Thurman: Sink Is The Proven Leader To Move Florida Forward

From the FDP:

Florida Democratic Party Chair Karen L. Thurman released the following statement today supporting CFO Alex Sink in her campaign to be Florida's next governor:

"To move Florida forward, it's clear we need a leader who fights for our families, strengthens the middle class, and takes on the special interests.

"Floridians are cheering today now that Alex Sink has announced her candidacy for governor. As a businesswoman who delivers real results for the people of Florida, CFO Alex Sink is not only the Democrats' strongest candidate but she's the very best candidate for the job.

"As Florida's CFO, Alex Sink is a proven leader who uses her three decades of business experience to get results. CFO Sink has protected consumers from financial fraud, cut down on no-bid contracts, and make government more efficient with our tax dollars.

"Now more than ever, we need Alex Sink's leadership to guide Florida through the difficult challenges ahead and protect everyday Floridians from the special interests in Tallahassee. Our party is organized and energized to elect Alex Sink to the governor's office, and in 2010, Sink will lead the next wave of Democratic success in our state."
