Quote HistoryQuoted:
Desantis is already stepping away from Trump in regards the influx of Puerto Ricans. And so is Scott. If you truly believe that Rick Scott is not a fairweather politician. I got news for you. Marco Rubio was to be the TEA Party darling. A champion of American Conservatism and Small Government Ideals. Rick Scott is much the same way. Say what you will about Rubio, but he supported the tax cuts, 99% of Trump's nominees, and repealing Obamacare. Scott will be just as reliable, if not better. Scott is our best chance to defeat Nelson since he was elected in 2000, and we need Scott in the Senate to help with the GOP majority and to give them some margin for tough 2020 and 2022 maps. Why do people want to make this so difficult? |

Which Florida politician is directly responsible for enacting the laws that are presently flipping Florida, with its Republican Supermajority in both houses of the state legislature as well as the governorship, from The Gunshine State to becoming The Gunban State?
A) Nelson B) Scott Which Florida politician is trying to demonstrate to his fellow Republicans in state government that pandering to the liberal gun grabbers while at the same time betraying their conservative firearms owning, 2nd amendment supporting, base, is the sound political strategy moving forward?

OK, I took a few days off to think about the choice between gun grabber #1 or gun grabber #2.
I'll be leaving that spot on the ballot BLANK. No more compromising principles. Rick Scott needs to give me a reason to support him, not be the lessor of two evils. |

If you are not voting for Scott, you are voting for Elizabeth Warren and Claire McCaskill picking the next appointee to the SC. 18-21 year olds stripped of their right to buy firearms, and folks who own legally purchased property will become felons in a few days for not disposing of it. This bullshit is Scott's solution not to public safety issues, but rather his solution to widening his base in advance of his run for the US Senate in November by means of pandering to the gun grabbers at the expense of our inalienable rights as free men. Well, he didn't widen his base by retaining my vote, since I won't vote for a gun grabbing Quisling who's already demonstrated that he is untrustworthy. Rick Scott is a nascent John McCain2.0 which is worse than a douche like Nelson, since if we elect McCains to office we eliminate any possibility of effective political opposition to oppression. |

Murkowski isn't up for re-election until 2022. Are you suggesting that conservatives should "primary" both with solid conservatives, and thus wait until 2023 until we have "conservative" senators from both states????? Of course, the GOP will lose seats in 2022 because of a rough Senate map, so even if we get two conservative senators from Maine and Alaska, the dems will control the senate unless we win more seats in 2018. We have a no-kidding chance to add 10 or so MAGA Senators this election year, including Rick Scott. Are you suggesting that people just pout and sit at home until 2022? Should we all move to Alaska to vote Murkowski out???? |

Quote HistoryQuoted: This clown show is exactly why RINO's need to be stopped. It's the RINO's that refused to stand up for what's right that created this mess. I will repeat that I will NEVER vote for another backstabbing RINO Republican ever again. Yes, we might lose an election or two; however, I'd rather have this fight now, and not die a slow death over the next decade or two. Rick Scott showed us his true colors, he's another opportunistic politician who cares only about his political career, and can't be counted on to stand up for basic Constitutional principles when it counts. I hope he loses solely because he screwed the base. Perhaps he can go back to stealing from Medicare, honestly he should have been locked up then. What was the GOP supposed to do? Muscle through the nomination, then have Ford give a press conference (not under oath, and with sympathetic questions from the fake news?) This two-week delay only means Kavanaugh missed a week of work at the USSC. What did we get in return? A unified, motivated, and energized Republican voter base, and a demoralized dem base. The RINOs are going the way of the dinosaur. Flake is out. Corker is out. Murkowski will be out in 2022. And so on. Scott will be a reliable Trump vote in the Senate, and to not support him is a vote for Schumer to be running the Senate. I can't believe you guys are still this dense, after seeing the important of one vote in the US Senate. |

I think you are correct about Trump getting a 3rd SC justice next year. I expect Thomas to retire. I would not be surprised to see a 4th as well. Two of the lib justices are over 80, and a third isn't in great health. I think the most likely scenario is we have a 6-3 conservative majority on the court, with the 4 youngest members all being conservatives, going into the 2020 election. BUT, for this to happen, we need to gain seats in the Senate. |

I am happy with the SC make up right now. I don’t like either side having so much power that it isn’t concerned about the other side. I was worried that Kavanaugh confirmation might have dragged past the mid terms and unseating Nelson might have been vital to getting a conservative justice on the court. With that out of the way I will hold my nose and vote for Nelson with the hope that someone worthy will surface.

You are also not considering all of the lower court appointments, which we need a Republican Senate, to confirm. Nor are you considering control of the Senate legislative agenda and committee chairmanships.

Voting for a Republican just because they're a Republican is the stupidest thing you can do as a voter. Once you've decided to vote the party line you've ceded your decision making power to the party and they can take you for granted, and once they have your 'reliable' vote they can reliably ignore you. The only way for your vote to have any influence on policy is to be willing to cross party lines, or at least not vote for your party's candidate if you don't approve of them.
If you like Scott you should vote for him, but voting for him just because he's a Republican is a bad long-term strategy. I respect America-first for standing by his principles. His vote will mean something. |

I'm sort of undecided on this one. I know the implications of not voting for Scott. They are not good. Especially with as far left as the Democratic party has moved and the way they conduct themselves.
I also realize the implications of voting for Scott. They aren't good either. We are rewarding him for caving to the pressure. I keep thinking how in the past I could have voted for a Democrat and felt ok about it. There was a time when I didn't really look at the party of the person running, I paid attention to what they were running on. With the way things are now, I can't even imagine entertaining that thought. I'm not very hopeful that things will change to a more moderate approach in the future. Each side is pretty much entrenched in the party talking points. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't really feel like the right has moved any farther right. I feel like the left has absolutely doubled down on theirs en masse. In their minds they have moral superiority and it justifies anything they do or say. What happened with Kavanaugh was a prime example of that. Any rational person could see they used Dr. Ford as a political pawn. The problem is the left is simply not rational. I wish we had some different options. I really don't care for having to vote for the least bad option. I've had to do that for the last 3 elections. Yet if we let the Democrats gain control again, with the demographics here and some other places, we may never get it back again. What scares me is prior to Obama the country was a little divided but not something we all couldn't over come. In just 6-8 years he did fundamentally transform the country. If it gets any farther left than it is now, I don't think we'll ever recover. In fact it may very well be too late. |

I ended up holding my nose. In my mind, punishing Scott for his gun control bullshit would be simultaneously rewarding Nelson for voting "N"o on Kavanaugh.
YMMV. |

Look, Scott sucks and I get the "don't just vote party line" thoughts, I really do. I'm still pissed at him and don't want to reward him for what he did to gun owners in this state, but the time to get rid of him was in the primary, IMO. Now that he's the party's choice I have to look at the big picture and not just 1 issue. We need R butts in seats in the Senate, period. If we loose the House and Senate the radical dems will try to impeach Trump and Kavanaugh, and if Thomas retires they'll have a majority that doesn't read the 2nd Amendment the way we do. Florida's gun restrictions post-MSD will be nothing compared to what gets forced down the countries throat. And Bumpstocks...they'll be the first to go, along with semi-autos, rifles, lead bullets, anything NFA, etc, etc, etc.

Another reason to vote for Scott. Nelson is not doing his job. There are two bills that were passed by the House hat have been sittingin the Senate for ~6 months. They are waiting for Nelson to shepherd them through, but he has done exactly Jack and shit.
Privateizing the part of Santa Rosa Island held in Public Trust and staying on Daylight savings time. |

Wow! Give us 9 constitutional justices then I'll be happy with the make up of the SCOTUS. Damn what a bunch of soy boys around here. 1) A 7-2 originalist majority on the Supreme 2) Roughly 50% of the circuit court judges will be Trump appointees. This would be a massive game changer. As an example, earlier this year, the 5th circuit court was only 2 votes short of overturning the ban on buying guns across state lines. But we need a Republican Senate to confirm those nominees. |

Voted today. Didn't vote for either of those turds and wrote in Deez Nuts. I had voted for Scott during the governor's race both times but after he showed his true colors, fuck him. I'd rather take my chances with a decrepit Nelson.
