Harris: I'm Not Under Investigation
Fmr. Katherine Harris Consultant Says “There's No Question They're Focusing On Her” In Bribery Scandal...

U.S. - Rep. Katherine Harris acknowledged Tuesday that investigators probing a bribery scandal have sought records from her Senate campaign, but she denied suggestions by a former top adviser that she is a target of the investigation.

Still, there were indications her campaign was increasingly involved in the investigation of former defense contractor Mitchell Wade, convicted of bribing a California congressman.

<snip>

Rollins said FBI agents and two lawyers from the Defense Investigative Service quizzed him on Harris' interactions with Wade in a two-hour interview two weeks ago at the Justice Department's Public Integrity Section. That section investigates allegations of corruption.

Wade's company, MZM Inc., stood to benefit from an "earmark" spending provision Harris unsuccessfully sought to slip into military spending legislation last year.

1. Well that's that then...
She cleared it up for me... Nobody as credible as Katherine Harris should be doubted in this situation so we should all just move along and find something new to investigate. :sarcasm:

2. Ask Karl if you can borrow his "I'm-not-a-target" pin.
When she sinks off the radar screen, I just might miss the comedic value she provides without meaning to. :rofl:
