Republican attorney general candidate Holly Benson appeared on Political Connections on Bay News 9 Sunday, touting the importance of tort reform (rival Jeff Kottkamp was a trial lawyer) and standing up for Charlie Crist's endorsement of the federal stimulus package: "The budget challenges facing the Legislature were significant, so the Legislature and the governor had to look seriously at the stimulus dollars."

The full interview can be seen in Tampa Bay on Ch. 342, Bay News 9 on demand, but here's a snippet (Firefox often displays it better than Explorer).
