In this Oct. 23, 2008 file photo, Republican presidential candidate Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz. holds a bag of oranges as he begins a media briefing after visiting Parkesdale Farm Market in Plant City, Fla. Barack Obama and John McCain have both stopped by the Parksdale Farm Market for a taste of Jim Meeks' strawberry shortcake and milkshakes as they hopped across central Florida. Meeks likes to joke that his strawberry treats have a lucky ingredient: both President Bushes stopped by during their campaigns and won. Meeks' joke highlights a political reality in battleground Florida: No region is a greater bellwether of who will win the state than the counties that stretch along Interstate 4 from Tampa Bay, through Plant City and into Orlando and Daytona. (AP Photo/Stephan Savoia, File)AP - Barack Obama and John McCain both made it a point to stop by the Parksdale Farm Market for Jim Meeks' strawberry shortcake and milkshakes as they hopped across central Florida.
