Which Democrat is more competitive against Rick Scott?

[LeBron]

Well roughly 85% still don't know enough about Nan Rich to vote for her, but if she did pull an upset in the primary, while she's not as well-funded, she would still do better among her liberal base and should still be able to win indies against a criminal, so she would win. Crist despite a lot of aggression, everyone knows who he is most lefties will just bite their tongue and vote for him anyways over the Green candidate. He's off to a terrible start, though he would have the better chance of dethroning the now "pro-Medicaid", anti-computer, voting purger. Pick your flip-flopper.

Despite his fiscal conservatism and terrible stances on immigration, guns and separation of church and state, I know I would vote for him. Not in the primary of course, but for the general, hey, he's the best Florida's going to get for now and he'll at least be term-limited again after another 4 years.

So many things wrong with this - first, of course, is that Crist can run for re-election in 2018. Florida law limits one to two consecutive gubernatorial terms. But to get to the main point - people don't know Nan Rich. They sure as hell know Rick Scott. And yet, despite all the allegations of being a criminal, he's still crushing Rich. Rich simply doesn't have the money, name recognition, or political skill to go against Scott and expect to win. At this point, Crist is our only hope.

I covered most of what you said already in bold. I was stunned myself when I looked at the last Quinnipiac survey with her polled and showed nearly 9 in 10 Floridians didn't know anything about her. Rich was polling in the mid to low 30s while Scott had a ceiling of about 40-41. If we just take the last Quinnipiac poll since it's the most recent and most reliable, Scott only led Rich 41-37 and that's with 19% of FL Democrats who were undecided or wouldn't vote and low #'s of Republican undecided's. Given, most of those Dem undecided would go to Rich and she's a bit of a turnoff as is for moderates given she's the most liberal candidate out of all of them.

Like Crist/Scott, it's a simple pick of Floridians of "the worst of the 2" and who you guys would rather have as your Governor. Scott's recent small success with his Lt. Governor pick or his high fundraising numbers are the only things going good for him so far. He's vulnerable against Rich or Crist, but I think we can all agree that Crist has a better chance.
