Profile: She’s giving folks who are sick of Debbie Wasserman-Schultz reasons to cheer

Meet Karen Harrington, the Republican challenger who, in 2010, nearly beat Debbie Wasserman Schultz in a 2:1 Democratic district. Accustomed to comfortable margins of victory, Wasserman Schultz was surprised a year ago when Harrington pulled in nearly 40 percent of the vote.

Harrington also happens to have a warm relationship with Rep. Allen West, who notoriously called Debbie Wasserman Schultz “not a lady.” In contrast to his strong censure of DWS, West has expressed his eagerness to “lock shields and hold swords” with Harrington in the fight against big government. Harrington also snagged Florida Sen. Marco Rubio’s former campaign manager to aid in her election effort.
