Really? Didn't he start his own party? He just quit running for president too.

He is a strange bird indeed. His followers seem as culty as LaRuouchies.

I suspect it's gonna be Murphy. I find Grayson unacceptable on character grounds alone.

Rubio should be able to trounce any of them, unfortunately. However it might depend how bad the Zika crisis gets. That cuts across party lines and younger women (including upper middle class women in the GOP base) in particular are starting to panic about it, justifiably so. So Rubio's re cent reiteration of opposition to abortion even for Zika-infected pregnant women is not going to sit well with his moderate republican suburban professional base if Zika gets out of hand.

I suspect Zika has not been factored in to this election yet.
