Michael Chapman (fawfulfan) thoughts on President Biden investing in in Part 1

  1. If Biden seriously wants to compete in Florida, he needs to understand exactly why Dems are struggling there. The main problem is Dems have collapsed in the Gulf Coast of the state. There are millions and millions of voters in Pasco, Manatee, Sarasota etc, and they are HARD red.
  2. Obviously Dems need to rebuild in Miami too, but the Gulf is a bigger problem. Gore did worse in Miami than Biden, but only lost the Gulf by a little, so the state was tied. HRC had the best Dem Miami numbers since 1964 but it didn't matter because she got blown out in the Gulf.
  3. In a nutshell, Florida is so tough for Dems right now because the Gulf retirement communities are where every other state's old white guys go when those states are done with them, and right now the old white guys aging into Florida are Gen X, the most conservative generation.
avalasseter,

@alfredo_liberal I'm in Sarasota County. The hard red has become normalized. The retirees that move to this area blend in with the maga culture that's already here, and worsen it. I'm also Gen X and can't explain what happened there...

Hello! I'm an anti-fascist from . I followed @Teri_Kanefield here from the other site. She's great, be nice to her!

I keep my sanity in this state by ripping out grass and planting I planted the Solidago and Liatris last spring (foreground), and spent this past "winter" removing the grass from the background area. I will share as things bloom!
