Safe R, no matter what. Why do Florida House Democrats keep throwing away their congressional careers and incumbency for Sisyphean attempts to get elected statewide in this wasteland?
At least in regards to Demings & Crist, they're both 64 years old with 14+ years of public service & in the middle of the pack when it comes to seniority. I don't expect either to be in DC that much longer anyway so I don't know what they've got to lose by running statewide.
Better those two than Murphy or Fried, IMO. The latter two you can certainly argue are throwing away their political careers should they be nominated.
