51. A Dem anything in Florida can most likely be a DINO.

This is the state where Debbie Wasserman-Schultz, DINO head of the DNC, both campaigned for GOP buddies, and sat out and refused to campaign for Dems because they were running against her GOP buddies.

The Democratic party reeks of self-serving Third Way, down here. And with Debbie deciding who gets support and who does not (she works very closely with the Florida Democratic party), that old admonition to elect progressives is pretty much useless, except at a very local level. Debbie is now pushing a guy for Rubio's seat who was not even a Democrat until about 2012, and only switched so he could run against the GOP incumbent. And the Florida progressive Caucus was threatened with disbandment or something when they objected to this guy and wanted a Progressive to run. That's what Florida is like now. DINO country.
