Pelosi: "Allen West's Defeat Would Be Sweet For The Country"

A black conservative: liberals' worst nightmare

For liberals, yes. For the country, no. Seeing how the conservative Republican Congressman raised more than $10 million for his re-election, the Democrats are gonna have to triple their investment to even toe up with him: "The top Democrat in the Congress, Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, said Monday that ousting Florida's most prominent Republican, U.S. Rep. Allen West, would be sweet for the country."

More: "Appearing in South Florida, where she's been holding a series of private fundraising events and a public campaign event for one congressional candidate, the former U.S. House speaker was asked if not having West in the next Congress would be sweet for Democrats. Her response: 'How sweet would it be for the country?'"

More: "West recently moved from Plantation to Palm Beach Gardens to seek a second term in more Republican-friendly territory. Pelosi was in Boca Raton on Monday to tout the candidacy of Lois Frankel, a Democrat running to succeed West in the Broward-Palm Beach County 22nd District. Frankel, a former West Palm Beach mayor and former minority party leader in the Florida House, faces Broward County Commissioner Kristin Jacobs in the Aug. 14 Democratic primary."
