I wished I thought of this sooner. The best way to have kept Marco Rubio from winning a Senate seat is have Bill Clinton endorsed him. A Clinton endorsement in a Florida Senate race is the kiss of death. Clinton endorsed his brother-in-law Hugh Rodham for the 1994 Senate race. Rodman lost to Republican Connie Mack by 40 percent of the vote in general election.
We now come to Kendrick Meek's pathetic excuse for a Senate campaign. Meek is running in third in every major poll to Rubio and Charlie Crist. Clinton endorsed Meek back in February of 2009. Republicans were destined to keep the seat as soon as the field was cleared for Meek.
The only thing worse than a Clinton endorsement for a Democrat Senate candidate would be a endorsement for a Republican Senate candidate. The Republican base hates Clinton. If Clinton was to go around Florida proclaiming his undying love for Rubio the Tea Party shine would quickly wear off.
