Our current "space cadet", Bill Nelson, just will not do. What an embarrassment to the state of Florida. It's obvious to everyone that the 'cheese fell off his cracker' years ago and he just keeps shuffling along reciting talking points.
I'm hoping that by the weekend we will have our candidate and bury any hatchets that may exist.
You're not only "not alone," you're standing with the vast majority of Republicans who understand that--for a variety of reasons, not the least of which is Katherine Harris' (valid or not) continuing ethics problems--that she is simply unelectable. She may very well be an absolutely wonderful person, but "wonderful person" isn't the name of this game, and it sure as heck won't be effectively played with a tight sweater, a horse, a simpering shimmy on H&C, or an abominably early political commercial (in which Harris' facial expression is much like that of a fellow, at the critical moment, in the proctologist's office, although at least she spared us all the gratuitous hooter shot).

I agree completely. Nelson is vulnerable, in an election year where we need to take effective advantage of every vulnerable seat. It has nothing to do with Katherine Harris, specifically. It has to do with the balance of power in the U.S. Congress, and whether it is retained by the Republican party or not. While she could have (probably) retained her seat in the House of Representatives, she has elected to place that seat up for grabs in order to pursue a seat in the Senate which she cannot win.

I hope so as well. I've got nothing whatsoever against Katherine Harris, other than the drain and divisiveness she is placing on the party. A 4-month, ugly, and expensive primary fight (Harris v. Bense) will serve no one but Bill Nelson.
