So What's A Florida Democrat To Do
In the irony of ironies it appears the Democratic Senate candidate can't win and can only siphon enough votes from Charlie Crist to elect the darling of the Teabaggers and Jeb Bush, Marco Rubio.


Marco Rubio must be stopped.

1. It's a dilemma all right, and I agree with your point.
Rubio is so scary a prospect, I may have to throw myself on the sword and go for Charlie. Florida politics suck.

5. Like Joe Lieberman, who promised he'd caucus with the Dems?
Still waiting for that ...

3. Looks like Meek will be the nominee, thank goodness..
but even with a solid win over the scumbag bilionaire Greene tomorrow, I doubt that will help Mr Meek in November. Its a real conundrum.. but to me the most important decision factor is keeping Rubio out.

7. Yes, you are probably correct, but Greene is a total fake and scoundrel.
I could never wish for someone like him to win no matter what.

6. One of the worst in memory
Between the local races, and the state wide races, it's the biggest collection of nit wits, twits, and dim bulbs I've ever seen on a ballot. I'm gonna have to shower after this thing, and then we'll head towards the general election. Between the Greere mess and the Crist switch, you'd think the Dems coulda found a decent Senate candidate.

10. I have to go with Crist
Against everything I have said in the past 10 years but He will be the best for the Country and for Florida. Rubio is a nightmare and Meek just doesn't cut it with me
