Florida’s Senate race remains all about Republican-turned-independent Charlie Crist and likely GOP nominee Marco Rubio.
The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey of Likely Voters in Florida finds the two candidates neck-and-neck again this month, with Rubio earning 36% support and Crist, the state’s current Republican governor, capturing 34% of the vote. Prospective Democratic candidate Kendrick Meek remains a distant third, picking up 15%. Fourteen percent (14%) of the state’s voters remain undecided... http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_content/politics/elections/election_2010/election_2010_senate_elections/florida/election_2010_florida_senate

2. Dems will likely break for Crist. An Independant.

Essentially a 3rd party candidate will take the win.

5. The Repubs are freaking out about Crist.. I would not be surprised by anything they might try..
They know this could be a major momentum shift if Crist is seen as having locked this up.

6. Crist is calling for a special session to ban offshore drilling... that will be a win/win for Crist
Win if he gets it on the ballot... or win if the Repugs come out against him...

7. Yeah, I think Cirst is making all the right moves and will likely win this but...
we should never underestimate the evil genius of the GOP. I suspect they have a few nasty cards up their sleaves.

13. That is the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard in my life...
Hopefully democrats will do to Rubi what Republicans in CT did to Lamont. We already have the non-canidate on the ticket.


To keep Rubi out of the senate we need to stay on the same page.

15. Rubi will not win a general election
Crisp will be harder to beat.

I'm funny, I am pulling for the Dem. Always. Ridiculous me, eh?

10. he also seems to be softening his anti-gay stance which is good
considering he is a closeted gay man.

12. Yeah, there have been at least 3 recent polls with Crist leading by double digits..
This Rasmussen poll is an outlier... or maybe just a "lier".
