FLORIDA - Supporters of presidential hopeful Barack Obama fanned out at gas stations around Florida today... Handing out the senator's energy plan and criticizing John Mccain for relying on off shore drilling.

In Tallahassee, one city commissioner led the Obama assault.

"That's Senator Obama's plan and I encourage you to look at it and check it out and see what you think. I hope you'll consider him as a candidate."
"Energy is going up, groceries are going up. So I'm definitely going to look at this and I'm definitely considering Obama as a candidate."

Obama supporters stayed at the gas stations sharing their message to drivers for about an hour.
