8. Yes- this is great news. But the big battle lies ahead.

Anyone interested in volunteering? Feeney is not going to be easy to beat and the campaign will need lots of help! Think about it-- help us make history!

9. Statement from Clint himself

taken from BradBlog.com ... According to other reliable sources, a reporter from the Daytona Beach News-Journal called Clint and asked whether he wanted to make a statement. Clint said:

"It's looking good and we are glad to see it, but don't want to make my statement yet.
I see no reason to declare victory until every vote in Florida's 24th is counted. The voters deserve that much.

I hadn't planned to either concede or declare victory tonight. We've campaigned for six-months, we can wait another 6 hours or 6 days if we have to. Each vote is that precious."

Yay for Clint, and yay for honest elections!!!
