Floridas Democrats may not have the largest bench, but as the party gathers this week in Charlotte, N.C., they will be impressively represented by the Sunshine State.
The names that pop out include former gubernatorial candidate Alex Sink, U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, D-Orlando, the states six Democratic members of the U.S. House -- Corrine Brown, Kathy Castor, Ted Deutch, Alcee Hastings, Debbie Wasserman Schultz and Frederica Wilson, state legislators Nan Rich, Perry Thurston, Scott Randolph, Dwight Bullard and Geraldine Thompson, and Orlando Mayor Buddy Dyer.
And they will be among a crowd of Floridians on the convention floor.
For Democrats, 2012 will be unlike four years when both national parties punished Florida for its early primary.
The GOP did again cut its Florida delegation list in half -- allowing the others to be "honored guests" -- because of the Legislatures correct decision to give Florida more of a say in the 2012 primary selection process.
But Democrats, as they re-coronate President Barack Obama atop their general election ticket, will have an extremely full contingent of Floridians.
The contingent will be 323 strong for delegates and alternates, not counting 27 committee members and seven pages.
As the Democratic National Committee chair, Wasserman Schultz, along with former Republican Gov. Charlie Crist, will have stage time during the convention.
