People always second-guess the hard decisions campaign committees make in the final weeks of a campaign. In most cases, they have better information than we on the outside have. But I have to wonder if the DSCC is going to regret pulling out of the Florida Senate race. The current PollTracker Average has Rubio up 4.9 percentage points. But that number is largely on the basis of one GOP poll taken last week. Take that one out and it’s Rubio +2.5.
