Anybody planning on seeing Mitt Romney at the Thrasher-Horne Center for the Arts tonight? I might be there to see what he says-

This is from Jacksonville.com:

"Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney is schedule to appear today at the Thrasher-Horne Conference Center, 283 College Drive, in Orange Park as part of his “Ask Mitt” tour.

The 5:30 p.m. event is open to the public, but space is limited. Officials are expecting about 200 people to attend.

One of Romney’s newest GOP presidential rivals, former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson, was in Jacksonville on Friday.

The visit comes a few days after Jacksonville Mayor John Peyton endorsed the former Massachusetts governor as part of a wave of local endorsements that included Peyton’s father, Herb, former U.S. ambassador John Rood and state Rep. Don Davis.

State representatives Jennifer Carroll and Dick Kravitz and former state House Speaker John Thrasher also are supporting Romney. Peyton, mayor since 2003, enjoyed a close friendship with former Gov. Jeb Bush, many of whose aides are supporting Romney."
