Clean Sweep for Next Generation Florida candidates!

Maybe we're psychic...or maybe we just know how to pick great candidates. Either way, we are just thrilled that ALL of our Next Generation Florida endorsed candidates have successfully gotten past the primaries...our candidates who had contested primaries won by 2 to 1 margins or greater!

Congratulations to Chris Dorworth, Eric Eisnaugle, Andy Gardiner, Miker Horner, Bryan Nelson, Scott Plakon, and Steve Precourt! We look forward to celebrating victory with you again on November 4th!

Dan Webster Endorses Eric Eisnaugle!

BREAKING NEWS...

State Senator (District 9) Dan Webster has just announced today that he is endorsing Eric Eisnaugle for the District 40 House seat currently held by Andy Gardiner. Andy Gardiner, who is term-limited out of the District 40 seat and is running for State Senate, has endorsed Eric's candidacy as well.

These endorsements are in addition to earlier statements of support that Eric received from State Representatives David Simmons, Chris Dorworth, Bryan Nelson, Steve Precourt, and Frank Attkisson. Eric's widespread support among respected House leaders further illustrates that he is the true conservative candidate in this race and a worthwhile successor to follow Andy Gardiner's fine example in representing the people of District 40.

We here at Next Generation Florida have admired Dan Webster and Andy Gardiner for their dedication to conservative principles while avoiding the acrimonious bitterness that can infect partisian politics, and we've always thought that Eric Eisnaugle was definitely "from the same mold." Congratulations Eric on these latest endorsements. We are proud of the dedicated and ethical campaign that you and your wife Carrie have run, and we look forward to seeing you represent Central Florida in Tallahassee next year.

Andy Gardiner Endorses Eric Eisnaugle!

We are THRILLED to announce that today, State Representative Andy Gardiner has publicly announced that he is endorsing Eric Eisnaugle for State House District 40, the seat Gardiner currently represents.

"After careful consideration, I have decided to publicly endorse Eric Eisnaugle for State House District 40. He has proven to me that he has the right values, the right work ethic, the right experience and is running for all the right reasons. District 40 would be well served by Eric," said Gardiner.

"I am honored to have earned Andy Gardiner's support and endorsement. He has been an effective legislator for both District 40 and for the Central Florida region. He leaves some big shoes to fill, but I am confident I am up to the task," stated Eisnaugle.

Congratulations Eric on this well-earned endorsement! We've always known you were the right guy to follow in Andy's footsteps!

Thanks for all the support!

All of our Next Generation Florida candidates have been receiving so much great support from the community. Thanks to everyone who has volunteered their time...successful campaigns require grassroots organization, and your help is just priceless. Thought it would be fun to share some photos from recent precinct walks.

The first picture is a great group who came out on a very rainy Saturday on August 16th to walk for Eric Eisnaugle. A lot of the volunteers came from the area Young Republican and College Republican groups. Despite the weather, we all had a lot of fun and were thrilled to see firsthand just how much support Eric has in the local community. Many of the voters whose doors we knocked on had already met Eric or Carrie!

The second picture is from a "Megawalk" that the Scott Plakon campaign organized earlier this month. Scott reports that he had over 60 volunteers who helped him knock on over 2,000 doors! Way to go, Team Plakon!

That's Hot.

Never thought I'd say this...but I have a new respect for Paris Hilton. Seriously, I'm not kidding.

After the McCain campaign used her image in a recent TV spot, the celebutante put together a response. Watch and enjoy...and let me know what you think...she may have something with her energy policy idea!

UPDATE: on Hannity & Colmes tonight, they quoted McCain spokesman Tucker Bounds as saying, "It sounds like Paris Hilton supports John McCain's all of the above approach to America's energy crisis - including both alternatives and drilling. In reality, Paris Hilton may have a more substantive energy policy than Barack Obama."
