Report: Tim Tebow considering open Florida House seat, would be ‘shoo-in’

[yortsed snacilbuper]

Tim Tebow is a natural for politics. There is an open House appropriator seat coming available in Florida after Rep. Ander Crenshaw announced his upcoming retirement, and Tebow just so happens to live in the district.

1. He irritates me

[Lint Head]

2. Oh boy...another pro life death to abortion doctors

freak to have to put up with in the future. They are like gnats at a picnic. They just won't go away.

3. This will be an even bigger joke than "Congressman" Tom Osborne

[Viva_La_Revolution]

4. name recognition is what they vote on there i guess

Explains Hillary's win there too

[trumad]

11. Oh I see.

That's why I voted for Hillary. It was the name.

So much for 15 years here on DU.....and over 40 years of being a political junkie.

Hey BSers...Tick Tock

[Viva_La_Revolution]

12. not you

Thousands of low information voters at the beginning of the primary season, of course.

I've always considered you one of the smarter loonies in the bin

[Chan790]

16. I've never understood how some people can be so enthusiastic to Mondale an election. n/t

[dembotoz]

5. bet he will be really popular on the gop fundraiser circuit

[madinmaryland]

6. He will never pass any bills, because they will all be intercepted!!

[Scurrilous]

8. ...

[PM Martin]

7. -1

[Vinca]

9. Oh great. He's the Bible thumping, holier-than-thou football player, right?

Just what Florida needs. More religious nuts in their government.

[Scurrilous]

10. I dunno...

...you can't be a genuine Republican politician unless you like to @#$% the people, and Timmy (famously) don't @#$%.

13. The former Sheriff from Jacksonville is running for that spot

http://m.jacksonville.com/news/2016-04-15/story/former-jacksonville-sheriff-john-rutherford-will-run-retiring-us-rep-crenshaws

Rutherford has quickly become a formidable candidate for the office, winning the support of Jacksonville Mayor Lenny Curry and major GOP donor Peter Rummell even before he had committed to run. He is the first high-profile candidate to announce a run.

[UTUSN]

14. Oh good grief, wingnuts keep crawling from under rocks. Is he still a virgin? n/t

[Chan790]

18. Yup.

His girlfriend just broke up with him a few months ago over it. She got tired of waiting for him to sleep with her according to the rumors.

[JI7]

15. what party ?

[Kaleva]

17. He'll get national support and contributions

[NuclearDem]

19. He'll do really well in the primaries, then just sort of fizzle out in the general

when it turns out he wasn't really as good a candidate as a lot of people made him out to be.

[GOLGO 13]

20. Meh. He's going to need a lot of hand holding. Still lives deep, deep in the bubble.

Lets see how he handles all that "reality" that constantly get thrown at politicians. His ego will have problems dealing with the daily grind that a Rep goes through. Another crash N burn little timmy.

[Rex]

21. Good he needs to shed a few million dollars in a failed bid.

Couldn't happen to a bigger dumbass.
