As Sarah Palin once stated at the 2008 Vice Presidential debate against then-Senator Joe Biden, “Say it ain’t so, Joe.”
The Miami Herald has reported that former Congressman Joe Garcia (D) is thinking about running for congress, again.
If Garcia runs for congress, it will be the 10th time he does so. Well, not really. If Joe does decide to run, it would be the fourth time he runs for the same congressional seat.
“I’m seriously considering it. The polls look very good for me… “I’m going to make a decision in the next few days, in the next week.”-Joe Garcia
Do you think the 2nd Amendment will be destroyed by the Biden Administration?(2)
Oh, let’s not forget about this:
A couple of markers suggested to party insiders that Garcia was seriously contemplating another campaign. The first was that the statute of limitations expired in early November in a federal investigation that led to the conviction of Garcia’s former political adviser and chief of staff — which meant Garcia himself could campaign without the shadow of the feds hanging over him.
The second was that Garcia left his job at a Miami Beach investment bank in December, a move that was seen as potential preparation for a candidacy. He’d held the job for less than a year; Garcia said he’s now working as an independent consultant.
Annette Taddeo, who has already filed to run for the congressional seat, is probably not all that happy with the prospect of a Garcia primary challenge.
Curbelo has played it well since being elected to the U.S. Congress by voting more as a moderate than an ideologue, but the newly redrawn congressional lines have probably kept the freshman congressman up at night, especially after he busted up his arm falling off a Hoverboard.
