I support Harris even though she has a lot to learn if she is going to survive politically. She put herself on the line and took a beating to do the right thing in 2000. She was ridiculed in the most banal way by the left. I hope people realize that she is exactly what we need in the Senate. She is a solid conservative and though she may be difficult to work with I don’t think that is a good reason to throw her under the train. Conservatives are way too quick to follow the lead of the left when one of their own is ridiculed and attacked long enough. The GOP needs Senate seats and should be in a position to clean house but instead they are limping along to Election Day just hoping to hold the house and senate.

Byrd, Nelson, Feinstein, Cantwell and others should be well on their way to being gone this election. Instead they are focusing on protecting Chafee who might as well not even be Republican as much as he votes with the Democrats.

The Democrats have given the GOP enough material for hundreds of killer ads and where are they? There is no honor in allowing your enemies safe passage to power.

"Conservatives are way too quick to follow the lead of the left when one of their own is ridiculed and attacked long enough."

So true! Six years ago jealous jabs about her physical appearance were meant to drive her into obscurity. Some conservatives have joined in the escalation of hurtful criticism through the years to continue the effort.

Frankly, the degrading treatment she's endured in the media is something they would abhor if she were a terrorist at Gitmo.

Her composure and perserverance in the face of "piling on" that would send many women crying into permanent seclusion indicates just how strong she is.

Maelstorm, I said this in 2000: "Florida is 2/3 Republican, and the democRATS will try to cheat to win!" They tried, but failed!

I said this in 2002 and 2004: "Florida is still 2/3 Republican, and the cheating is over!" It was!

The democRATS have given Katherine Harris an unbelieveable amount of free publicity, and they still continue to today! It's unreal! They've elevated 'beating a dead horse' to an artform, and I hope they continue...

Now, it's 2006. I don't have to say it again. Go Katherine!!.................FRegards
