Florida GOV Race Just Took Two Sharp Turns

And how far to the left is Gillum? Check out this 30-second advertisement from his campaign called “Chance.” Rather than the voiceover, pay particular attention to the block-cap worded blue screens which flash between the video clips like some form of subliminal advertising.Here are the interesting screens in case you didn’t catch them as the video played:

BEAT THE NRA HEALTHCARE FOR ALL $1 BILLION FOR EDUCATION BAN ASSAULT WEAPONS $15 MINIMUM WAGE ABOLISH AND REPLACE ICE END STAND YOUR GROUND LEGALIZE MARIJUANA IMPEACH TRUMP

Not exactly a moderate platform, eh? We’ll see how that plays on the Redneck Riviera.

The debates should be a treat to watch. It remains to be seen how far Gillum will stay to the left or if he’s planning a Clinton-style shift to the center for the general election. Either way, it’s basically a Trump World versus Berniecrat race for governor.

I have been saying all morning: do not discount Gillum. I believe that he has both the financial and ideological support that is necessary to be voted in as governor, properly or otherwise. The biggest driver in this gubernatorial election is going to be turn out. But, then again, the left has shown more than once that they are capable of stuffing ballot boxes.

Dude’s done...

It is only a brief split second, but to openly run on “Impeach Trump” in any state that isn’t deep deep blue... is a losing proposition.

This guy is toast... and he will drag the whole D ticked down with him.

I have more faith in Floridians than that.

I talked to three people already this morning who were Graham voters who are voting Desantis. I really have a hard time seeing those suburban Graham folks going for Gillum.

Don’t discount the racial voting block. Made a big difference in a city council race locally. Nellie must be relieved at his winning over the dismal RAT turnout. The RATs would gladly sacrifice a state tokeep the Senate in gridlock.

You didn’t see the GOP primary turnout? It was more typical Southern state than swing state FL.

Gulum has no chance... FL isn’t VA yet and it’s been GOP for well over two decades.

DeSantis will be the next Governor.

So he wants to bring back the Jim Crow laws forbidding blacks from owning guns, bring back the “duty to flee” laws originally designed to prevent blacks from shooting at KKK members, and abolish the NRA who helped blacks stand up to the KKK.

Sounds like the perfect Democrat.

Gillum has the same chance Obama did vs that idiot who was taking 7 of 9 to swing clubs.

Anything can happen, and both sides cheat.

Vermont studied doing single payer.
They quickly gave-up when the numbers showed that would DOUBLE the size of the state budget.

Anyone want to double your taxes, Florida?

"...leftwing talking points video..."


Wow, that is frightening.
They combine his “down home” comforting voice with those frightening Socialist points flashing for maybe a quarter-second each.
There are dummies who will vote just for the pot and $15.00 minimum wage alone.

“I believe that he has both the financial and ideological support that is necessary to be voted in as governor, properly or otherwise.”

It is true South Florida is chockablock full of idiot liberals. But Gillum is the Republicans’ dream opposition.

If Gillum can't be beaten then the Republic is truly lost.

It is surprising he beat Ms. Graham. Like Hilary, she is a thoroughbred liberal, has a famous family last name, was entitled to win, and, arguably, a woman.

But Gillum had a lock on a 30 percent block-vote and that was enough to win a plurality on a crowded field.

That will not repeat in November. A few visits by President Trump reminding sane voters of what is at stake will swell the red wave. The wave will elect a Republican governor and help to sweep old Bill Nelson out of the Senate.
