Nearly 18 months after Florida's election chaos made her a household name, Katherine Harris remains a lightning rod for controversy as she turns her sights on a seat in Congress.
Among the palm trees and BMWs in this staunch Republican bastion, the mere mention of Harris' name provokes torrents of outrage, wonder and gossip -- often all at once.

And huge size 13 feet! Go on--stomp the competition, honey.
My kinda girl!
Picture, please!
Chester Flake, huh? Now THAT name inspires voter confidence........ yeah, sure. Sorry, I'm still laughing.... can't help myself!
Should we? Hers' is a safe district. Why not direct scarce resources to marginal seats with a conservative R opposing a liberal D?
During a Schneider fund-raiser at a Sarasota golf club, Democrats said they were heartened by the recent flap over Harris's efforts to attend a Gingrich banquet at the Tiger Bay Club, a local group featuring political speakers.
The club's Republican president, Marj Baldwin
Shes the president of a country club speakers society, attending a fundraiser for a Democrat, so I take her claim that she is a Republican with a HUGE grain of salt. Shes one of those Republicans who voted for Clinton twice and Gore (or Buchanan, accidently) at least once.
I will say this - if we sit back and "assume" people are going to do the sensible thing and elect candidates who support a strong military, reducing taxes, and keeping America free and safe - we will be sorely disappointed come this November. The RATS are hoping we are all either pre-occupied with the war on terror OR with the economy OR are sitting back content with things as they are - so we will NOT get involved NOW in the elections for this November.
Not all of us can serve in the military or other front line ways to serve our country. But all of us can get involved politically if we will just make the effort.
If we are lazy or stubborn or just "Pouting" about one issue or another - fine. Let Daschle and Gephardt and Hillary CLinton be in charge the next 2 years in the House and Senate and watch what happens to our country.
