21. I haven't read that he has been drafted for advising Obama, but
I don't imagine that Obama would tune him out either.

5. I think he could follow a Bill Richardson type of path by getting a cabinet appointment which

can lead to the Senate or Governorship in the future.

I've always liked Wexler.

Did anyone else watch the few episodes of a reality show based on his office? There weren't that many episodes but I thought it was interesting.

edit to add - it was called The Hill and was on Sundance.

17. I have always loved him
He used to be my Congressman when I lived in Palm Beach County. He is the only one who really listens to his constituents. I've written him many times, each time getting a wonderful letter in return. Currently my Congressman is Mahoney. Let's just say - no comparison.

20. Wexler is one of the few non-DLC Dems in FL...
He's a treasure. He'd be great as a DNC keynote speaker.
