15. As my friend who lives in Florida says, Dems have to be almost perfect to win anything down there...

And even if they are, DeathSantis will FIND enough votes to pull little Marco across the line. He has a friend whose still in politics (My friend is long retired), and he said the friend told him that they are going to SMEAR Val something awful and take apart her husband with LIES. Yeah, she has NO chance down there in DeathSantisville, the place where the right-winged governor is head of the new KKK, anti gay and who wields power in that state like Stalin. Poor Val. IMHO, she has NO chance. NONE. God, I'd love to be wrong, but I don't think I will be.

My friend in his 70's said for all the flak Grayson got from his own party, look at the "pure, racist, treasonous filth" Rick Scott and most GQP'ers are. My friend is 100% correct. Rick Scott's gotten away with stealing a billion plus from Medicare. Scott should be in jail. Bet a Dem would have been in jail, but no Dem would have done that. The GQP US Taliban party gets away with more and more seemingly by the day. You have Herschel Walker running for Senator from Ga., you have a murderer from Indiana running for office out of Indiana in jail, you have people guilty of treason running to keep their seats, even though they still don't think Biden is President, and they were involved in tRump's Jan. 6th civil insurrection, and you have a pedophile still sitting in the Congress in Matt Gaetz, along with enabler Gym Jordan. SMDH.

We unfortunately don't have a functioning press either. They are all mostly corporate entities and love big ad dollars that tReasonous tRump bought into their coffers.

Yeah, pass on that one. Tommy Carcetti Jun 2022 #1
