Posey his bewildered as to why Allen hasn't stepped down. Posey has been in politics long enough to know that public humiliation does not equate into the decision-making process of politicians.
Posey rightly wants Bob Allen out of office because Allen is a convicted criminal and doesn't want Allen to follow him into the Senate (Posey is term-limited and can't seek his seat again). Is it because Allen is doing a bad job of representing the people of Brevard County and can't do the job in the Senate? Probably not:
“I don’t think there’s any chance that that’s going to happen,” Posey said Tuesday. “There’s probably only about 500,000 people in Brevard County (population 550,000) that would have a better chance of winning at this point.”
Ahhhh, it's all about Republicans retaining the seat. He doesn't want Allen to run because Allen would lose. The Republican Party -- Partisanship above all else!
