For years Florida Democrats relied on support from the state's retirement community.  G.I./Silent generation were largely Democrat-voting, even in Florida (remember: Al Gore's strongest age demographic in FL was those aged +65).  The G.I./Silent generation olds have largely been replaced by Boomer olds, who are a much more Republican-voting constituency.  This "bottoming out" of Democratic support in the retirement community have made statewide races incredibly difficult for Democrats in the past few election cycles.
