So when we start talking about the state and all those that are so important and engaged and supportive around Florida, we've gotten overwhelming support, and it's so exciting.

We're not going to pay attention to the silliness and the petty comments. And quite frankly, women have joined me in this effort, and so it's not about appearances. It's about effectiveness.

Certainly I had my preference, and I very much hoped that George W. Bush would be our next president.

I followed the law. Before God, before the law, before the people of the state of Florida who elected me, I know that I followed the law.

They can say that abortion is alright. They can vote to sustain gay marriage. And that will take western civilization, indeed other nations because people look to our country as one nation as under God and whenever we legislate sin and we say abortion is permissible and we say gay unions are permissible, then average citizens who are not Christians, because they don't know better, we are leading them astray and it's wrong.

Don't fear moving slowly forward...fear standing still.

I am a bit biased. I co-chair the campaign effort of George W. Bush.
