So what do you think about the Grayson Senate race?

It looks to be either Grayson or Murphy in the primary. Either way, I'd love to see Rubio packing.

I find Grayson to be the more left candidate. I like a lot of his positions (but he does have some personal issues the right can attack him for), but Murphy being a former Republican and donating to Romney in 2008 doesn't sit well with me.

front of an elephant. It's hard to find progressive candidates. I'll be voting for Grayson for sure. We need a clear debate!

Unfortunately, I live a bit north (in Ga.) but I did send him a little $$. I'd LOVE to see him evict the Rube. It sure looked like the Rube was history with the primary vote. I hope it stays that way.

Floridians have kept Bill Nelson in office. Two years ago they elected Scott over Crist by a very narrow margin. I think Grayson is a stretch for this electorate. Also, Murphy is a tireless, disciplined campaigner while Grayson is a ticking time bomb. I voted my beliefs when I voted for Sanders in February. On August 30 I will vote my belief that Murphy is a much more viable candidate than Grayson in a statewide election.
