| Description | ORLANDO - About 3,000 Florida Democrats are gathered in Orlando this weekend to prepare for an election year they hope will bring the return of Democratic political power in the state.
Their optimism centers on Alex Sink of Tampa, who Democrats think can win them the governor's seat for the first time since 1994.
"I'm here tonight with a simple message ... for anyone who thinks there's a sign on the door of the governor's office that reads, 'Democrats need not apply,'" she told the crowd at dinner Saturday night. "It doesn't have to be that way."
Sink is the first Democratic candidate for governor in Florida in years to lead her Republican opponent in fundraising, and she's fairly close to that opponent, Attorney General Bill McCollum, in polls. |
