Alan Grayson To Run For Office Again
ORLANDO, Fla. -- WFTV learned on Monday that former U.S. Congressman Alan Grayson is running for office again.

On Monday, Grayson said he doesn't plan to do anything different. He said he's running again because of all the people who have reached out and asked him to. Grayson already raised nearly $100,000 in donations before filing his paperwork on Monday.

"We need somebody who's gonna stick up for what's right. Somebody with guts," Grayson said.

Grayson said his approach this time around depends on the circumstances, but for the sake of supporters who sent him donations before he announced he's running again, he said he has no plans to hold back.

I hope he wins, but if he doesn't I hope President Obama will appoint him to something in his administration :)

8. I'm sure he has been targetted by the GOP as a potential future firebrand/liberal. They'll
attack any skeleton he has in his closet so I hope he is careful.
