When Joe Biden became Vice President, Bill Nelson instantly moved into 1st place as the dumbest elected official in the U.S. Senate.

Best news I’ve heard so far & my family will not be voting for him. I’ll be glad when his smug face is no longer on my tv here in Florida.

Not been close....heck Nelson was a NASA astronaut .... His problem besides being a liberal, is he is old and senile and needs to be put out to pasture....

Their are several senators who truly are dumber than a box of rocks....Patty what’s her name, stabatoe is another....

NO Way. Patty Murray is still a Senator from Washington.

Mack is no prize but I’d vote for a monkey ***king a football before I’d vote for the idiot Nelson.

And that is with La Raza RINO Rubio not going after Spaceman Bill...

The ads against Connie Mack IV are really nasty. Of course, mentioning “Mack once ran Hooters” probably got Mack another 10-15% from the Joe Six Pack crowd

Taking out Nelson would be a huge GOP win, because he usually draws a good number of liberal GOP voters

I have been watching this race for a year now. Heard em’ all and really not thrilled over Connie Mack, quite frankly he is not a conservative in my view. But alas, as in the Presidential race.... pet rock will get my vote. Can’t stand Bill Nelson, his time in the Senate is OVER! He has been a thorn for sometime now. I did vote (absentee) for Col. Mike McCalister. Great guy and smart man. Lives in my town and just a personable man with Steet cred. Unfortuntely he did not get the GOP-e endorsement because he has strong conservative values and is not in the IN crowd.

Nelson is nothing more than a rubber stamp for obama

Nelson did a good job on funding of NASA. I don’t think NASA people will forget.

It is time for the astronaut to splash down. This should be a definite pick-up for the GOP as Sen. Nelson has been an unquestioning rubber stamp for all of Obama’s leftist agenda.

Connie Mack jr. is the GOP candidate. Solid voting record and family pedigree are pluses. His divorce and marriage to Mary Bono, not so much. Putting that in it’s proper place in the hierarchy of needs, it is essential that Harry Reid’s reign of corruption over the US Senate come to an end.

It will be Mack in a shoo-in.
