TAMPA, Fla.
Former gubernatorial candidate Bill McBride remained hospitalized in fair condition Wednesday, one day after he suffered sudden cardiac arrest while jogging and had his heart restarted with electric shock.

McBride, who lost to Gov. Jeb Bush last November, just completed a workout on a treadmill at Harbor Island Health Club when he passed out on a nearby stretching mat.

3. That's how I heard Lawton Chiles went....his heart while on a

treadmill! And I don't think "running" does that to you but what kind of shape your body is in .."inside"..that "does that to you".

5. that episode of "Monk"

I believe where the treadmill was wired or something. Interesting, but no one ever uses their immagination in real life.

4. Oh, crap, hope my GF doesn't find out....

She rips my ass enough over the "interval training" I do on my bike...

Hope McBride will be OK. We've lost too many Democrats the last coupla years....
