You probably can't imagine how much fun I've had at Sunshine State News over the last 10 years. I don't think anybody could.

Mike Huckabee
With 2016 around the corner, the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) will be hosting the Sunshine Summit in Orlando from Nov. 12-Nov. 14 and the stakes will be high. The presidential hopefuls will take most of the spotlight but there’s another important race already taking shape as Rubio has said he will not run for a second Senate term. Florida Republicans Ron DeSantis, David Jolly, Carlos Lopez-Cantera and Todd Wilcox are already off and running and they will be at the Sunshine Summit trying to win support for their Senate bids.
Jeb Bush's campaign may be mortally wounded. Limping in the polls despite his massive war chest, he stooped (almost literally if you check the body language) to attacking Marco Rubio in an attempt to revive his fortunes. 
John Kasich

Unsavory enough that an incumbent congressman with a safe seat would send a letter dripping in nasty to a Senate candidate struggling for cash and polling in last place.
Ted Cruz, Jeb Bush, and Marco Rubio
The Republican presidential debates focused on the economy in two debates set in Boulder, Colorado on Wednesday night. The top 10 candidates clashed in the main event on CNBC while four dark horses tried to make a splash on the undercard. 
Americans have been betting on sports since the first time a Puritan pilgrim boasted that his horse was the fastest in Massachusetts Bay Colony and another said, "Wanna bet?" But fish gotta swim, birds gotta fly and government gotta fret about gambling on fantasy sports. Torrential television advertising by DraftKings and FanDuel is creating millions of customers for these sports fantasy businesses, thereby creating government anxiety lest Americans make unregulated choices inimical to their material and moral well-being.
Rand Paul

To hear the media tell it, Hillary Clinton came to Capitol Hill as a bullfighter and easily killed the angry bulls of the House Benghazi committee. The "mainstream" media wondered why these crazy Republicans would "walk into the trap" of trying to scrutinize and question a media darling.
Jeb Bush hasn’t exactly played his cards well for most of the year but he’s pursuing the right strategy against Marco Rubio by calling him the “GOP Obama.”
Bobby Jindal
With 2016 around the corner, the Republican Party of Florida (RPOF) will be hosting the Sunshine Summit in Orlando from Nov. 12-Nov. 14 and the stakes will be high.
