Poll question: What actor should play Katherine Harris in movie about her life?
No one will ever make a movie like that, but it's a funny question:

1. Willem Dafoe

2. Ben Cross

3. Victor Mature

4. Iron Eyes Cody

5. Howard Stern

6. Jack Palance http://www.movie-gazette.com/directory/img/jack+palance.jpg

7. a five gallon bucket of Mary Kaye cosmetics

2. Picked DaFoe. Had mad love for him since the Boondock Saints. : )
Though I suppose asking him to play HER is no way at all to show it.....

3. The video store manager in "40-year-old-virgin"

I think men in drag is a bit extreme, and infers some things that should be reserved for Anne Coulter. There's plenty of talent that can portray the MIDWNLF to the hilt.

judicious and tasteful use of make up:

45. When I first saw a pic of Jocelyne
I thought she was the victim of some "elephant man"--related disease! But then again, maybe "too much plastic surgery" IS a disease!

She's also a RWer, not to mention she has the pose down as well.

32. What a gross picture ...
Immoral on so many levels ... ugh! She wears an over-sized diamond Crucifix like drug dealers sport those gaudy gold necklaces. The cleavage shot was gratuitous but the entire image is a figurative collage of visual monkey vomit and camel snot. :puke:

60. Apparently the Heritage Foundation has opened a cosmetic surgery
and spa wing. Choose from Anne Coulter, Kathatrine Harris, or Laura Bush styles.

We are doomed, I tellz ya, doomed.

I cannot imagine anyone else even approaching Harris's ability to load that much make-up onto one face.

of truckloads of cigarettes to get that Katherine Harris gaunt look.

Kinda miss old Iron Eyes. No small feat to be accepted by the N.A. community like he was. Still controversial, but a Native American in my eyes.

In addition to that, try living here in Florida where her ugliness permeates every part of this community. I can't tell you how despised she is in Florida, even by republicans. Sometimes, poking fun at her looks seems the only satisfying way to get even with her. Childish? Maybe. But I see this woman once a week around her and she turns my stomach.

68. What's to joke about ?? Just remember what this woman has done.
If anyone on this godforsaken planet deserves ridicule it's Katherine Harris. We could certainly do the same to any of the Supreme Court 5, to Bush (though he certainly gets enough here), Rummy, Rove - take your pick.

If you're concerned about the fact that it's a woman getting pilloried, start a thread going after any of the benighted menfolk of the Right - there's a shitload of them.

Katherine Harris is such an easy target, and she's in the news right now - until her skanky ass fades away along with her Senate campaign.
