Harris uses celebrity to court Florida voters (Running Against A Bill & Hillary Pal)

"I am a politician," Mrs. Harris said before a recent lunchtime campaign appearance, her third of the day. This one was before a star-struck gathering of the Sarasota Bay Republican Women's Club.

The petite partisan firebrand is a hero in Republican circles. On this day, she is designer-black-clad from head to toe, the familiar smile pasted to her face in earnestness as she works the banquet room of Troyer's Dutch Heritage restaurant.

Leftist primary loser supports Harris!

[GraniteStateConservative]

I heard that she didn't get the endorsement of the Sarasota newspaper. Is that the case and why didn't she?

[Theyknow]

Who cares? It was some dribble about her being a polarizing figure (duh) and an embarrassment to the State of Florida. Let's see who is embarrassed on election day!

[GraniteStateConservative]

Do they usually not support Republicans?

[Theyknow]

It doesn't matter, but I think it's a Rat paper. Harris has absolutely nothing to worry about. What they think is irrelevant. She is going to win and win big, her district is as safe as they come. There is nothing the Rats could do about it if they tried and it doesn't even look like they are going to bother trying.

Ping, for Katherine Harris! Shame on the Sarasota Tribune.

Please Freep this poll, (and Gannett - NY Times SE).

[KatherineHarris4Congress]

You're correct. Katherine didn't receive the support from the Sarasota Herald Tribune, but that's nothing unusual. This newspaper is highly liberal, and they just (well I don't wanna say hate her) but really strongly dislike her. That's why we refer to the Sarasota Herald Tribune, as SH-T!
