LAKE BUENA VISTA - If there was one message state Democrats wanted to impart on the presidential field, it was crystal clear: Put retiring Sen. Bob Graham on the presidential ticket.

Party chairman Scott Maddox concluded each question-and-answer session with the candidates by asking them to consider Graham as an eventual running mate.

Graham, who opted against seeking a fourth term, received more plaudits Sunday when Connecticut Sen. Joe Lieberman addressed delegates.

As an outsider who just this year became well acquainted with Graham, his note taking, his churlishness, his totally inept persona, his outright lies, I don't get it.

Why did anyone ever vote for this man for anything?

Do our Floridians think that putting him on the Dem ballot as VP would carry Florida?

I partially responded to this in the Precinct, but the Florida Dems are impossible to predict, even for the national Dem party. I thought it was ironic Scott Maddox and chums held this meeting in Lake Buena Vista. The only thing Lake Buena Vista (a suburb of Orlando) is as a city, is Disneyworld. Ergo, this whole line of thought is appropriately happening in Fantasyland..... http://www.gopusa.com/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/tqrolleyes.gif
