The best they can do?
I don't understand the enthusiasm of some Democrats for a run for governor by Fla. Sen. Walter "Skip" Campbell.
But if you're going to abandon your base and become the Republican Lite Party, I guess he's you guy. Fortunately for him, people have already forgotten his embarrassing role sponsoring and initially defending the state's late, unlamented "scarlet letter law." (See the Flablog Vault of Memory here and here and here.) And he was one of the Democrats who initially voted for Big Sugar's slow-the-Everglades-cleanup bill.

I feel the same about Democrat Sen. Rod Smith, from my neck of the woods. I suppose the elite likes him because he is a Dem/Repub hybrid and was our state attorney for eight years, which gives him the ability to say he is a crime fighter. But Smith hates the environment, wants growth to be as little regulated as possible, takes money from big business special interests and is about in touch with the working folks as Jeb.
