2. Jesus Christ's brother?

3. Is that a duck face pose? Other than that he might be able to win.

Overall not a bad Repuke to Dem conversion.

I hope there is a good competitive primary. Just don't pick another "trial lawyer" like McBride. What a disappointment in the debates....

4. If he can win YES .

5. I could live with this and would be happy if he did run..n/t

6. Of mixed minds.

I came to Florida during Jeb, and I can honestly say Charlie was the only Florida governor I actually liked. Even as a Republican, which explains why he couldn’t stay one in the end.

I certainly like him as a Democratic congressman.

On the other hand, he lost in his Senate race and lost running against Scott for Governor, so I worry the response from the public would be an indifferent “Been there, done that.” It’s very hard being a retread in politics.

I still think the inside track belongs to Nikki Fried who is the only statewide elected Dem. She’s not my very favorite but I’ll gladly work to replace DeSantis with her.

Senate against Rubio will be Val Demings. Mark my words.

11. Lawton Chiles was Governor when we moved here.

Even taking into account our newness to the climate, it was like a different planet then than now.

13. I just missed Walkin' Lawton.

We have to have a break one of these days. We’re due.

15. Walkin Lawton...

7. He's had the job before. This would make it the second coming of Christ.

I'm all for it.

[MoonRiver]

9. Lol, good one!

[cwydro]

10. It's Crist.

[tinrobot]

18. Second coming of Crist, then.

Still works.

8. He has more charisma than DeSantis.

DeSantis should be worried. But of course, my coffee table has more charisma than DeDantis.

[Chainfire]

12. This is Florida. DeSantis will pick his own primary challenger.

[cwydro]

14. Crist. nt

16. 'I'm opening my brain to it.' Lol, strange words out of the mouth

of a former Republican. Not just the concept of an open mind, the choice of words themselves.

I once read that a lot of FL pols have switched parties over the years but that the switches were the other way -- Democratic to Republican. And virtually all were conservative Dems anyway, part of the mass migration of southern conservatives who took over the GOP.

Maybe it'll mean folk in Florida are at least a little more opened to a switch than those in other states, though.

17. If he's our candidate, I'll work to get him elected.

Death Sentence has got to go.
