Uh, disappointment will abound. So they were counting on billy nelson holding his seat to take over the senate? Stumble my butt. This hopefully will be a full up face plant. I know there are some FL FReepers who will NOT vote for Scott though.

I am in Florida. Nelson’s ads say he’s an Independent.

Term limit - getting voted out of office.

Bill Nelson has been around a LONG time. Time and past time to be gone.

Hope we start seeing polling on Tester, Heitcamp, Brown and Manchin. Also, I understand that Menendez is inside the MOE on his polling. With 25 RATs up in the Senate, the law of averages should give us at least a half dozen seats.

He has been virtually invisible on the campaign trail.

When Rick Scott outclasses you, you don’t have a problem.
You ARE a problem.

Note to the GOP-e.
This is how you win an election.
Robo-calls and mailers are pointless.
Its time to move out of the 19th Century.

Nelson is 75, had prostrate cancer surgery in 2015 and is running for his 4th term. Should have retired, but glad he’s running, a easy GOP pickup.

I don’t trust Rick Scott as far as I can throw a Space Shuttle, but I’m glad Nelson’s time appears to be coming to an end.

This is largely an extract of a Politico article which is here.

Mr. Moran has an ongoing tendency to 'borrow' material from other authors.

Any “hopes” Democrats had were fake just as they are. Rs take 11 D seats. I stand by that prediction

Rick Scott will win the GOP Primary tomorrow in a landslide.

Scott will have the momentum to take out Bill Nelson in November.

I expect Ron DeSantis to be the GOP Governor candidate when the primary votes are counted tomorrow.

Together, Ron DeSantis and Rick Scott will keep Florida a Trump State in 2020.

I want to see Menendez go down. He should be in prison for corruption.

Even the Dems know he's corrupt and there is zero enthusiasm for him in NJ. If Hugin can get some excitement generated he could pull it out.

Hugin is pretty far left for a Republican, but he's still light years ahead of Menendez. And he's a Marine.

The Senate was NEVER in play... anyone who told you this either is completely ignorant, or a flat out liar... even the most basic understanding of US politics could look at the fall and tell you there is NO chance of the Dems taking the Senate... In fact, the most likely possibility is that the R’s will gain seats in the Senate. Personally I expect 6+ gain for the the GOP in the senate.

The house is a different issue, but the Senate was never in play.

The dude has underserved Florida for so long. Never should have been elected in the first place.

It’s way past the time that Nelson should have been weaned from the government teat.

Nelson has been useless for decades...

They could put a cardboard cutout in his Senate seat and nobody would notice...
