Florida in 2016

Republicans can win without Florida.  They can run the table depending on the political environment.

Republicans "can" win without Florida in the same way Democrats "can" win without California.

Are you guys crazy? If he runs against Hillary, he will be glad to win Utah and Wyoming!

I was mocking the stupid pundits.
