Today's Humor (3/1/17): Running Marco Rubio evicted!

I'm sure we all remember Marco Rubio, the person holding the record for being AWOL from Congress most often. Obviously Marco has a lot of things on his mind but governing isn't one of them. He is however quite fleet of foot when running away from his constituents.

However, his constituents know where he sometimes goes to hide works. In fact so many now have decided if Marco won't come to them, they will come to him. This display of citizen participation in what we peculiarly call "democracy" has so annoyed his landlord that Marco has been evicted from his office.

And people were polite to him and let him speak he is still going to destroy the ACA. The same thing would happen if people did scream at him.
He wants the ACA destroyed enough that it won't help people but still will allow the insurance companies to continue to make obscene profits.

Which AIPAC/MIC/pharma/bank bought politician are you going to vote for? Don’t be surprised when nothing changes.

that all these Repugnants are NOW protesting their representatives when they themselves elected these idiots and voted repeatedly for just the policies they now oppose. I know, probably not all are Repugnants and one should not use such divisive thoughts but really, it is the way of the American Tea Bagger, is it not? Now they've got some crappy insurance through ACA and they don't want to give that up, but when it was only the mythical "other" who was "getting it" they were all against it.

@lizzyh7 @lizzyh7 since Hillsborough County went for Clinton in 2016.

Hillsborough County, like most of Tampa Bay, was one of the first areas of Florida to turn Republican. However, for the last quarter-century, it has been a powerful swing county in one of the nation's most important swing states. It is part of the politically important I-4 Corridor between Tampa Bay and Orlando, an area that historically decides most elections in Florida. Hillsborough was considered a bellwether county, correctly voting for the statewide winner in every presidential election from 1964-2012. It has also voted for the winner of the presidency in every election since 1960 except twice, voting for the loser only in 1992 and 2016.

In Hillsborough County, Florida (Tampa), Democrats have traditionally out numbered Republicans in voter registrations. Current figures of the registered voters in Hillsborough County show Republicans comprise 31.4%, Democrats 39.5%, Independents 26.3%, and Others less than 3%.

Generally, in the most populous counties in Florida, voter registrations by party are split. Only Leon (Tallahasse) 52.9% Democrat and Broward (Fort Lauderdale) 50.6% have voter registrations over 50% Democrat among the most populous counties in Florida. Leon County has consistently had the highest voter turnout in the state.
