DeSantis won in a Dem wave yr by .5 and all polls showed him losing to Gwen Graham let's take things in perspective he beat Andrew Gilliam, an Afro American socialist and he had a scandal, not Charlie Crist and Crist lost narrowly in a R wave yr in 2014, +5R yr
Crist and Fried were leading in polls 53/47% before Afghanistan withdrawal, we can get back to that when D Build Back Better Agend is passed, it's wave insurance but don't underestimate Crist or Demings
This is why I still think the race is winnable for Democrats, especially if there is another variant this time next year that causes the deaths to spike. Sorry, but this is reality. DeSantis has been pretty reckless on the PR, but as others have said, he very well might pull it out despite that. No politician should be above criticism. I get the trump supporters see him as the heir apparent (and they do), but is it really worth it when people are dropping right and left?
