Mack, who served in the Florida House of Representatives from 2000-2003, is assuming the role his father, Connie Mack III, once filled, representing much of the same solidly conservative parts of Florida's west coast. Mack's great-grandfather was a Hall of Fame baseball manager and owner of the Philadelphia Athletics team.
Mack has stated an interest in limiting the amount of money attorneys can receive in medical malpractice cases. But he has broken with the party line in the past to support expanded federal funding for embryonic stem cell research and the importation of prescription drugs from Canada.
