After uncertainty, Harris says Senate campaign is going ahead

Associated Press

WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. - After weeks of uncertainty over whether another high-profile Republican would enter the race, U.S. Senate candidate Katherine Harris said Friday that GOP activists and officials are rallying around her campaign to unseat incumbent Democrat Bill Nelson.

"We're a good six weeks into our campaign now. We feel like everything has come together," Harris said in an interview. "What I have to do now is go back and touch my grassroots, go back and touch my friends around the state and make a lot of new friends."

Harris, a two-term U.S. House member and former Florida secretary of state, also said she would raise about $20 million for her campaign and insisted she would overcome a sluggish fund-raising start. Harris said Gov. Jeb Bush is scheduled to appear at an event for her in December and national Republicans have an upcoming fund-raiser planned as well.

"We know the fundraising will be there," Harris said.

1. Puke Puke Puke!

Pancake face!

2. Erm....

"What I have to do now is go back and touch my grassroots, go back and touch my friends around the state and make a lot of new friends."

Too easy...

[tanyev]

4. Guess that's why she needed the boob job.

:rofl:

[ChairmanAgnostic]

10. aw, go ahead. Please. reach out and touch, grab, or whatever someone.

[NMDemDist2]

12. ROFL GMTA.... n/t

[Lochloosa]

18. LOL...I thought the same thing...

but you know..you just have to go there sometimes...

[howmad1]

21. Hmmmm, I wonder just where she will be touching her friends?

:evilgrin:

[Pirate Smile]

3. Yeah! Go Kathy!

:evilgrin:

[Cha]

5. I hope the people of Florida

unite to keep this hag, down in Florida where she belongs.

The secretary of state who purged voters from the rolls because she called them felons even though they weren't. She cheated, lie, and stole to get bush in the fucking white house and now look where bush is..course, there is still no paper trail on the Florida machines is there? So geb could make her the winner, no problem.

[superconnected]

9. When she gets beat, she's gonna yell "Voter Fraud"

[niallmac]

6. Oh yes. By all means. Can't you just feel the love?

:P

[yourout]

7. This is probably good news for us.

If we can get a decent candidate and a fair election she is very beatable.

[aquart]

14. Very. The party did NOT want her to run.

They just couldn't get anybody else this year.

[Orangepeel]

34. Our candidate will be the incumbent Bill Nelson

not the most charismatic man in the world, and not the most progressive, but he is well liked by moderates and independents and he should win handily.

[superconnected]

8. wonder it the uncertianty drove her corporate buy-out price higher.

Oh wait, I mean, she got a raise.

[ozymandius]

11. Max Factor/Sacrete haven't offered her an endorsement deal. n/t

[GOPNotForMe]

32. Time to sell any stock in those companies you might have! nt

[aquart]

13. She's the best they can field in a critical state??? Momma!

[suston96]

15. 20 million?

That's about what she will need to pay off the recalibrators to fix the vote count tabulators.

Just like in the old days.

That was the big delay... Now it is full speed ahead.

[Ian David]

16. She's gotta have way too much time and money if she's doing this

Could she maybe be a stalking horse?

Who do the Republicans REALLY want to run?

[Lochloosa]

19. IanDB1 take it from a floridian...there is no one that would risk running

against her in Florida. She will win the primary only to get fucking smashed in the general election. Bill is as safe as any democrat can be in FL.

[Ian David]

20. Using Jewish Holy Water to try and cure Citrus Blight doesn't help her?

[VegasWolf]

17. Fantastic! She has an extreme negativity rating. I puke every time I

see her face.

[Disturbed]

22. $20 Million ?

These Pepigs have nothing better to do with their millions?

[rocktivity]

23. SHE says that GOP activists and officials are rallying around her campaign

When the GOP activists and officials say that, THEN you can wake me up.

:boring:

[antonialee839]

24. Give Dubya a call, I hear he has a lot of spare appearance time

on his hands. He'd do wonders for your campaign.

[mitchum]

25. I like her new breasts...

but she's still a despicable party hack. Here's hoping she goes down in flames.

[PaganPreacher]

27. Giddy-up!

The Pagan Preacher
I don't turn the other cheek.

[BiggJawn]

31. That saddle's too big for her...

Saddle leathers are WAY too long. Maybe that's why she likes to ride at a trot...

[existentialist]

35. (You are correct.)

Any real cowboy or cowgirl should be able to pick up on that as a sign that she's phony.

But, heck, there she is touching one of those friends she mentioned; can horses vote in Florida?

[Olney Blue]

37. You'll have to ask Brownie about the horses.

[ronnykmarshall]

42. That's really a good picture of her.

Ok sure, fake bozzooms and all. But she looks pretty in that picture. Girlfriend's got her a nice figure on her.

A worthless sack of shit ..... but a pretty picture.

[The_Casual_Observer]

26. Hope they sink a bundle into that campaign.

[jzodda]

28. Good thats one automatic for us!

and also it means some very funny Saterday Night Live Skits :)

[PATRICK]

29. The difference today is

the Bush crime family needs more plain stooges to shore up their leaky boat and the rigged Florida system is their best bastion. Thus she will be set to anchor resistance to a Democratic avalanche, a star, a stooge and a buffer against the end of the Bush dynasty.

It is also a sign of a gamble and desperation. She may yet back down if the reaction against her is as strong as it should be.

Her own wishes in this matter do not really figure in.

[truthisfreedom]

30. oh, what the hell... bushco is going down the tubes... let's play pretend

and just run it up the flagpole!

she'll lose. BIG.

[mod mom]

33. They must feel secure that they have their grips on elections because her

close ties with bu$h, especially after their hurricane disasters, should be a red light for failure.

[ronnykmarshall]

36. You GO Curella!

[xxqqqzme]

38. "We know the fundraising

will be there," Harris said.

Is that a threat or a promise of a promise? Since rigging the '00 FL results, she has got 2 know where the skeletons R buried. So I'm guessing it is a threat. I think the gop promised her a congressional seat but she decided she wanted a senate seat which is where the split happened. She is over-reaching - being an uppity woman.

[leesa]

39. Harris: "You give me this Senate seat or I'll spill the beans on the 2000

election". Kathleen better watch out because I don't think she is as valuable to them as she thinks she is.

[Hyernel]

40. Hopefully Bill Nelson will drop a house on her.

Then we can watch her striped legs roll up underneath.

[Mz Pip]

41. Leaving nothing

but her grass roots and her silcone inhancements.
