>We need serious discussion about this senate seat.

Agree completely. Nelson will NOT be easy to beat. He hasn't done anything publicly stupid. He hasn't gotten his girlfriend pregnant and divorced his blind wife to marry her, as my Republican congressman has. Nelson's wife Grace is beautiful and sweet and works the Florida women 24/7... and rampant liberalism isn't enough to get a sitting Senator defeated this year.

How good a campaigner is Nelson? I was in a synagogue at a Bas Mitzvah with him once. He was saying the prayers with the rest of the congregation... in Hebrew!

Who could run against Nelson with a chance to beat him?

Jeb could have but he is VERY tired.... and then there is Columba.

Charlie Crist and Bill McCollum have races.

Toni Jennings could have been either Senator or Governor but didn't get a war chest started nearly early enough.

Glenda Hood is gone.

Tom Feeney; way too early.

Andy Crenshaw; too early.

Joe Scarborough; has another great job.

Foley; personal problems.

KH; Dems have taken a blood oath to defeat her. For them it's 2000 vindicated. ... and she is helping them.

I worry that we will not win FL this year.

Got any suggestions?

Alan Bense might be a good prospect (speaker of the Florida House) but he's short on name recognition. He has a great rags-to-riches story behind him. Time is fast running out.

You are doing a thorough job of defending Nelson and minimizing Harris every single day, every chance you get. With FRiends like you, the rest of the Dems can relax. You are doing all of their work for them.

Hey CHICKEN LITTLE, defeatists never win !

Nelson's wife is not in the Senate - so she is nice -
Laura Bush is nice too, but that does not help Dubya's low poll numbers one bit !

So Nelson speaks a little Hebrew, BIG DEAL .

I would say their vote is overrated anyways(~ Florida Jews voted for Buchanan in Nov. 2000, did he win ? NO ! )

With this attitude in Messychusetts, no wonder that state's GOP never wins there !
