...in the latest Rasmussen survey of Florida voter preferences for the
general election, 38% to 34%.

Rubio, of course, has the Republican primary locked.

The Democrat in the general election race hasn't the name recognition
yet
of Rubio or Crist.

Could be the most interesting general election in the country this
fall,
with Rubio getting the hard-right mindless conservative voters, Crist
pulling moderate Republicans and some Indys and Dems, and maybe
winning,
or spoiling Rubio's chances, giving the Dem the edge.

I don't have a horse in the Florida U.S. Senate race, but if Crist or
the
Dem beat Rubio, it'll be a slam on the mindless right, and *that* can
only
be good for America.

Crist is at least somewhat centrist.



Certainly more than Rubio. I'm no fan of Crist, but I'd rather see hijm
in
the Senate than Rubio, a goose-stepping conservative.

Interestingly, even Rubio is not in favor of the Arizona bs.



Rubio is trying to regain the support of the latino community that
used to be solidly in the GOP corner.
They are generally right in lock step with the righteous right.

dinner right after they finish their hotel maid job.
