I wouldn't vote for Harris because she is tainted by speculation and innuendo from the 2000 election

So you wouldn't vote for any Republican who has been the subject of speculation and innuendo? She did her job according to the constitution of the state of Florida. What Harris did or didn't do as Secretary of State would have no bearing on her effectiveness as a senator.

I like Harris, but she was the victim of a smear campaign that obviously has affected some. I want to win the seat more than I want Harris to be the nominee. She should withdraw, and Gallahger should run. Florida continues moving right like the rest of the South. Nelson in for another six years would be a disaster.

Don’t read anything into my statement that is not in the statement. The purpose of getting her out of the election is to provide for a Republican win, not a Republican loss.

If you do not understand that in the mind of voters, perception is very, very close to reality, you have no business being in politics. Either that or you are part of the “let’s reward her for taking the heat” mentality that has put her under a cloud to begin with. Either you are for winning the Senate seat, or you are not, it is just as simple as that, and that is the only issue being discussed here.
