After more than 40 years of public service, including 16 years as a U.S. Senator and two terms as Florida's governor, Bob Graham tried to retire, but anger and frustration over what he sees happening to the state's environment has him fully engaged in a new campaign.
On Saturday morning, Graham stood on a stage at Silver River State Park, rallying a crowd of about 1,000 who gathered in concern over the plight of Florida's springs and rivers, particularly Silver Springs. The famed attraction has featured glass-bottom boat rides for more than 130 years.
"We are mad as hell and we want to do something about it," Graham said during a speech that drew three standing ovations from the enthusiastic crowd.
