Widely seen as the most vulnerable Democrat in the U.S. House, Tim Mahoney didn't help himself when he was quoted in The Hill newspaper this week. “I think there was a concern that I wasn’t happy in Congress. Very candidly, this isn’t the greatest job I’ve had,” said the Palm Beach Gardens businessman trying to get used to the pace of action in Congress.

State GOP Chairman Jim Greer, before taping a "Political Connections" interviewing airing Sunday, said Mahoney can expect to hear a lot about that quote between now and election day and voters will "place a Republican in that office who would care about the job much more than Congressman Mahoney."

This statement came today from the campaign of Republican Gayle Harrell: "Public service is an honor, not a nuisance. If Mahoney lacks the stomach to serve, he should set aside" said Anthony Bonna, Deputy Campaign Manager of the Harrell Campaign. "Voters deserve a committed and motivated voice in Washington."
