Another day, another ruthless report detailing Bill Nelson’s disaster of a campaign. The latest brutal article comes from the Tampa Bay Times and shows how Democrats in Florida are sounding the alarm on Nelson’s missteps.
Here are a few highlights from it:
“I don’t see the eye of the tiger anymore. He’s just kind of going through the motions and has made some errors — this thing about the Russians hacking into our systems,” said Jim Kane, a strategist who worked on Nelson’s 1990 race.
“He needs to get a backbone,” stated one Democrat from St. Petersburg.
“The only access I have to Bill Nelson is when I see him at big party events or fancy dinners,” said one grassroots activist.
A memo from the progressive Latino Victory Fund read, “Nelson should be worried since two key Puerto Rican constituencies — Puerto Rican men and non-college graduate Puerto Ricans — are now in the Scott column.”
Florida State Senator Victor Torres, an Orlando Democrat says, “People say to me, I’ve never heard of him.”
And this bad article comes right after a savage Politico report that warned national Democrats might pull money from Nelson’s campaign.
