Looks like it's all over for the Harris campaign, workers leaving en masse




Last one to leave the Campaign HQ please turn the lights out. The party's over.


I found this article this morning in my local (Central Florida) newsrag.

Paybacks are hell. I'm really disappointed. I was really hoping to see her suffer a humiliating defeat to Nelson. I guess she'll just have to find another way to spend Daddy's inheritance.

2. Wonder if she will go back on Larry King?
He should spend an hour apologizing to CNN for wasting their hour on that witch.

4. Isn't this just like Bush Inc?

5. So does Jeb stand now?
Has this all been a show, payback to the idiot heiress harris for a job well done in 00? She got her shot, she forgot to ask for actual support from the party, they used her to set up a run by the court jebster to 'save the party'.

I hope nelson beats jebby to a pulp.

11. Shanker doesn't seem to think so:
Read and enjoy. My mom forwarded this letter to me earlier this week with a Post-It attached that said, "Don't forget to donate to Bill Nelson!"

15. That hoop-de-doo was supposed to have been last night.



I would love to know how it went, if it happened at all.


"Sorry Shank. I can't be there tonight. I have a splitting headache. Love, Katherine."


Shit happens. Poor ol' Shank probably had a lot of hors d'oeuvres to consume by himself.


:shrug:

22. That "Ten Million" is just chump change to Harris.



Link: http://www.sptimes.com/2006/03/16/State/Harris__I_m_in_race_a.shtml


Harris was worth about $7-million in 2001, according to state financial records. Three years later, she was worth $10-million to $39-million, according to her federal financial disclosure reports, which allow her to report ranges rather than specific figures.

The increase came after her grandfather died in 1990. Harris sold her family stock, worth between $5-million and $25-million, after a five-year battle among Griffin's heirs, including Harris' mother, Harriet, after his death. The five children divided the multimillion dollar estate.

These figures do not include money she inherited after her father, George Harris, died in January. His assets were reported to be more than $750-million.



When she appeared on the Hannity infomercial and said she would spend "all she owned" (referring to the $10 Million figure) on the campaign, that was pure bullshit. She was pretty damn stupid in saying that and not thinking it could be proved otherwise.

13. Have you noticed that all Republican females look alike?
They have a look which is a cross between mean as a junkyard dog, and demented.

19. No!!!! We need her...for a while.
This is a great little paragraph:

Harris, who is running against Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson, is likely to lose her chief political strategist, her campaign manager, her spokeswoman, her director of field operations and even a traveling aide who helps hand out stickers at campaign appearances.


The stickers guy is quitting? Oh, the humanity!
