She has a record to be proud of......

In Congress, Katherine Harris has consistently supported pro-Israel legislation. Representative Harris co-sponsored numerous resolutions including: H. Con. Res. 248, to honor the life and work of Simon Wiesenthal and to reaffirm Congress' commitment to the fight against anti-Semitism and all forms of intolerance; H.Con.Res. 392, to recognize the 58th anniversary of the independence of the State of Israel; H.Con.Res. 101, to push for the European Union to add Hezbollah to its list of terrorist organizations; and H.Res. 575, to stress that Hamas and other terrorist organizations should not take part in elections held by the Palestinian Authority.

As a Florida State Senator, Katherine Harris co-sponsored S. 3062, the Holocaust and Yom Hashoah Victims Resolution, encouraging observation of the day to remember the horrific tragedy of the Holocaust. While serving as Secretary of State, Congresswoman Harris advocated for funding for the Florida - Israel Linkage Institute to promote business/ cultural/educational/technological exchanges, and she traveled to Israel for personal and professional purposes. As Harris frequently reminds voters in her campaign speeches for the U.S. Senate, she is committed to standing by Israel.

Thats nice that she has this record, but votes on these issues has nothing to do vith her statements that only Christians should be in office.

I know you think highly of Katherine Harris- and respect your loyal support for her- so mean no disrespect to you or anyone else who feels as you do. I simply cannot vote for her after reading the interview yesterday.

Her record- for good or ill is no longer of interest to me.

There are some to whom no matter what Katherine Harris says, they are going to come to unfair or biased conclusions. They never liked her and will never like anything she does or says. She should just go on forward and not dwell on this. The more she tries to "undo" something (and I didn't hear the original statement) the bigger the pile of ravellings becomes. That is the only thing I thought the Clintoons did right...they never tried to qualify anything they said...and it would finally die from inactivity on their part. She is a gutsy lady and will overcome this just like she has so many other criticisms. I will not respond to hateful posts, so don't anyone even go there.
