Rubio will have to work his ass off to just get reelected to the senate, much less win FL as a presidential candidate.
This. To be honest, I'm pretty sure he won't get reelected. He's a lousy politician, just watching him speak makes me cringe. I can't even concentrate on what he's saying, cause his antics are always so extremely odd. The time is way overdue for Democrats to retake the Florida senate seat. Florida is already more or less a solidly blue state, although everyone is still pretending it's not. Sorry, but you'll see in the next elections for yourselves. There is no state, not even Arizona or Maryland, which will trend as heaily towards Democrats in the coming years as Florida.
I agree as well. A moderate Democrat such as Patrick Murphy could easily win over Marco Rubio in 2016, regardless if the Republicans win the Presidential election or not.
