Joy Reid: ‘Florida Is Always the State that Lives to Disappoint Democrats’

EXCERPT:

REID: “Well, you’re absolutely right. And some of that, to even put a finer point on, I’m glad you mentioned Hillary Clinton because I’ve seen and I’m actually hearing from my friends in Florida, we know Florida is always the state that lives to disappoint Democrats, but The Villages, you and I both know, Nicolle, The Villages is a stronghold of the Republican Party. But The Villages is seeing organizing among senior women, among older women who didn’t get the chance to have a woman president with Hillary Clinton. They are a secret base for Kamala Harris because they now see this as their second chance. And so, the Hillary voters are mobilizing. You know, Florida is Clinton country and it’s Obama country. Don’t sleep — I’m not saying Florida necessarily is going to be delivered for the Democrats, but that’s the kind of organizing in unusual spaces that we’re seeing that women are embracing regardless of race, creed or color or party. Republican women, too.”
