Since lying is a given, Republicans should vote for cloture and lie about stopping socialism in its tracks, instead of falsely taking credit for what they voted against.

Makes me want to move to Florida just so I can vote for her.

It would be a significant brightening of a dark time if she can send him into early retirement and on to a position with the Faux commentariat.

She did well in the impeachment hearings. Smart, well-spoken, thoughtful - unfortunately that kind of thing doesn’t seem to count for much these days.
On the other hand, her reason for running makes me add passionate to the adjectives, and if handled well, that can make a difference. Here’s hoping we get to wave buh-bye to little Marco.

Valiant, but doomed.
We’re talking about Florida, after all. All those sweet little grandmas and grandpas eating their early bird special dinners at 4:30 pm will be frightened shitless by the Angry Black Woman.

I dunno, the law enforcement history should help her in Florida with the oldies. She was the Chief of Police in Orlando and I think her hubby is still in LE.

I wish her all the best!!! She is one of my favorite Congressperson and can do anything she wants. More important is she is 100% for this country!

She’s smart and tough - Rubio is neither. I follow her on Twitter and her messaging is excellent. She will tie Trump and McConnell around Rubio’s neck and paint him as the weak-ass Trumplican collaborator he actually is.

That’s gonna “strike a nerve” with Marco.

Just did the Google and he was most recently president of the Florida Sheriff’s Association and is currently mayor of Orange County (Orlando). That should definitely be a big help to her, especially if the FL GOP is still grappling with this Gaetz/Greenberg scandal next year which may go beyond those two. I absolutely adore her and I’m thrilled she’s running.

That is just hysterical. A fucking laugh riot.

It’s sort of sad the pinnacle of your professional career might be spent lobbying the Federal government to take care of Floridians.
