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 Floridas 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 Taxpayers 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 Floridas 13th Congressional District. After receiving a Masters in Public Policy from Harvards Kennedy School of Government, she continued a distinguished career in public service to her native state that began in the State Senate and as Floridas 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.

That guy always creeped me out.

potlatch......I always liked 'Howdy Doody's show much more than that phony 'Two Face' Bill Nelson
Katherine Harris rides more than horses on the Campaign Trail...
Post from jenth:
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.
It's disgusting how many people around here have not only not supported KH, but have actively done much to torpedo her chances.
Everyone who doesn't want the ultraliberal Bill Nelson in the U.S. Senate should go to the Harris website and donate more money, now. I just did, again. It takes tons of cash to pay for TV ads. We need fewer lunatic Democrats in office in order to get more conservative judges, avoid higher taxes, win the war on terror, protect 2nd amendment rights, prevent abortions on demand, and to keep this country from turning into a socialist, Clintonista failure.
>>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.<<
Rep Katherine Harris does very much have a chance of winning this race for the U.S. Senate against lackluster incumbent Nelson .
Just because he served for multiple trms in the House, does not mean he has a lock on his Senate seat !
Katherine's chances are better now, way better than they were just a month ago .
If she wins this race, she will have THE LAST LAUGH . . .
If she wins her run for the U.S. Senate, then it means an even greater chance for Republicans to not only hold on to the number of Congressional Seats they have now, but to actually make some gains in the House and Senate at the DemoCRATS expense . . . .

>>Much like Graham, Nelson has his own machine that can function independent of any Democrat conections or financing.
We have to be honest and face facts. Nelson is VERY well seated and has the option of phoning in this race from a vaction spot in the bahamas. It is his to loose.

Oh c'mon man, he is just a one time senator, though he has been elected to lower office several times .
Harris has made some impressive(though not decisive)gains in recent polls after the primaries .
She is polling within eight points of Nelson who is not about to go below 50% - - not good at all for him !
He he goes on a vacation now, HE WILL LOSE ! !
If goes out and really campaigns, he will win . . .
There is no likelyhood that Katherine Harris will win this election !
It does not matter - - for the only poll that counts, is the one on election day !
Harris has a chance, but she must pull ahead of Nelson by the end of October .
If Nelson stays at or above 50% in the opinion poll surveys, then he wins ~ ~
but a lot can happen in the next thirty days . . . . . . . .
Thanks DC, I ended up removing it.

Do we really want to emulate Leonidas? IIRC all of Leonidas' guys died at Thermopylae. We might as well invoke the Charge of the Light Brigade.
Forward, the Light Brigade!"
Was there a man dismay'd?
Not tho' the soldier knew
Someone had blunder'd:
Their's not to make reply,
Their's not to reason why,
Their's but to do and die:
Into the valley of Death
Rode the six hundred.
Let's please use the Katharine Harris fiasco as a lesson for the future instead of blindly riding into the jaws of death.
KATHERINE'S WAY
And now, the end is near
And so she'll face the final curtain
My friend, I'll say it clear
I'll state my case of which I'm certain
She's had a calendar that's full
She travels each and every highway
And more, much more than this
She does it OUR way
Mistakes? She's had a few
But then again, there's always tension
She does what she has to do
And sees it through without exemption
Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew
When she bit off more than she could chew
But through it all, when there was doubt
She ate it up and spit it out
She faced it all and she stood tall
And she does it OUR way
For what is a woman? What has she got?
If not herself - then she has naught
To say the things she truly feels
And not the word of one who kneels
Let the record show she takes the blows
And does it OUR way!
Leni
She faced it all and she stood tall
And she does it OUR way
Another good post Phil. I pulled mine, lol, Howdy Doody is an ICON!
