FL-Gov: Who's a stronger GE candidate?

[Meatball Ron]

I agree with most of the previous posts on here but, my god, they are both so weak.

If FL Dems were really playing to win this cycle, the two statewide candidates should have been some subset of DMP, Stephanie Murphy, and Demings - all three of those would (and in Demings' case, will) be way stronger than Crist and Fried.

What's interesting is that I assume Fried had to have been a somewhat strong candidate / campaigner to win in '18 given no other statewide Dems did (maybe I am missing something, like a flaw with her opponent?) She should be trying to just replicate that message / strategy rather than this bizarre extremely online resister style campaign.

Fried is the Democratic equivalent of Kelly Ward running for statewide office.

Crist is the Floridian equivalent of Martha McSally running for office, except that he has switched parties multiple times and thus is a spectacular flip flopper, akin to a pancake.

Both are abysmal candidates, but better to lose safe (Crist) than to lose sorry (Fried).

If Crist wins the nomination, I can already see a line from the debates.

DeSantis: You offer flip flops, I offer (property) tax breaks.

Lol - great line from an old JibJab video
