Harris has never lost an election.

This is not fooling around here. Her pride and priviledge is the ONLY reason she is still in this race. The money she used to finance her campaign was not money she had the discipline to earn. She has very little support at this level and she is costing us a chance at a Senate seat. Short of a stroke, I don't see how Nelson can lose to Rep. Harris. I am very familiar with the personalities involved and the politics. This is the kind of blue-blood Republicanism that gives our party a bad name. Her grand-father was a man to be admired. She was fine at the State level. She was over her head at the congressional level. She is completely out of her league at the Senate level. She will lose badly to an upopular incumbant who could have easiliy been defeated by a good candidate. Harris will lose by at least twenty points and she will attract almost no party support. It was the Republican party experts who were telling her she could not win, not the media.

And my reference to Quayle was not to denegrate a fine man, but you have to admit he was way out of his league in the Whitehouse. He got so nervous when asked questions he said incredibly stupid things. You can't do that. Not at that level.

Rep. Harris does well at women's clubs. That seems to be the total extent of her support and they constitute an echo chamber for her. Their voices seem to be the only ones she can listen too. I will vote for her, but I am a party line voter. If people like me were a majority, perhaps she could be elected. But I don't admire her, even a little.

Nobody is perfect for their position. I don't understand your hyper-criticism. I don't like blue-blooded Rebpulicanism either because generally they tend to be liberal on social issues - I don't think Harris is liberal on social issues and it shouldn't be a crime she inherited her wealth.

Hey let's go make Harris senator!

Money doesn't always buy elections nor does "pride and privilege." You give her no credit for her ability to appeal to the voters. She has been a successful politician who is a proven winner.

Forget the previous polls. Harris is now the candidate running against Nelson. It will be a tough battle against an incumbent, but Harris has demonstrated the pluck and courage to challenge the establishment and win using grassroot efforts.

On all of these Harris threads, I find it interesting that most of the naysayers about Harris come from outside Florida and the supporters are Floridians. You are one of the exceptions.

She just won the Rep primary by 185,000 votes over her nearest challenger and garnered 50% of the vote. Somebody in the Rep party in Florida supports her. Half of the current US Senators are out of their league. We will see what happens in November, but it is a bit early to concede defeat. The game just started yesterday.

And my reference to Quayle was not to denegrate [sic] a fine man, but you have to admit he was way out of his league in the Whitehouse. He got so nervous when asked questions he said incredibly stupid things. You can't do that. Not at that level.

I don't think he was in your terminology "way out of his league." The MSM tried to create a caricature of him in much the same way they did with Ford, Reagan, Bush 41, and 43. GOP Presidents and VPs are dumb, racist, puppets who are not suited for the job. I have met Qualye and heard him speak at a small gathering. He is articulate, bright, and funny. Just because the MSM made a big deal out of the spelling of the word potato doesn't make him "out of his league." What incredibly stupid things did he say?

I think you seriously underestimate her appeal to voters. She may not win, but it will be a much closer race than the polls and her detractors think.

All your rantings are nothing but a loser's mentality, or should we call it envy, also???

I'm sure glad that you are NOT among the leadership of our beloved Miami Heat, Florida Marlins or for the Miami Dolphins!!!
