INTRODUCTION: THE BIG CASE The start of the broadcast was only minutes away, and for the next hour it would become the most watched television news event since the bizarre night of Florida's botched presidential election a month earlier. An entire world was scrutinizing little Tallahassee, Florida's capital city. The tension was palpable. I arrived early December 7, 2000, anxious to make sure that the Florida Supreme Court's all-important satellite uplink was working properly. This was the vital connection that would enable a world-wide audience to see and hear an hour-long oral argument broadcast from a courtroom that one commentator called "an elegant television studio."1 At the time, such a description easily could have been derisive, and even today it would at least spark healthy debate among appellate court officials nationwide.

  • Sen. Bill Nelson (D–Fla.) Senior Senator from Florida
    Sen. Bill Nelson (D–Fla.) Senior Senator from Florida Residence: Orlando Born: Sept. 29, 1942; Miami, Fla. Religion: Presbyterian Family: Wife, Grace C. Nelson; two children Education: Yale U., B.A. 1965 (political science); U. of Virginia, J.D. 1968 Military Service: Army Reserve 1965-1971 Career: Lawyer First Elected: 2000 (3rd term) Latest Election: 2012 General (55.23%) Political Highlights: Fla.

Bill Nelson (D–Fla.) Senior Senator from Florida CQ Politics in America Profile (Updated: April 4, 2013) The low-key Nelson casts himself as a left-leaning centrist and pays extra attention to topics frequently associated with his state: the space program, the military and old people. Although he can claim to be the only astronaut in Congress, Nelson isn’t a particularly flashy lawmaker. His parochial approach to his job and mild demeanor have made him a successful, if not beloved, politician. He’s not linked to the drama of leadership battles, and colleagues describe him as both nice and careful. The only Democrat currently holding statewide office in Florida, he has dispatched a string of ineffectual Republican challengers.
