Florida Is Kerry's Hope For Elections

American presidential candidate John Kerry criticized President Bush over a report that he had struck a deal with Saudi officials to lower gasoline prices before the election. He also vowed to end a "sweetheart relationship" that allows money to flow through Arab countries to terrorist groups.

"If ... it is true that gas supplies and prices in America are tied to the American election, tied to a secret White House deal, that is outrageous and unacceptable to the American people," Kerry said during a campaign stop in Florida. "If this sounds wrong to you, that's because it is fundamentally wrong."

Kerry called for Jewish voters in Florida for support, because that state has the fifth-highest percentage of Jewish population in the United States. The state also determined the outcome of the 2000 election.

Kerry and Florida Senators Bob Graham and Bill Nelson were joined by Sen. Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, who is Jewish and once was a Kerry rival for the nomination. The Bush campaign, in response, distributed to news media several Lieberman statements critical of Kerry from the primary race.
