‘The Obama Coalition is Gone’: Obama Campaign Manager [and MSNBC's joyless Joy Reid] Laments Republican Romp in Florida

Mediaite  "Obama 2012 campaign manager David Plouffe delivered a dark analysis for the Democrats in response to the GOP winning in Florida on Tuesday night: “The Obama coalition" is gone.”

"Incumbent Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) won over former Gov. and Rep. Charlie Crist (D-FL) and incumbent Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) won over Rep. Val Demings (D-FL).

"Here’s how the exchange on MSNBC went down between anchor Alex Wagner, former Rep. Carlos Curbelo (R-FL) and Plouffe:

. . .PLOUFFE: Well in Florida it’s catastrophic so obviously we saw great erosion in ’20 in the presidential race. And let’s remember Barack Obama won in 2012, basically tied the Cuban vote, got over 77 percent of the Hispanic votes. The Obama coalition in Florida is gone. We got to rebuild it now. . ..

"Wait, that’s not what I meant. Why does Joy Reid still have an on-air job? She’s almost as much of a gaffe machine as President Joe Biden. (“Almost” is a key word in that sentence.)
"She put that on display once again Tuesday night as she mourned the victories of Gov. Ron DeSantis and Sen. Marco Rubio, both of whom easily won re-election last night.". . .
She would fit in on "The View".
