Welcome to

Former US Senator George LeMieux wants to hear specifics from President Barack Obama tonight in the State of the Union Address. LeMieux, who was appointed to the senate by Former Governor Charlie Crist, says the country needs to hear how the president plans to create jobs and get us out of the recession. LeMieux, whose seat in now being held by fellow Republican Marco Rubio, applauded the new mixed seating arrangement to promote bipartisanship, but hopes the unity doesn’t end once the speech is over.

“Sitting together for a speech is not bipartisanship. Sitting together for a speech is not working together. The American people want our elected officials to be problem solvers, to sit-down, hold their deeply held views, be principled, but try to find things they can agree on,” said LeMieux.

LeMieux hasn’t ruled out a run against Democratic Senator Bill Nelson in 2012. He says Nelson’s seat is ripe for the taking.
