Mack gets a GOP convention speaking slot

by George Bennett | August 16th, 2012

?Lockstep liberals? should prepare for rhetorical fire ? Florida Republican Senate nominee Connie Mack will have a speaking part in the Republican National Convention in Tampa this month, the GOP announced this morning.

Other Florida figures who?ll be featured in the national GOP showcase include Sen. Marco Rubio (tapped to introduce Mitt Romney), former Gov. Jeb Bush, Gov. Rick Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi.

Mack, who frequently uses the phrase ?lockstep liberals? to slam Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson and President Obama, said in a statement announcing his convention speaking slot that ?Washington?s Lockstep Liberals have forced the government takeover of healthcare and saddled us with job-killing regulations, more taxes, more spending and more debt. That ends this year. The American people are demanding change, and change is on its way.?

The latest batch of announced speakers includes former Democratic Alabama congressman and early Barack Obama endorser Artur Davis, who seconded Obama?s nomination at the 2008 Democratic convention and has since become an outspoken Obama critic.

Also announced as speakers this morning: Govs. Bobby Jindal of Louisiana and Bob McDonnell of Virginia and Sens. Rob Portman of Ohio and Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire
