U.S. Representative Allen West (R-FL) speaks at the Mae Volen Senior Center in Boca Raton, Florida, in this file image from August 12, 2011. Pressure is facing many of the 87 House Republican freshmen - most backed by the Tea Party - as they seek re-election nearly two years after they swept into Washington and helped change the national debate on government spending. Several Tea Party freshmen, including West, represent districts that are politically divided or leaning only slightly toward the Republican Party.
