Whomever it is would be smart to seriously look at him as a potential candidate. I know there are supposed rumors about his sexuality - but I've got to think if there was anything of substance, it would have been released by now. I know some DUers would balk at the idea of having a former Republican on the ticket ... and yet, his popularity in Florida is sound. He could lock that state up and locking up Florida pretty much guarantees whomever the Dems nominate a victory - whether it's Hillary or Elizabeth Warren or Martin O'Malley.
