Over the past several months we have heard from three of the leading candidates running for the Senate seat held by Bill Nelson. We heard from Col. Mike McAlister, Sen. George … Continue reading →

The Florida primary is just a few days away and it is drawing attention beyond the Sunshine State. Here, for what it’s worth, is my look at things.

I was reading the transcript of Marco Rubio’s appearance on FNS and found this interesting exchange early on. WALLACE: But wait a minute, you said mainstream positions.
