That is what happens when you have a rich daddy bailing out all your fook ups.
This is why I support a substantial estate tax over a certain point. Things like above only increase the waterboarding (yes, that can be part of the tax).

He could still win generals as far as the eye can see in his district, but he'd probably get primaried. You're not running out of pro-gun, pro-defense spending, pro-tax cut, pro Jesus types who could run a primary against him in the Panhandle.
Maybe one day people will come to their senses and realize that the above types, especially from a moral standpoint, are not the best that America has to offer.

Has to be some real interesting towns in FL down the center of state away from the coast.
Orlando's a sprawling traffic jam.

Lakeland is a dump.
Ocala has some fancy horse stuff but is kind of a dump.
Gainesville is a college town and has some dumpy aspects.
Palatka, Lake City, pretty meh.

I don't think much of the interior towns themselves, but some of them, like out towards the Suwanee river, you have relatively cheap land with some river/swamp/forest opportunities. Places you could get in for like $10k/acre, with no development between you and a river/public land. The river frontage lots will be a little bit more money. But the towns themselves are kind of depressing.

How about the deluxe double-wide community of Macclenny?

Orlando is one of the strangest places in America. They're like "we're not at the beach but we're trying to be".

They're trying to keep people in Orlando for a whole week instead of people doing a week trip going off to the coast for half the vacation.

because what's not to like about gator-infested ponds and heat and humidity that turns your nut sack into turkish taffy sticking to the side of your leg?
