Continuing the excerpt:

“Current state Governor Ron DeSantis (R) is term-limited and cannot seek re-election. He sailed to victory this year and turned what was once viewed as a swing state to a Republican stronghold.”

He could just as easily re-take his seat in FL-1 in the next Congress.

We can’t spare him, his intelligence is needed in the house and some day in the senate.

He actually already won his seat in the next congress.. he resigned from the current congress. So he has the option to hold his seat.

But he says he doesn’t want it - I think he has been offered something else in the Trump Administration.

It is—agree it is a big loss but he said he is not going back and they have begun the special election for his seat.

Agreed. Zero interest in him as governor and he’d kill the progress the state party has of an overwhelming majority across voters. Half the democrats I know voted for Desantis. Follow the blueprint and we win in perpetuity.

I was talking about Byron Donald but I agree Matt will be a great governor.

The idea of taking Rubio’s seat is appealing to me.

<>Think Katherine Harris.<>

I did. I also reread Mark Levin's section on FL 2000 from his Men in Black, which includes Katherine Harris' role as SecState.

What is your point?

Gates will land on his feet. Most likely in the Trump administration in a very important job.

“Damaged goods” can still be merchandised, given the right application and with a little remediation of the existing damage.

Bomb throwers are in acutely short supp0ly within the ranks of the MAGA branch of the Republican party.
