Rep. Alan Grayson drives Republicans crazy. Insane. They hate him more than probably anyone else in the House, because he doesn't mince words, doesn't suffer GOP fools, doesn't run scared in what is a lean-GOP district (R+2). They also hate him because he knows how to poke them in the eye, time and time again. Like throwing his name into a Republican primary question. From his press release: Rep.
