Not only won - it was a massacre - 84% of the vote. Looks like Meek is leading for the DEMS and only has about 54%. Haven’t heard anything about the tangerine boy yet.

Rubio Wins GOP Nomination In Fla. Senate Race

http://cbs3.com/politics/marco.rubio.gop.2.1877358.html

Excerpt:

When GOP hopeful Marco Rubio entered the race for the U.S. Senate, most political observers gave him zero chance of knocking off then-GOP incumbent governor Charlie Crist. But voters overwhelmingly selected Rubio to be the GOP nominee on Tuesday, CBS station WFOR-TV reports.

Rubio was declared the winner when the last polls in Florida closed at 8:00 p.m.

Rubio trailed by upwards of 30-40 points in early polling, but then, Rubio embraced the tea party movement; and now he’s poised to win the GOP nomination.

Saw Marco Rubio at the Orlando Freedom Concert and he was wildly applauded by his articulate conservative message. Thank you Florida! Good bye Charlie!

Is there ever any doubt after Ms. Crist dropped out?
