    Republican David Jolly beats Alex Sink in Florida special election

    Republican David Jolly beats Alex Sink in Florida special election

    Republican David Jolly narrowly defeated Democrat Alex Sink on Tuesday in a Tampa-area House race largely seen as a critical test for ObamaCare.

    With nearly 100 percent of the vote counted, Jolly had 48.5 percent of the vote to Sink's 46.7 percent. Libertarian Lucas Overby had 4.8 percent.

    The race to replace the late Rep. Bill Young was considered a tossup, and was cast as a political bellwether, and a testing ground for each party's messaging strategy -- which revolves in part around the Affordable Care Act.

    Do you think ObamaCare played a roll in their election?

    Listen to right wing radio when ya get a chance... They intentionally say things to keep their listeners in the dark about reality. Apparently it's very easy to manipulate others into voting against their families best interest.
    There is a comment for you. How does the post explain away all the stuff President Obama said while running for office...

    Mika Brzezinski had more of a sour puss than normal this morning when the election was discussed. That's my barometer on how liberals feel about a subject, the more scowl on her face the better it is for the conservatives.

    They had a good discussion about other issues in the election, Sink was also a bank exec that received bonuses while employees were laid off, another point that was used against her and may not have sat well with voters. The dem spin was that she was outspent and lost in a R district, even though she had the lead early on.

    Would it matter if it didn't play any role? The right will just say it did.
