sped toward them, drove up onto the sidewalk where Harris stood, and then swerved away at the last minute, the Sarasota police report said.
No one was hurt. Witnesses noted the car's license tag number and police tracked the owner, Barry Seltzer, 46, of Sarasota, who was jailed early Wednesday on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon. He said he was annoyed because some of Harris' supporters were blocking traffic, the arrest report said.

"there is no way , this could be the same person? Or could it?"
It is an odd coincidence. I'm sure the article would have mentioned it if this was the same guy. It wouldn't surprise me if it were though.
This is just the beginning. After next week's reelection of G.W. Bush, look for more and more of this sort of thing. John Edward's wife said the other day that there wouldn't be any riots after the election - "if we win".

(Sorry for the double post. I forgot to separate my first sentence from the quote on my first attempt).
Good one.
I hope he gets a judge who will exercise his judicial power scare this character a little into time behind bars.

I agree with Rush that you can usually tell a liberal just by looking at him/her.

Well, the guy WAS driving a Cadillac.
"Looks like Detective Andy Sipowicz got to his face. Good job!"
Yeah, when you try to kill a Member of Congress who is also a woman the police can get just a tad irate. And I wouldn't have it any other way. (-:
Excellent statement. It needs to be repeated often.

This proves what I say in my tagline to be the gospel truth.
What kind of name is Barry Seltzer?
