He is young, rich, and an enthusiastic liberal. I think his youth, like Gillum's, will appeal to young voters. Plus he's got lots of business experience so that's a plus. He's Orlando-based, and as always, the I4 corridor is key in FL politics.

I was hoping he'd pick Gwen Graham but I'm feeling like this is a good choice. Plus, they've got great spouses and seriously cute kids!
