Florida House District 16

GOPer Tom Rooney just emerged from the primary and will face endangered incumbent Tim Mahoney in November.

Rooney, an Army vet and west point instructor, is best known as heir to the Pittsburgh Steelers fortune, but Mahoney, who has never served in the military, is known as the ‘accidental congressman' elected in a conservative district that gave Bush 55% in '04 in the wake of Mark Foley's resignation. He had never held elective office before. Mahoney believes that homeland security means port security and first responders.
