GOP Catching Up in FL Senate Race
Pundit Press ^ | 11/11/2011 | Thomas Ferdousi

Just a year after Floridians put Marco Rubio in the Senate, they may decide to send another next year. Incumbent Senator and former astronaut Bill Nelson has not made up his mind on another run, but if he does it may be a difficult race.

He may be facing off against Representative Connie Mack. Congressman Mack has a lot of family history in Florida politics. His grandfather was a Senator from the state. His grandfather was also the legendary baseball manager.

Mack received almost 69% in his re-election bid last year, and has always received upwards of 59% in every race that he's run. In 2006, Nelson received 60%. It would certainly be a competitive race.

If Marco Rubio is the Vice Presidential candidate, it will be awesome. Not only florida, but lot of states like Nevada, Colorado & New Mexico will be easily won by Republicans. Also conservatives would love it. But will he run?”

I hope he doesn’t try because he is not a natural born citizen - his parents were not yet naturalized at the time he was born. He would however make an excellent Senate Majority Leader!

Our elected junior Senator, likeable, is NOT a NBC and does NOT qualify according to the Constitution, even as he is a Conservative Republican, end story!!!
