It looks as if former U .S. Rep. Mike Fitzpatrick (R.,Pa.) wants to attempt a comeback in the Bucks County-centered 8th congressional district.
Republican sources say that Fitzpatrick has scheduled a Saturday "announcement about his political future" for Saturday at 1 p.m. at a school in Langhorne, Pa.
He would take on U.S. Rep. Patrick Murphy (D.,Pa.), an army veteran of Iraq, who wrested the seat from Fitzpatrick in 2006, the year of voter revolt against congressional Republicans.
It's goin' come back an' bite you in the arse, Murphy. Go bye to you and your ilk.— junethe4th- "Go bye to you and your ilk." Wow. What does that mean, genius? Your ilk is a bunch of illiterate rednecks. YEEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAAAAAW!!— legend1

- Murphy's first campaign highlighted he would do battle to stop 'pork spending'. His first term he was top as a Freshman Congressman to take 'pork money' - so much for that campaign promise. He is only in his second term and has been investigated on use of campaign monies. Check out his contributors and note the name of George Soros. His voting record on spending goes against desires of his voters. He received Fraternal Order of Police Lodge 5 support because his father was a Philly police officer. I am also a retired P/O and do not see why that gives anyone a leg up in support. He is, and has been, a disappointment - bring on the challenger and let that challenger take the seat!!!— cheshilguy
