Jeb Bush Say Katherine Harris Can't Win

May 8, 1:03 PM EDT


By BILL KACZOR
Associated Press Writer

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Gov. Jeb Bush said Monday that U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris has dropped so low in public opinion polls that she cannot unseat Democratic U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, unleashing his strongest statement yet about her struggling campaign.

"I just don't think she can win," Bush said about Harris after participating in an annual memorial for fallen Florida police officers in the Capitol courtyard.

Bush has made no secret that he hopes House Speaker Allan Bense will challenge Harris, who was expected to file her papers Monday as qualifying for federal office opened. Bense has not yet made up his mind, his wife said Monday from their Panama City home. The deadline for entering September's primary is Friday. Snip

"I have a lot of respect for him and he'll make up his own mind, and when he does I believe there'll be lots of support for him," Bush said.

1. Wow, what loyalty
jeb could have said the same about his brother in 2000:

I just don't think he can win WITHOUT KATHERINE. Maybe the gop hate machine will piss her off so bad she'll quit and start campaigning for Nelson. Nothing like the warm feeling of being a member of the gop.

4. Revenge for Harris could be sweet, if she'd just sing like a bird.
She could bring The Bush Crime Family™ down very quickly.

She would be wise to pay attention to what's going on around her.

And she probably shouldn't leave her car parked outside at night.

3. The Republicans are done with the Whore Harris, and what we are seeing
now is the carcass being tossed aside.

What a Christian thing to do.

:sarcasm:

8. She is getting the Paula Jones treatment.
People who make a pledge with the devil should know that they will get burned sometime.

"Oh, shut up silly woman," said that reptile with a grin. "You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in"

10. I think this Senate run
was her idea. From what I've read all along, the party's enthusiasm was lukewarm from the get go. She was probably supposed to remain House bound.

12. She needs to stay away from ....
.... small airplanes.
.... hot interns which she could be photographed with and used to blackmail her.
.... people who now want to "help" her, who will sabotage things from inside.

She is a marked woman and will be a danger to Repubs as long as she is around.
