Hawkins ran against Bob Grahm and lost by a comfortable margin.
Much like Graham, Nelson has his own machine that can function independent of any Democrat conections or financing.
We have to be honest and face facts. Nelson is VERY well seated and has the option of phoning in this race from a vaction spot in the bahamas. It is his to loose.
That said, Harris has 30 days to do SOMETHING DRAMATIC.
Absent a hail marry pass, I don't see how she can shift votes.
Pehaps as a member of the MAJORITY she can say she can do more for social security than Nelson as a member of the minority out of power party.
So tell me why did Nelson hastily agree to debate her then. Or why the minute she won the primary, Nelson attended a fundraiser at some lib's residence.
I think Nelson is concerned because he knows that all of the FL media hit pieces on Harris has energized conservatives, plus the fact that top Republicans are now going to bat for her.

Oh c'mon man, he is just a one time senator, though he has been elected to lower office several times .
Harris has made some impressive(though not decisive)gains in recent polls after the primaries .
She is polling within eight points of Nelson who is not about to go below 50% - - not good at all for him !
He he goes on a vacation now, HE WILL LOSE ! !
If goes out and really campaigns, he will win . . .
