Hmmmm, let's try it this way. Please look at this link and show me where Florida is a blue state. It looks as red as a steak before going on the grill.

What happened to the "data" that you noted? Yes, Florida is leaning Republican particularly this year, but it's a bad year for the Dems. This article is talking about Trump's relatively limited success in Florida (basically he marginally won it with 51%), but you in fact told me to ignore the Presidential election cycles.

I think this is in line with the title.

It seems like fivethirtyeight keeps moving the odds every day towards the Republicans. The House will be lost if there aren't any unexpected events. Control of the Senate is getting more and more in reach for the Republicans.

What is interesting the Dems only have to defend 14 seats out of 35 in play this November. And yet, the probability is that the Republicans will win the Senate or it will be a 50/50 split. So one might say, great VP Harris will break ties. But hold on a minute, Manchin and Sinema are not two automatic votes for progressive legislation. Also, we know Senators stray from the party line when the party has suffered a recent electoral setback. Call it a course correction for these Democrat Senators especially those on the ballot in 2024.

I think you are forcing the point about red strong hold. DeSantis won the 2018 Florida Governor's race 49.6% to Gillum 49.2% (definitely not a moderate). He's solidified his popularity through his first term.

There's an odd and bizarre strategy both parties seem to be employing in competitive states. The state candidates start to sound a lot like the national party. In the recent past, Florida Democrats won elections and were considered moderates on Capital Hill. Now you might think current Gubernatorial candidate Charlie Christ is a moderate, but he's known for being an opportunist who has recently has had to acquiesce to the Left.

By the way, most of the media thinks Democrats always win the debate. If you hear the things you want to here from a candidate, you're going to be influenced by your views. Donald Trump did well in some debates and did poorly in others. He never sounded like the rogue that he was. Even Biden performed fairly well in the 2020 debates even if he sounded too scripted to me.

Rubio didn't really have to "win" the debate. He just needed to do an adequate job. I presume he didn't have a lapse where he repeated himself five times. Rubio is not a dynamic debater. I will actually watch the DeSantis-Crist debate. I think DeSantis will be a good debater and he's clearly a national candidate. Crist is no slouch either.

I don't watch the debates outside my state. It seems like social media is flooded with all these liberal Monday morning quarterbacks declaring a debate victory for the Democrat.

The problem is these debate victories aren't showing up in the poll trends. Is it possible that a lot of these social media warriors are just hype artists. People wouldn't do that, would they?

Anyhoo, you probably can tell I am not of fan of pundits left or right telling me what happened. If you like being told what happened, that's cool but Rubio is going to cruise to victory in a fairly competitive state.

These are your replies, where is the presidential election discussed? The link I provided included Presidential data but also contained other races which lead back to our conversation but now you decide to pull a JC move and deflect to Presidential.

My point is, Florida is a red state and Republican incumbents have an upper hand.

As JC says, STAY on topic!!!

There is a lot more to Canada than just Toronto. I don't even think I have the entire pulse of the United States living in one large American city.

I know for sure from frequent visits to Canada that in general Canadians don't carry the anti-American sentiment that you carry around. It infects all your thinking about the American polity loudly and clearly.

Don't confuse an anti-rump view with being anti-American.
Just as you shouldn't assume I'm only around Toronto.
