Reply #31: Good question. FDP didn't endorse his opponent, Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) did [View All]

(the second article in my post below, the one with the Q/A is the transcript of the the Thurman interview to which you refer. The question about giving her son money is there, she denies it until
he points out that it's in the Florida database, at which point, she walks off.)

Now what in the heck is Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a South Florida Democrat, doing endorsing the
Republican running against Russell?

Prominent Florida Democrat Endorsed Republican Incumbent in Russell’s Race

Before the campaign in Florida’s 5th Congressional district ever got underway, one of Florida’s most prominent politicians seemed to endorse the Republican incumbent.

“The bottom line is that the voters, whether they’re in the most liberal or conservative or moderate districts, they like their elected officials to have the backbone of steel that Ginny Brown-Waite has,” said Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, a liberal Democrat from Broward County who has worked with, and against, her since their days in the Florida Legislature.

“When constituents know they are represented by someone who is willing to vote her conscience and do the right thing and is independent and not a rubber-stamp, that’s going to be tough to beat.” St. Petersburg Times 27 May 2006
