TALLAHASSEE, Fla. —

Democratic Rep. Alan Grayson is running for the Florida Senate seat that Republican Marco Rubio is giving up to run for president.

Grayson made the announcement on Thursday.

"This is the it campaign of 2016. Just like Elizabeth Warren was the it campaign in her race," Grayson said. "I'm going to be running a Barack Obama style campaign. I am going to try and wake up and electrify the electorate with all the good we can do for each other."

When WFTV asked Grayson how he is going to win, he replied, "By being the champion for a raise for seniors, for expanding Medicare, for being a champion for paid sick leave, and for seeing that everybody who is sick can see a doctor and get the care they need to stay healthy and alive. These are the issues. As soon as you start talking about the issues, people realize I'm the right person for the job."

That psyho needs to be locked up in a rubber room. Perhaps with Bruce Caitlyn Jenner and Al Sharpton. Throw in Hillary Clinton to run the show, like nurse Ratchet.

I didn’t know that Rubio is giving up his Seat to run for POTUS. Is that a Florida Law or did he make that decision?

What a waste of time since he won’t make the Cut and we certainly cannot afford to lose any Senate Seats, even RINO Senate Seats.
