Pasco Represents at Romney Rally

A contingency of Pasco County Republicans was part of the the crowd ones that turned out to hear presidential hopeful Mitt Romney speak Monday afternoon in Dunedin.

A contingency of Pasco County Republicans also made their way to the event.

"The rally was great," said Anne Corona of New Port Richey. "Exciting to see the next President of the United States."

Corona is the president of the West Pasco Republican Club. Like Walligore, she said, Romney is the best man for the job.

"I think Romney is the most presidential of all the Republican candidates," she said. "He has been the most consistent in the debates. Mitt hasn't spent his life in Washington and I think that means something."

First-time presidential election voter, 21-year-old Joseph Molmar of Holiday, said he did research on all four Republican presidential candidates.

"I liked a lot of what Romney was saying. I agree with a lot of his positions," Molmar said.

Republican Club of Central Pasco member Kathleen Walligore of Land O' Lakes said:

"I voted for Romney because I wanted someone that had been a governor.  Someone with the best administrative and executive experience and (who) knew something about business. The American people didn't do that last time and now we are in a big mess."
