Didn't Mac lose in 2000 to a Nelson?

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

He lost one race, to an extremely popular, widely acclaimed Democrat...in a high-turnout presidential election year.

He still would have been 10x the senator that that embarrassment Martinez is.

McCollum and Martinez had an identical (geographic) base.

Dear Senator Voinovich:

President Bush kept the promise Ohio people demanded when I canvassed Cuyahoga County in support of the Republican ticket last fall. Following my hard work, I will not tolerate lunatic left-wing attempts to disrupt the Senate Judicial confirmation voting process. Because Justice Samuel Alito has the sort of judicial record which I'm ready to fight for. Needless to say, any filibuster attempt is unacceptable.

I'm eager to hear of your firm commitment for Justice Alito's confirmation process.

Sincerely,
OLA

I lived in Florida in 2000. McCollum deserved to lose that race. He was an absolute cold fish on the stump, barely campaigned, and couldn't find a clear message. This is also the reason he will never get nominated to anything except for head of the Winter Park homeowners association.
