I'm In. Are You?

by Alan Grayson

.....................


For the six million Americans who haven’t worked in six months and are seeing their benefits running out, for the eight million more who are unemployed, and for the eight million on top of that who can find only part-time work, I’m in.

For the millions of parents who have absolutely no idea how to pay for a college education for their children, I’m in.

And for everyone who is appalled by the prospect that we may cut Social Security and Medicare benefits as we spend more than $150 billion a year on three unnecessary wars and almost $100 billion a year on the Bush tax cuts for the rich, I’m in.

I’m in. And I’m going to need your help. Are you in?

4. I'm not...

I've met, I supported him in 2008, but I'm VERY leery of supporting candidates who've been thrown out of office and who want to try again. You're fundamentally telling the electorate to admit that they made a mistake the last time round, which is a heavy lift in my opinion.

5. But that is NOT how it probably will be - see below

Excerpt:

Grayson may not be running for his old seat with redistricting under way right now, he may end up running for a newly created seat for Orlando.
