9. I should have Governor Gwen Graham right now

No question she would have defeated the joke Ron DeSantis.

Look, I like Andrew Gillum's passion and articulation on the talk shows. But it was world class stupidity for the Sanders wing to force Gillum as our nominee in 2018, given the makeup of the Florida electorate during midterms. It was always going to be older and more conservative than presidential years.

Nominating Gillum not only exploded the socialism topic it likely took down Bill Nelson as well in the senate race. All the fundamentals favored our side, as DemocratSinceBirth posted here and elsewhere numerous times. Only nominating someone who was rejected by 46& of Florida voters as too liberal for the state absolutely threw away that edge in fundamentals. Gillum already had the Tallahassee FBI situation hovering over him.

Rachel Bitecofer and other Dunces of Turnout tried to pretend that ideology didn't matter, that waves of youth would push Gillum easily over the top.

I won't be unhappy if this ends Gillum's career opportunity on a statewide level. Those statewide races are run during midterm years. We'd win a hell of a lot more races nationwide if those governorships,etc. could be switched to presidential years.
