Really? Crist is winning this poll, you guys are masochists.
To be fair, Alex Sink also hasn't won an election since 2006, and Grayson/DWS wouldn't win an election, so...
Sink has lost one very close statewide election and one very close house race in that time; both times as a Democrat.
The latter one in a district that voted for Obama twice and Sink once, and where she outspent her opponent by a significant margin.
Crist has lost in two statewide landslides as a Republican and Independent, and again as a Democrat in a very close election against one of the most corrupt, reviled, and unnervingly awkward people in politics.
They aren't even comparable. Crist is the definiton of "can't take a hint"..
You're going to count Crist's run against Graham back in the 90s? lol. And calling his loss to Rubio a 'landslide' is overstating it - flow all Meek's voters to Crist and Crist wins. Admittedly that's a flawed premise because of the impact that would have had on turnout and the tone of the campaigns, but it's not fair to call it a landslide when his half of the electorate was split between two candidates. I prefer to look at it as Crist beating out the established candidate of a major party.
1. In a special election in a March in an off year.
2. I see this as a fault of the democratic party because in all reality, they should've put all of their support behind Meek.
