Barack Obama coming to Florida next Wednesday!
I posted that I got tix in another thread, and someone didn't even know he was coming, so I'm posting the Tampa info here - he is coming the DAY AFTER Oregon puts him over the top, and I'm hoping he brings a big name to Florida like he did in Michigan. Hope you can make it!

7. From your mouth...
That would be the coup de grace, the icing on the cake, the straw that breaks the camel's back, the cherry on top...you get it. Come on, Al, you know you want to!

10. If not Gore then it could be CARTER or both
Florida would be so fitting for Gore, and Georgia is close. Obama seems to always know just what to do.

25. He is coming to South Florida
Edited on Sat May-17-08 06:04 PM by Patsy Stone
Maybe Friday, and IIRC, it was either WPB or Miami.

"Obama's three-day swing through Florida — starting in Tampa and Maitland on Wednesday and leading to a fundraiser and possible public rally in South Florida on Thursday and Friday — indicates he will campaign aggressively for a state that has played a pivotal role in the past two elections."
