She's a tough campaigner. But the real problem for her is getting out from underneath all these questions. It's hard when you can't control the cynics.

Alyssa was tough underneath. She is a great low-post player who is hard to stop.

It seems to me the vultures have stopped circling.

They aren't Jeb Bush. They don't speak Spanish off the top of their head. They have to distinguish themselves either by who they pick as a running mate or by how they conduct themselves on the campaign trail.

Republicans have every right to be concerned, but I don't see it in the sense of a Democratic frenzy of turnout. I see it in less than ecstatic Republican enthusiasm. Republicans right now, despite the economy doing well and us doing a lot of good things and having a lot to talk about in Florida, don't seem to have the same intensity that we normally should at this point in time in the cycle.

It sounds like she's thinking of a way to get out.
