Independent gubernatorial candidate Bud Chiles, who debuted in the first polls released since he entered the race last week, is going to be in Ybor City tomorrow taking part in a family tradition -- walking as a campaign event. Buds father, the legendary Lawton Chiles, famously walked across Florida during his unlikely -- but ultimately successful -- campaign to win a U.S. Senate seat in 1970. Walkin Lawton continued to walk across the Sunshine State to victory in two other Senate elections, as well as two more wins in gubernatorialraces.

The Florida Police Benevolent Association (PBA) continued its endorsements today, backing Lt. Gov. Jeff Kottkamp for attorney general. With more than 36,000 members, the PBA could be a big factor in a tight Republican primary as Kottkamp faces challenges from Pam Bondi and Holly Benson.

Lieutenant Governor Kottkamp has stood strong with law enforcement and correctional officers throughout Florida, said PBA President John Rivera. Because of that long-term support of fighting for our issues and being a partner with law enforcement, we proudly endorse Jeff Kottkamp.

The Florida Police Benevolent Association (PBA) is backing U.S. Rep. Adam Putnam, the Republican candidate, to be the states next commissioner of agriculture and consumer services. The PBA has more than 36,000 members across the state.

The Florida Police Benevolent Association is proud to endorse Adam Putnam for commissioner of agriculture, said PBA President John Rivera. Adam has the real-life experience, knowledge and commitment to serve us well as commissioner and as a member of the Florida Cabinet.

Big endorsement today for Hillsborough County Commissioner Jim Norman in his bid to win the Republican nomination in the race to replace retiring Sen. Victor Crist, R-Tampa, from former Gov. Jeb Bush.

Norman is facing Rep. Kevin Ambler, R-Tampa, for the GOP nomination.

Jim is a conservative leader who will fight to strengthen Florida's economy, advance education reform and do what's right for the people of Florida, said Bush.

Not only did Mike Tyson serve as the best man at Jeff Greenes wedding, he may have also given the candidate for the Democratic U.S. Senate nomination campaign advice. Greene is coming out in the first rounds, throwing everything -- just like Tyson did against the generation of heavyweights who clogged up the division between Holmes and Holyfield.

Dana Young, who is facing a crowded Republican primary to replace retiring Rep. Faye Culp, R-Tampa, just received a big boost to her campaign -- an endorsement from the Florida Medical Association (FMA) PAC.

As a mother of two, Dana Young will work hard to protect the rights of Florida's families to access quality health care, said Dr. Madelyn Butler, who is the PAC president and president-elect of the FMA. She understands that the doctor-patient relationship cannot be undermined by government intrusion.

With two new polls released today showing his campaign for the U.S. Senate mired in a distant third place behind independent Gov. Charlie Crist and Republican former House Speaker Marco Rubio, U.S. Rep. Kendrick Meek, the leading Democrat in the race, took on BP and backers of offshore drilling in a speech to the America's Future Now conference.

"Where are the conservatives, the 'Drill, Baby, Drill' people, now?" demanded Meek.

Lt. Gov. Jeff Kottkamp just named his Miami-Dade team for his attorney general bid -- and once again assembles an impressive collection of Republican leaders.

A movie director, a congressman with the same name as a famous baseball manager and a professional wrestler turned governor walk into a bar or better yet, CNNs Larry King Live.
