Sadly, Marco Rubio will not be up for re-election until 2022

[MineralMan]

If he were running in 2018, he would lose. He won with only 52% of the vote in 2016, and sentiment is strongly against him right now. But, he doesn't have to run, which makes him able to shrug off his current embarrassing loyalty to the NRA.

We need to make sure that we turn out an overwhelming number of Democrats in the 2018 election, nationwide. By shifting Rubio into the Minority Party, we can limit his influence.

1. The students of Florida can make his life hell that he has to resign.

[MineralMan]

2. Actually, they probably can't.

He simply won't put himself in a position like that again. He'll just return to isolating himself from public comment.

5. Its amazing what people power can do when it needs to Rubio is a wimp who'll run away.

3. The students of Florida will mostly be eligible to vote in 2022.

I bet you they will be casting their vote for Rubio's opponent.

[MineralMan]

7. Yes, they will. That's a long time away, though.

We need to focus on candidates who must run in 2018 right now. We need to win those races. We cannot wait.

4. What are the odds of a recall election?

I don't know much about Florida, just wondering...

6. US Senators and Congressional Representatives Are NOT Subject to Recalls.

Civics 101. We cannot recall them. They can only be removed from office by their houses of Congress, or through normal elections.

9. Ah ha!

Civics 101 was a loooooong time ago for me. Things are a bit fuzzy

[MineralMan]

10. That's OK. That's why I'm here.

I've written that same reply here dozens of times.

8. I'd like to see Ted Deutch make a run for it.

I'm extremely impressed by him. And he's in a blue district, so he'll still likely be around in 2022.
