The following are excerpts from Curt Clawson’s remarks given this evening following the conclusion of the Special Republican Primary Election in Florida Congressional District 19:
“All is forgiven. I want you on the team. We need to unite Southwest Florida.”
“I put the Economic Growth Plan together with Connie Mack’s Penny Plan, because we need to cut spending in addition to Economic Growth. And I will continue to promote the Penny Plan in Washington and across the country.”
“I got into this race because I felt like we needed more Outsiders in Congress. The career politicians aren’t getting the job done, and I don’t see a whole lot of people in Washington with the experience as a CEO in making the tough decisions to save our country.”
“To President Obama: We aren’t going to agree on much. I am going to challenge you on Obamacare. I am going to challenge you on spending. I am going to challenge you on economic growth. But first, I am going to challenge you on the basketball court. It’s time to man up and accept the three-point challenge. My house or yours?”
