FLORIDA NEEDS TAX RELIEF

TAMPA, FL— Congresswoman Katherine Harris, the Republican candidate for United States Senate launched a targeted effort this morning to inform Florida voters of how Bill Nelson has worked against tax relief for our families and businesses. Standing in front of the Internal Revenue Service in Washington, Katherine Harris reminds voters that she is the only candidate in this race who will fight to reduce taxes and government spending so that people can keep more of their hard-earned money.

“My opponent has voted against tax cuts time and time again, opting to funnel more of our wages to a bloated federal government. When I am Florida’s next U.S. Senator, I will vote to cut taxes and confront wasteful spending through a fair tax system.”

Bill Nelson has a record of preventing income taxes from being lowered, he has voted against marriage penalty tax relief, and he has earned the title “Enemy of the Taxpayer” by the National Taxpayer’s Union. Our opponent has even voted against tax credits for small business owners to purchase health insurance for their employees and against legislation aimed at eliminating the onerous tax on Social Security.

Katherine Harris, the Republican Candidate for the United States Senate, currently serves as the Representative for Florida’s 13th Congressional District. After receiving a Masters in Public Policy from Harvard’s Kennedy School of Government, she continued a distinguished career in public service to her native state that began in the State Senate and as Florida’s last elected Secretary of State. She resides in Longboat Key with her husband Anders Ebbeson and his 24-year-old daughter, Louise along with the constituents of District thirteen.

Has anyone mentioned that Rush plugged Harris today, and admonished the Florida GOP for turning their backs on her?

It was quite lengthly and pointed out that with party support she has a good chance to win.

Note: Rush is 97% accurate.

Thanks for posting that. Rush did have little to add to the Katherine camp, other than the most important point, that a vote for her is a vote to win the war. Nuff said, but if any freeper has some pull, a Rush to excellence tour of Florida with Katherine in tow would turn out the vote.

Her tax promises are too vague. Boortz said she won't sign onto the 'Fair Tax'. Has she said why?

She seems to support it:

"I advocate tax reform everywhere I go and I talk about the fair tax. What's going to be important for your viewers is that they understand it because the liberals who demagogue and say, 'You don't get your mortgage interest deductions or deductions for charities for other things,'" said U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris. "But the fact is, you're going to be keeping so much more of your money. You'll have far more to donate. You'll have far more to do anything you wish. It will be a tax not on your entire earnings. There will be nothing taxed on your earnings. It'll just be a tax on what you spend."
-- Senate Candidates Weigh In On Fair Tax

Of course, that doesn't mean jack coming from a politician on the campaign trail ...

So you are letting me know you can just put a name of a city in the URL and if they 'have' it, it will work?

"Because she has absolutely no chance of winning. Should have dropped from the race and given someone else a chance who isnt the laughing stock of politics."

Right, like Mark Foley.

She appears to have a conservative agenda, and is their candidate. Yet, the only thing I hear from her republican opposition is, "I won't support her because she doesn't have any support!" It's crazy and doesn't make much sense.

Why don't you also send a little of "green" stuff her way yourself???

Because I don't think she has a prayer. Let the people of Florida fund her.
