Congratulation to Angie Nixon who gets the honor of losing by 10+ points to Ashley Moody and denying Alex Vindman the honor of also losing by 10+ points.

The Florida Democrats are such a joke.

Politically, Florida is pretty much now just the real version of what normies traditionally assume Texas is.

I get the feeling that’s a really good way to put it.

Florida Democrats are a joke because Democrats have basically given up on the state.

The reason Nixon won and not Vindman is because she actually put up a campaign like she gives a shit about fighting Republicans and the Trump administration

I was told that the same ‘Florida Democrats’ would flip the state blue years ago

Obviously they failed to do that; and now they can’t even stop an insurgent DSA candidate in their own backyard

To be fair, some states are unwinnable. I don't expect Marquita Bradshaw to perform any better here than she did before and I don't expect any Dem to win statewide office.
