OK, now that the last REAL Democrat from Florida has been forced out

Can we just build a wall across the top of the panhandle and separate that corrupt penis looking state from the country once and for all?

2. I'm a huge Grayson fan but there are still a few REAL Dems here-

not many but a few. Debbie Wasserman Schultz for one- even though she made me furious during the Presidental election. Ron Klein is another one. As was Wexler but he's no longer in Congress so I guess that doesn't count.

Thanks.

4. As long as Dappleganger, flvegan, Atticus (I think) and a bunch of other good DUers

can escape first.

And please, when you come for Arizona, let me out first, too?

6. Oh, of course we would let them relocate first

I don't blame them for the Bush Crime Family and the DLC thoroughly corrupting their state.

5. A democratic party of one isn't very effective - maybe we should keep some of your fake ones

9. Well, at least that would keep Rubio busy

He could command the Batista fan club militias against them "invading commie bastards".

12. They would be so pissed off to see those troops arriving. It would be classic.

13. IMO Democrats have a huge future in FL, whose minority populations are growing. Just don't

Just don't split the Florida party agian, don't humiliate minority candidates anymore, and defend Social Security/Medicare fiercely against privatization, and we may be OK there.

On minority vote potential: Hispanics are 14 percent of the electorate, growing, mostly non-Cuban, and even younger Cubans are far less likely to be Republicans than their over-65s:
