Like with Ohio, Florida is becoming more Republican. It seem more likely the Democrats are going to have a sacrificial lamb.
Ron DeSantis, the controversial Republican governor of Florida is likely to get a second term. Even though the state of Florida has the worst outbreak of COVID-19, the white nationalist governor has officially ended all restrictions and mask mandates. He is citing the vaccinations being available statewide as a reason to stop the CDC recommendations.
Florida continued to move forward despite the pandemic killing over 24,000 Floridians.
Florida should be a place where hard work is rewarded, justice is equal, and opportunity is right in front of you. That's a Florida for all — and that's why I'm running for Governor.

Rep. Charlie Crist (D-FL) is running for governor again. He was then the Republican governor of Florida before he left the office. Crist said that the racist attacks against Barack Obama and their refusal to greenlight rapid rail in the state were reasons for him to leave the party. He would run for the U.S. Senate as an independent candidate and was defeated by Marco Rubio. He ran for governor again in 2012 to take on Rick Scott as a Democrat and lost. Now this would be his third time running for governor. The Republicans already are exploiting this.
Kellyanne Conway, the former White House advisor who gets embarrassed by her own daughter Claudia already pointed out his failures. Even DeSantis mocked Crist for being a three time losing candidate. DeSantis on Tuesday brushed aside Crist’s challenge by joking "which party is he going to run under?" After noting he sides with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), DeSantis suggested that Crist should be running as a Green Party candidate instead of as a Democrat.
A fool's errand.

Charlie Crist, [lately] a Florida Democrat, will run against @RonDeSantisFL for governor. https://t.co/vZbyjEpgTx
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) on Rep. Charlie Crist (D-FL), a former Republican, running for governor:

He is the current U.S. Representative from St. Petersburg and Clearwater. He is among one of three potential candidates who may take on DeSantis in 2022.
Rep. Val Demings (D-FL) and Nikki Fried are also potential contenders for governor. They have not made official nominations yet. However, Crist is the first high profile member to run for governor.
Crist is going to tag DeSantis to Matt Gaetz and Washed Up 45. |
Crist, however, did not mention his fellow Democrats during his kick-off speech in St. Petersburg. Instead he took aim at DeSantis and Republicans as out of touch and unfeeling in helping Floridians during the more than year-long pandemic. He gave his speech ahead of five-day statewide tour he is launching to publicize his latest run.
"This is a governor who doesn't listen, who doesn't care, and doesn't think about you — unless of course you can write a campaign check," Crist said. "Really, he sees our state’s wonderful diversity as a threat, not a strength we all celebrate. He's failed to lead during the greatest health and economic crisis of our lifetime."
He also said that DeSantis — a potential 2024 presidential contender — was more interested in his "personal political fortunes" and linked him to Washed Up 45 as someone "who always takes credit but never takes responsibility."
I remember Crist when I went to Florida back in 2007 to see the CNN/YouTube Republican debate. I remember meeting Crist when he was then governor of Florida. I also met Chuck Norris, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney and Ron Paul when they were just Republicans. Now they are full fledge white nationalists and extremists.
I met Anderson Cooper as well. He had to moderate that trainwreck.
Democrats have a tough fight ahead. They will be going against a governor who is desperate. |
I loved being in Tampa and St. Petersburg. I will hopefully move to Florida someday. But in the meantime, I'll stay in Ohio.
Anyway, Florida was once considered the biggest prize in the "Swing State" sweepstakes. It appears that Florida, Ohio and Iowa are moving away from swing state to solid Republican.
Washed Up 45 and Republicans are wrangling on a message to win back voters. They're primarily invested in culture wars and white nationalism.
They are trying to turn the page on the insurrection and the "big lie."
Expect DeSantis to play the same bullshit like Washed Up 45 if he does lose the election. Right now I have Ohio, Florida and Texas as SAFE REPUBLICAN in the 2022 U.S. Midterm elections.
