TAMPA -- Seven protesters were arrested Saturday outside the USF Sun Dome,
where President Bush was speaking at a political rally for his brother, Gov.
Jeb Bush
.
In an unrelated event, several
Bill McBride
supporters who had tickets to the rally were denied entrance because they were
wearing McBride buttons.
Between 150 and 175 people demonstrated at the rally, according to University
of South Florida police, although most stayed in a designated area for
protesters on Fowler Avenue, hundreds of yards away.
