Sarah Palin to speak tonight in Central Florida.

The former Alaska Governor will address Orange County Republicans.

Many are wondering is she in a swing state speaking because she wants to run for President? No recordings are allowed, but WDBO's Mike Synan will be there taking notes. Palin waived the normal fee of up to a hundred grand to be here tonight. Orange County Republican Chair Lew Oliver says it's no accident top politicians show up in the I-4 corridor.

"I'd like to think that we are king makers here in Orange County. It certainly makes us feel better about life."

Sarah Palin can expect a huge welcome.

"She appeals to people as a normal person, a next door neighbor, someone that strikes you as real."

Will she run for President? Oliver isn't so sure.

"It wasn't part of her agenda to begin with. She was plucked from relative obscurity by national campaign politics. It's not clear to me she liked it all the time."

Oliver told me look for the regular names, Mike Huckabee, Mitt Romney and Minnesota Governor Tim Pawlenty. There are still tickets left to see Sarah Palin speak friday tonight.
