Via The Hill:

Former Rep. Allen West (R-Fla.) said Wednesday that he may mount a primary challenge to Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) in their state’s 2016 U.S. Senate primary.

West told station WMAL that he could run for Senate “if I see people that are not taking our country down the right path, if I see people that are not standing up for the right type of principles, and putting their own party politics before what is best for the United States of America.”

Asked directly in he would rule out challenging Rubio, West responded, “Chirping… chirping… chirping.”

We’ll see what happens down the pike,” he added. “God will set my feet on the right path.”

The one-term congressman, who narrowly lost re-election last year, acknowledged he would face an uphill battle.

“That’s a pretty heavy lift, because you’re talking about running against a sitting senator, and then, of course, that creates that schism that the other side would love to see happen,” said West.

But the former congressman said he had a “lot of concerns” over the comprehensive immigration reform proposal crafted by a bipartisan group — including Rubio — in the Senate.

Now this is excellent news!

West has no chance in the Miami area with all the Cuban voters that Rubio will have a lock on,but a US Senate seat is voted on by all the citizens of the state,so IMHO he has a real shot at winning.

I know he would get my vote if I lived in Fla and he was running against Rubio.

I would definitely contribute, and I'm in California.

GO WEST!!

I think it is great when any politician is Primaried. It makes them defend their record out in the open good or bad. I hope West does this just for that fact alone, not to mention that Marco is a fraud.
