What the hell is Gov. Patrick doing in Florida?

This Miami rally isn't Governor Patrick's first stop in support of Senator Obama's presidential bid, in addition to battleground appearances in Virginia, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New Hampshire, Patrick also did some primary stumping in South Carolina. But even after all those states the governor can't help being pleasantly surprised by Florida's turnout.

"Look at this!" he says, expanding his arms to an all encompassing width. "This isn't even Election Day and people are waiting line. And they say it's been that way every day since early voting started. In fact, I've heard the early voting has been at record levels all across the state. And it's not limited to African American voters either."

"I wish we had that back in Massachusetts," he ended.

Lord love a duck...
