Congressman Foley Aims To Topple Graham

[DemPopulist]

From Newsmax back in '03 - the same year he had that sex chat - some classic quotes:

Sen. Bob Graham ought to watch out as he rails against President Bush in his long-shot bid for the Democrats’ presidential nomination – Rep. Mark Foley is planning to replace him.

“I am fully committed to this race,” whether or not Graham seeks re-election to the Senate in 2004, the popular South Florida congressman said during a visit to NewsMax’s corporate headquarters.

Graham “has gone on a liberal left-hand turn” and has lost touch with increasingly Republican Florida, he noted.

Bob Graham is so out of touch, he doesn't even have AIM!

Foley is a solid Republican with strong conservative credentials.

I'll say.

The Democrats are “irrelevant, pessimistic and bereft of any ideas to lift the economy,” Foley told NewsMax. They have a “gleeful hope that things go bad,” a cynicism that doesn’t “sit well with the country.”

They're just a bunch of party-poopers, like Xxxxxxxx's yelling-mom.

Support for the popular president, in fact, is a cornerstone of Foley’s Senate campaign. By backing Bush 90 percent of the time in the House, he boasts of being one of the president’s most consistent allies in Congress and ranking third out of Florida’s 23-member delegation.

To which Bush responded: "Cool"

Foley is confident this record is more in tune with Floridians than Graham or any Democrat who tries to replace Graham.

Perhaps one day Florida’s governor will be telling Senate contenders, “You can be the next Mark Foley.”

That sounds a bit like, "I offer this virgin for sacrifice."
