Michael A. Cohen: Florida voters like Ron DeSantis' politics. The rest of America? Not so much.
The symbolism is rich. While DeSantis may be capturing the id of Republican voters, his cross-party appeal is limited. It wasn’t just that DeSantis-endorsed candidates fared poorly; the issues that have propelled his rise up the Republican presidential ranks did little to move voters this election cycle.
In Pennsylvania, DeSantis took his anti-woke agenda on the road, declaring on behalf of his culture warrior ally,, that “we can’t just stand idly by while woke ideology ravages every institution in our society.” Keystone State voters clearly didn’t agree, handing the Pennsylvania Republican a 14-point loss, nearly 10 points worse than Republican Senate candidate Mehmet Oz, who largely eschewed the same kind of ostentatious culture war attacks.
