Parker Griffith can lose

And he did.

Not long ago, Alabama congressman Parker Griffith switched his party affiliation from Democratic to Republican - even though the Republicans had been bleeding support for 5 years.

Griffith's switch didn't pay off. Yesterday, he lost the GOP primary to retain his seat.

So he's out of Congress at the end of this term.

What's more is that there's a strong chance that the Democrats will regain this seat in November. This is especially amusing, because the Republicans actually would have had a much better chance of keeping this seat if Griffith was their nominee.
