Dale Mabry is one of the main drags through Tampa.
The poll was probably taken at a Republican fundraiser....and she only got 55% of the vote.
But seriously, I think she'll do much better than most the 'respected' polls indicate. I can't imagine that the majority of Floridians (republicans) will punch the chad for Bill Nelson. I'm not thinking she'll win yet, but it will be close.
Dale Mabry is a main artery through Tampa, Florida, eight lanes per side.
Now wouldn't that be wonderful...Nelsen has been a senator so long, I'd be very surprised he can actually be beat [today...in Florida thanks to Jeb Bush, it's very hard to win an election through fraud as the dimwits have done in the past]. I'll pray Harris beats his socks off. ;o)
Well, well -- just goes to prove how bogus these polls are. Oooooh - the GOP is in trouble..... I think it's the other way around.
We'd rather see Harris naked.
The "Politics in the Park" is a civic event where they invite anyone who wants to come & meet candidates, get bumper stickers, and/or drink pop & eat hotdogs.
Chances are, Harris put on a little show.
A little show...like riding a horse maybe :)
Where on Dale Mabry?
That is a very important question :)
I wish I owned the rights to that photo
A straw poll at a political picnic? In Lakeland?
Well, it's all over now...
It was a straw poll for cryin' out loud. Did you not read that part of it, or do you think Katherine "fixed" the straw poll?
Anything can happen in a straw poll, but it is a good sign.
My wife and I have sent in our Absentee Military votes and are proud to say it was Katherine Harris we gladly voted for.
its 'cause of the horse pictures I tells ya! :)
Why is it that I see ads for Nelson on TV constantly, but I haven't seen anything by Harris yet (Tampa Bay area)?
Indeed. It may earn Harris an extra vote or two, depending on the answer.
MEMO FROM DOMENAD TO SELF:
SELF: Just in case. Buy set of pasties ( XL? ) to cover appropriate portions for use at High Noon on Dale Mabry.
Lakeland is the largest city in Polk County, which went for President Bush in 2004 by about 60% - 40%. Plus, Harris' father, who recently passed away, was a huge mover and shaker in Polk business and politics. If Katherine Harris couldn't win a majority of a vote here, she's truly sunk.
