“true conservative running as an independent because a study we conducted said that a Republican was unlikely to take this gerrymandered district. “
Quick search shows that your statement is incorrect and self serving.
Republicans have a very good chance against the Dems, EXCEPT if an independent syphons votes away from the Republicans.
Boyd’s seat is ranked No. 2 on the list of most vulnerable ones, i.e. most likely to tip to Republicans — see link.
I question your motives — signed up 5/14/2010 — trying to pull a Perot in this race.
I hope those living in the district have more sense than fall for your tactics.
The Buzz introduces its House race rankings

“The Republican Party needs 40 seats to take control in the U.S. House of Representatives, and the road runs through Florida.
It is in this context that the Buzz unveils its inaugural ranking of the six House seats in Florida most vulnerable to a party switch this fall. Our rankings, which appear in descending order of vulnerability, are based on interviews with a range of political practitioners and independent observers.”
Oops — I was wrong about your sign up date, it’s 5/14/2009, nOT 2010, as I said in my previous post, erroneously.
But everything else in my post IS correct.
