McCollum will not be a drag on the ticket for Marco Rubio as would have been the unelectable Rick Scott(Sorry Erick). The democrats were just itching to SINK their teeth in him(pun not intended ; you make the call.)
I´m assuming McCollum will win ,but as Yogi said, “It´s not over until it´s over.”
Meek will assure that Marco will grab a lead after primary day and not look back at the quickly fading Charlie Crist.

“Choose the most conservative candidate in the primary who can win in November.”, William F. Buckley Jr.

You think Scott is unelectable? I voted for him by absentee ballot before the Tallahassee incident. I think McCollum is unelectable because he’s lost twice statewide and has basically no personality. Also, I’m concerned about his fundraising ability.

Then again, Scott has a bad business record, as it turns out, and a temper to boot.

Basically, I don’t know whom to vote for. This is a race the GOP should not lose. Florida is one of the most Republican states in the nation at the state level, and we have two democrats to split the anti-conservative vote.

Huckabee is taking credit for Nathan Deal’s victory over Karen Handel. Huckabee likes to see himself as a King Maker. Huckabee will campaign for McCollum.

Also Haley Barbour’s RGA is backing McCollum over Rick Scott. The RGA feels that Rick Scott is over the line in attacking McCollum.

The polls are all over the place in the FL Gov primary. Some have McCollum in the lead. Other have Scott leading. The primary has been brutal.

The Gov races in GA and WY were heated and headed into recount territory. But the losers in the primaries declined recounts and rallied around the winner.

If either McCollum or Scott win by less than 1%, I could the both of them suing each other over a recount over the primary results thus eanbling Alexa Sink to win the general election.

Let’s see….hadn’t been that long ago that he hugged Crist. Careful Marco he’ll be huggin you next! The guy is a hugign’ fool depending on whichever way the wind blows.

CSX railroad gave McCollum’s 527 $25K the day (2 wks ago) that McCollum told the Lakeland Republican Club that “The Governor’s Office is not for sale.” (in addition to $$ already donated to McCollum’s campaign directly and $$$$ donated to the RPOF, to be spent on McCollum’s campaign.) That’s the same CSX that got $641M from taxpayers in a sweetheart deal RR track sale – the most expensive rail sale in the history of American rail sales, at $10.5 million/mile, compared to the national average of $700,000/mile. And the lobbying firm that brokered the deal between Florida Dept of Transportation and CSX, and who heavily influenced legislators to vote for changing state law to allow a for-profit corporation to pass its accident liability onto the taxpayers — a deal-breaker demanded by CSX — was the SAME lobbying firm/law firm that McCollum worked for when he was in-between elected offices (lobbying for bank corporations). Oh, and Atty. Gen. McCollum approved the deal and the legislation making taxpayers liable for CSX’s accidents on the shared freight/commuter rail corridor. And who was the head lobbyist on the CSX deal? John Thrasher of Jacksonville (headquarters of CSX), now a Senator and now the chairman of the Republican Party of Florida.

And by the way, the freight traffic that will be diverted from the commuter rail corridor through Orlando will be coming through Lakeland on its way to — and back from — the Intermodal Logistics Center (aka, Mother of all Rail Yards) that the taxpayers are building for CSX in Winter Haven (another CSX stipulation). The additional freight traffic will destroy Lakeland’s carefully revitalized downtown district. Lotta nerve McCollum had, saying that to the Lakelanders, who were clueless but starry-eyed because McCollum knew Reagan.

That’s the only position I can take in this sickening race.

Sure would be nice to have someone to like.

But then, I’ve been voting against Dem presidential candidates since 1988, so I’m used to this depressing nonsense.

About 3 weeks ago, I had settled on Scott. Now I’m back to undecided (I still like Scott’s 7-7-7 plan though).

On Tuesday I have to decide which crap sammich I’m going to eat come November. Yay!
