Following the Candidates to the Sunshine State
Share
On the campaign trail here in Florida we caught up with Governors Mike Huckabee and Mitt Romney. We saw Mitt in downtown Orlando on a stop along the trail. After his speech we approached the governor and commended him for talking about his plans to combat global poverty.
After the meeting with Governor Romney we caught word that Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee was having an impromptu press conference at the airport. ONE members were able to chat with the governor and thanked him for his support. Gov. Huckabee was nice enough to take a photo with us before jumping in an SUV and heading off to his next stop. Ready, set, all GOP eyes on Florida!

It was certainly a pleasure meeting all of you here in Orlando at the Rudy rally!! I’m not sure how much a help I was but I’m glad I was there as a shirt-wearing, Orlando member of ONE. Remember, we “have hearts as big as America!” We DO!!
