Linda talks to Tom Fielder, the political editor and a columnist at the Miami Herald, about the how the presidential race is shaping up in the electoral vote-rich state of Florida. Bill Clinton is campaigning in that state today. He's hoping to reach two key voting blocks in Florida...the elderly and Cuban Americans. The elderly, according to Fiedler, seem to be leaning toward support of President Clinton, who has a stronger voice for protecting medicare. With the Cubans, the President seems to be making headway...even though these voters are usually solid Republicans.
