Former liberal inspired to the Right by the Fall of the Berlin Wall

It's got a pro-Democrat lean of +18 according to the Cook Report. The 20th District of Florida is currently represented by ultra-liberal Debbie Wasserman-Shultz. She is a regular on cable news shows, particularly MSNBC, known for bashing Republicans and anything on the right-side. Shultz has a perfect 100% liberal voting record, and has been particularly out on the forefront on socializing health care. If there's a far left cause, wild-eyed Wasserman-Shultz is on the tube ready to defend it.

For years the GOP has been putting up line-holder candidates who ran less-than-serious campaigns against her. Enter Robert Lowery.

A "Marco Rubio Republican"

Lowery has been called an "Americanist." He models himself after Florida Senate candidate and son of Cuban exiles from Communism Marco Rubio.

On illegal immigration such as the Middle East, Lowery stated:

"I am happy to see that Marco Rubio and I are on the same page. I’m all about Rubio."

From RedCounty.com:

In spite of the large registration advantage that Democrats enjoy in the 20th Congressional district, Lowry believes he can win the seat because he stands on the principles that this country was founded on. “Everyone is American first, family is second and party third,” Lowry explains.

Unwavering commitment to Capitalism

What may be most inspiring is that Lowery is a former liberal himself.

From his Bio:

A student of sociology in my early college experience, I was a committed liberal (as many students typically are) attending rallies and marching on Washington D.C. That was until travels to East Berlin, Prague, and other parts of Europe, opened my eyes to the dangers of socialism, causing me to take another look at my political commitments. I made a dramatic change to conservatism, and never looked back.

When I returned from my travels in Europe, I switched degree choices and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Economics. I had found that the only way to effectively change the world was through sound economic principles, and a commitment to Free Market capitalism.

And in addition to being a hardened fighter against Communism and Communism lite (Obama-style Socialism), Lowry champions the cause of Americanist values and the fight against Radical Islam. His website boasts, "prepared to fight for freedom every step of the way."

Yes to the US Constitution; No to Sharia Law

At a recent rally (YouTube) against CAIR (Counsel of American Islamic Relations), Lowery said:

They seek to replace our own Constitution, the law of the land, with their own Sharia Law, and that is unacceptable...

Don't ever underestimate an angry American. Britain underestimated us with the first Tea Party movement 230 years ago. Germany's Hitler seriously underestimated America, and so did Japan. We are at War today ladies and gentleman. Make no mistake. We will win this War. This enemy is right in front of us. They're in our neighborhoods. They're in our schools. They're in our universities. We must not be afraid to defend our shores from the hate that is spreading through this great Nation like a cancer...

Lowry's passionate defense of freedom against Islamic radicalism has won him the enthusiastic endorsment of Ayn Randist blogger and frequent Floridian Pamela Geller of Atlas Shrugs:

Robert Lowry, a stand up guy stands up to CAIR. Lowry is running for Congress in the 20th district in Florida. I will only support canddates that will fight against the overthrow of America. Any candidate that ignores the greatest threat to America should be ignored. We must fill the halls of Congress with fighters who will beat back the Islamisation of America.
