Crist needs to get his sorry liberal a$$ out of the race so it will be a landslide for Rubio. Crist probably just running to insure a Democrat victory.

Hope Rubio doesn't let this latest poll make him feel invincible. It ain't over til it's over! I still wouldn't count out a 3AM call from Obama to Meek or Crist to drop out for something more lucrative in the "Adminstration".

I expect State Media headline: “Rubio with a narrow lead”. Alternatively, “dead heat in FL” or “Crist in strong position”

If no one reaches 50%, does Florida law require a runoff?

I love that Rubio will still be able to hand Crists ass to him. Making gutless decisions to further your political future should end in humiliation. Go Rubio.

I hope Rubio is what he says he is and isn't just saying what people want to hear to gain office. Color me cynical.....

Sadly, 30% is strong for such a miserable husk.

Rubio needs to stay on his message.. even if he sounds like a doll when his string gets pulled.. he definitely has his spiel down.. hopefully enough folks will be stable on their meds and respond accordingly.

Charlie , go fishing.. or sumthin’.

and Meeks.. Meeks ? lolol

he’s no Alvin Greene,, but that may be a good thing in this one.

And never rule out those boxes of “found ballots” sitting in the trunks of dem operatives.

Crist is angling for a post in the Obama administration. He will probably drop out and support Meek to get it. Maybe he could get a Czar job. Of what I do not know.

I think he is a marked improvement, but not a world beater.

Sort of like Scott Brown taking “Kennedy’s seat”.

A glass half full, which beats empty.

I think there was only one. It was trumpeted over and over by the Obamacrat Media.
