"Republican Rep. Katherine Harris, who as Florida's secretary of state was both praised and vilified for her part in the 2000 presidential recount"
Funny, I don't remember hearing any praise. All I remember is cracks about her wearing too much makeup. Amazing how the feminist party has no problem picking on a conservative woman. If someone on the right were to make a crack about Hitlery being an aging lesbian pork-beast who probably has a penis, then all hell breaks loose.
And for an older woman, Harris looks pretty tasty.
A former IBM marketing executive and vice president of a commercial real estate firm, Congresswoman Harris earned a Masters Degree from Harvard University with a specialization in international trade and negotiations, and a Bachelors Degree in history from Agnes Scott College. She studied abroad at the University of Madrid and at LAbri outside Geneva, Switzerland.
She has my support and vote! Great woman who took on the Dems in 2000 and made the right decision. Just doin' her job!
I'm overjoyed Harris is running. She'll be a great campaigner and a great senator.
I have a hunch Tommy Franks is hanging back this coming election and will run for something in the next presidential election. This would be great as this would help the GOP presidential candidate in Florida immensely.
Hey, I think Jeb 'n George 'n Harris 'n Tommy 'n Mehlman and other Republican leaders have things pretty well thought out for the next two elections.
I'm pleased as punch.

Did she marry into money or did she already have it?
When Ms. Harris backed off from her plan to run for the Senate seat that Martinez then won, I figured that the RNC made her a promise, i.e., Pass on this one and let Mel run. When the next socialist Senator comes up for a vote, we'll back you with people and money like you could only dream of.
Her time has come and I say Go Katherine Go. I live in Sarasota and this is going to set the local Dims to howling, probably beginning in tomorrow's papers - I'm looking forward to reading their sputtering rage in the Letters section. Ha ha ha!
