With my 5 years of Florida politics experience I can say a few things. DeSantis will win reelection in a landslide. I heard that Crist was a slimy used car salesman when he was in Tallahassee. Bending to the will of the highest bidder. Far from Rick Scott who really did nothing except ride his final years in Tallahassee until he Senate race against the Former Senator Bill Nelson , another hack. Florida has become the political hot bed of conservative politicians for the entire country.
With that said can anyone tell me how Jeb was? Or should I just assume he was as clueless as he portrayed during the 2016 Presidential primaries

He has a new agenda. Democrats. I am so sure as a republican he did just that. It’s the brand. Now let’s talk about DeSantis and his Utah self promoting type thinking.
Fyi 69 Fl native.

i sincerely wish political candidates would campaign on political issues, god knows there are many, instead of fanning the flames of hatred for their opposing political rival and her/his supporters.

labeling the other side of the political aisle evil people will not end will for florida or the country if this incendiary rhetoric keeps up.

There are laws against being trans, and laws against black history? So it's against the law for Florida schools to teach about George Washington Carver, or MLK Jr?

I suspect you've lost the argument, so resort to deceptive and dishonest stone throwing.

"Those who support the governor should stay with him and vote for him. And I don't want your vote. If you have that hate in your heart, keep it there," Crist said during his first press conference in St. Petersburg as Florida's Democratic gubernatorial nominee.

Does Crist live in such a political bubble he actually believes he won't need to peel away some of the DeSantis support in order to win?

Why would Crist shoot himself in the foot like that?

I don't believe I'd go by what "they" say about you. It's all fabricated nonsense from their lala land.

Dear Mr. Crist,

Have no fear, I had every intention of holding on to my singular hatred of government, with idiots like you making that hate glow just a smidge brighter every time you speak.

And I was never going to vote anyway, for you or anyone else.

May a pox fall upon your house.

Sincerely,

Volobjectitarian.

Crist knows he's going to lose, and knows he's going to lose big.

What he's doing is intentionally acting like a smug prick to take out the sting of his spanking coming this November.

Kind of like the guy who has no chances with the girl screaming " I wouldn't date you anyways"

Not my argument- the people who are affected by his bills. Take it or leave it, these folks do feel their freedoms are in peril. And they will vote. Whether you agree or not has no relevance- to them.

You are dodging the point of my response to your assertion, that Florida state government are "making laws against women - trans- black history -etc."

Either back your statements up with proof, or admit you are either trolling and flaying about for a wet useless straw to grab
