Florida’s District 7 should be added to the Swing State Project. The surrounding districts of Feeney and Keller were targeted, but not John Mica’s. District 7 has a small Republican advantage, but that may not even be true now, since Democrats have been outregistering Republicans by about a 5-1 margin.
Faye Armitage is a formidable opponent for Mica. Please check out her website www.fayeforcongress.com

That’s the best we can hope for in the 7th this year. It’s about what we took there in 2006. Trust me, I live in the 24th, but the 7th district ends near me and I’m very familiar with the district. We have zero chance of winning it. The registration trends for the 7th district are in our favor, but it’s a drop in the bucket.
In a state with a lot of competitive house races FL-07 won’t get oxygen this time. FL-13, FL-24, FL-25, FL-18, FL-08, FL-21 are repub districts with races that are or might be competitive not to mention our defence in FL-16 and FL-22.
Faye needs to run again in 2010 to try and get on the radar then. Her poor fundraising doesn’t help her cause either.
It turns out that Scarborough ran for re-election in 2000 and was re-elected in 2000 but quit his office the following year.
Chenoweth, “descibed as a true believer”, honored her pledge although she called term limits “bad policy.” Salmon honored the pledge and then ran for Governor of Arizona in 2002 (and lost).
Term limits is, indeed, a toothless wonder with no real constituency behind it.
In case no one was aware, Faye easily won her FL-07 Primary. She is ready to face her opponent, John Mica, in the general election.
