Sunrise In The Sunshine State

Finally, a post on the Florida Senate race without mention of Admiral Tolwyn's jaundiced understudy in it:

"Reaganesque," gushes DrewM.  I say it's even better than that.  Dutch didn't become a national political figure until he was fifty-three, or fourteen years older than Senator Rubio is right now.  The Gipper remained on the national stage for twenty-five years.  Senator Rubio could double that if he so chooses.  He's that good.

But...running for president in 2016?  Why would he try to primary President Pawlenty?  Let him serve a couple of Senate terms, then run for governor of Florida in 2022 and get two terms of executive experience.  He'll only be sixty-one in 2032.  Isn't that soon enough to become America's First Hispanic President?
