Among more than 200 experts and veterans of Florida politics surveyed in the latest Tampa Bay Times Florida Insider Poll, nearly six in 10 this week said they expect Florida's Republican governor to unseat the three-term Democratic Senator.
This would be awesome WINNING!
Minus Virginia and Keebler elf attempt at AG we would have GOP across all the confederacy
Bill Nelson has been in Congress forever and has absolutely nada to show for it..................
It would be a blowout if the traitor Scott hadn’t signed the gun-control bill. He pissed off over half the conservatives in Florida and definitely lost the panhandle.
Unless we somehow cede Northern VA to MD I don't see how we turn VA red again anytime in my lifetime.
HERE’S HOW TO TELL IF BILL NELSON IS IN TROUBLE.
SEARCH GOOGLE FOR BILL NELSON CARICATURE OR BILL NELSON POLITICAL CARTOON.. REPORT WHAT YOU SEE IN IMAGES, AND IT’S NOT BILL NELSON. YES I KNOW I’M YELLING.
Don’t get too excited.
Rubio turned on the citizens almost immediately after being elected.
Yes, Rick Scott. The traitor who signed a gun control bill into law after Parkland that took a huge piss on due process.
You FL people do what you want. I don’t see Scott as an improvement, and I see more value in getting his ass handed to him for going against the 2A than unseating Nelson.
Given the direction in the news - the economy is doing well and people know it, the apparent breakthrough on North Korea, the burgeoning awareness that there is something seriously rotten in the DOJ and the FBI, the evaporation of the generic Dem lead in national polls, and Trump’s slow but sure rise in popularity - I’m beginning to believe that the so-called “Blue Wave” will be more like a small, blue swell in a kiddie pool. I think that the Dems will lose 5 seats in the Senate (and this article both makes me feel good AND reinforces this view), and that they may even make some small gains in the House.
I am just waiting for the reaction to this from the lunatics on the Left - they will go AT LEAST as crazy if this happens as they did when Trump won. It’ll not only mean that Trump won’t be impeached, but that he’ll get more of his agenda through, he’ll nominate and get through many more judges, and worst of all (from their POV) that he’ll be re-elected. I will predict right now that if the Dems don’t take the House (and, thus, cannot possibly impeach him on ANY pretext), that Trump will win in a legitimate landslide (55% of the vote, 400 E.V.s).
Good times...and stories like this are showing that things will continue to get better.
The problem is Rick Scott sucks. Sure Nelson sucks worse but make no mistake, Rick Scott sucks. Him caving in to the gun grabbers was disgusting.
This on top of his corrupt medicare fraud before he became governor. Yuck. Florida deserves better than this scumbag.
Great attitude, buddy. You should get a gold star from the RAT Party for that!
You and your kind are the RATS’ secret weapon.
Say hi to Mitch for me ...
D versus R comes first but Scott has done so much from guns to other issues to move himself to the Left its a joke.
He’s on his way to being “Senator McCain from Florida” and why should I cheer?
A victory for the “R” label not for conservative principles or smaller government and the Constitution be compromised for political expediency every time.
Next media blowup and Scott along with God forbid President Trump will be wailing to ‘get the guns’. Some new federal regulation will be passed like the “bump stock” one.
Afterwards they’ll make a “Second Amendment” speech maybe even in front of the NRA.
Bill Nelson has done nothing.
Bill Nelson has done nothing.
How long has Nelson been there? You people are getting stupid. Rick Scott is our best chance to take the seat. Let Trump deal with him. The gun thing? It’s as if there are no Democrats to make up for his stand. Get a grip.
That would be a huge win. Nelson is considered bullet proof. This is considered a “safe Dem” seat.
Scott votes with Trump. Nelson votes against him. Hold your nose and vote if you value what the President is doing.
