A lot of people won't think so but the polls all giving her an edge seem to make this possible. Jeb was Governor awhile ago and FL gets so many new residents that this probably negates a possible Jeb edge. Even polls with midterm only voters seem to have Jeb down a few to Hillary. Considering both are well known it's ominous for the GOP. Can't help but wonder if Florida could be to Jeb what Tennessee was to Gore.

By 2016 Jeb Bush will have been Governor of Florida around nine years ago. It will have no impact with actual voters, but might play out with increased local GOP establishment support.

So I guess it will be a factor in the primary but a non-issue in the general.

A lot of NYers in southeast Florida can only help Hillary. I can see her rather easily running ahead of Obama in Palm Beach county all the way up the coast to Jacksonville

It helps that Jeb has never led her in a single poll.

That said, he is doing FAR, FAR better than the other Republicans there, most of which are losing by double digits.

Florida is always extremely close, no reason why to think 2 years from election day it won't be just because of the polls. They are never accurate 2 years out.
