TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Republican John McCain is urging Florida
voters to help him win the state and the presidential election.
The presidential hopeful kicked off a seven-state sprint to the
finish in Tampa, the western end of the state's vote-rich I-4
corridor.
McCain told a modestly attended outdoor rally Monday: "With
this kind of enthusiasm, this kind of intensity we will win Florida
and we will win the election."
The Arizona senator said that he, like Democratic rival Barack
Obama, opposes President Bush's economic policies. But McCain
insisted he wouldn't raise taxes and that Obama could be counted on
to do so.
McCain was headed next to an area of Tennessee close to the
Virginia border and then Pennsylvania, Indiana, New Mexico, Nevada
and home to Arizona early Tuesday morning.
