Among Democrats, nobody’s supposed to be campaigning in Florida on account of the Sunshine State angered the heavens by moving their primary up to January. Candidates pinky swore that they would leave it be, using the state like an ATM but not actually campaigning there. Now though, Hillary looks like she’s had a change of heart, looking to use the a Miami convention center for a forbidden rally. Now the campaigns are exchanging memos, arguing about who is doing the least in Florida as per their agreement. A debate about out who’s better at doing nothing might prove to be pretty competitive ground for a couple of Democratic senators. [Miami Herald]

And so, in a tradition perhaps as old as the Republic itself, the leading candidates of both parties are letting their supporters know, “Hey, I’m not going to lose tomorrow, but if I do it’s really no big deal. It’s all just part of the plan.” After all, pumping tens of millions of dollars into a single state contest and then losing to someone with no money who nobody had heard of six weeks ago, for example, isn’t embarrassing at all.
