TEA PARTY LEADER ALLEN WEST CONCEDES

POLITICO: Florida Rep. Allen West -- the tea party pugilist and face of the class of House Republicans that stormed to power two years ago -- conceded Tuesday to 29-year-old construction executive Patrick Murphy in one of the nation’s highest-profile congressional races.

Jimmy --

You helped make this happen!

The right-wing threw everything they had at keeping their Tea Party hero in power -- but you fought back. You made sure that Democratic candidate Patrick Murphy wasn’t drowned out by West’s attack ad assault. You helped build the get-out-the-vote operation that made the final difference. And you helped us protect the ballots of Florida voters to ensure this huge victory.

We can’t thank you enough,

All of us at the DCCC

P.S. More good news! In California alone, 3 more races have been called for Democrats since Election Day, including the inspiring story of Dr. Raul Ruiz (seriously, this story ( http://www.dccc.org/page/m/1d63f4c2/1b5 ... 8871/VEsF/ ) will bring a smile to your face).
