Yes, if he wins, he'll flip back to the Republicans the first time they retake the House.

Either that, or in 2012 the Democratic Alabama legislature redraws his district to include the minority parts of Montgomery they put in AL-3 to make it competitive when Bob Riley ran for governor.

He's going to be a voice for farm subsidies for whichever party he aligns with.

Yes, if he wins he will probably be drawn a district in 2012 that is about 40% black by extending the district accross the black belt, taking in minority parts of Mobile and then shedding off Autuga and Elmore counties as well as Houston county and most of the counties along the Florida border.  This would likely require Artur Davis to accept a somewhat whiter district, but he would still win it easily.
