Cruella Harris...omg...I can't even summarize this

[Elidor]

"(Harris) took him by the hand and led him over to the bar and said she wanted to have a 'nuclear' conversation with him...and wanted to 'talk about nuclear technology.' Then she led him back to the table and sat him down, sat next to him, and her foot was brushing against his foot, her knee was half-an-inch away, she leaned in real close and started calling him 'honey.'"

More Harris porn, and a statement by the young victim, after the break...

Edit: Josh Marhsall at TPM: "Should we be grateful there were no pics of the Harris-Wade dinner? I'm not even sure how to blurb this, other than to ask if this kid got her number."

[LynneSin]

1. She's hitting on that guy

look at her, she's rubbing him up in hopes of getting some good press.

[Late Slip]

117. Does anyone know if this has hit MSM yet?

If so where and how is she responding?

[orleans]

191. she used to hit on another reporter

but she gave it up when 1)he lost his day pass & 2)she realized (too late) that he was merely interested in hustling the boys












jk

[ClintonTyree]

121. I don't think it's "press" she has on her mind.....

more like "push". What a skank, and yes ladies, if it was a man doing it to a young girl I'd be just as critical, probably MUCH more so. This itchbay is out of control! Poor kid, can you imagine the psychological trauma this incident will cause him! The unrelenting image of Alley Kat invading your dreams forever!

[Cooley Hurd]

2. Koo-koo-ajoo, Mrs Robinson...

"Mrs Harris, I think you're trying to seduce me!"

[cat starbuck]

179. No Kidding.

Alternatively, she could be called Kat House Harris.

[okieinpain]

3. shoot, I'm jealous.

[mac56]

176. you have got to be kidding me

[okieinpain]

195. oh you have to admit, if she was a dem you would give me the

green light.

[fujiyama]

198. No

I would tell ya to get your eyes checked...

Or tell you to wait until the beer goggles went away!

[okieinpain]

213. oh come on now, that woman is not totally undeniably ugly. she

has a nice shape, and I bet you stacy and clinton could do wonders with her. I'm just keeping it real.

[fujiyama]

218. LOL

Fine, I'll admit she has nice legs...but that's as far as I'll go.

[wryter2000]

4. Has her eye shadow seeped into her brain?

What in hell is wrong with that woman?

[marmar]

7. "What in hell is wrong with that woman?"

My first thought would be, "A lot."

[Up2Late]

87. Just check out this clip from The Daily Show, it explains a lot.

<http://www.comedycentral.com/sitewide/media_player/play... >

[Late Slip]

115. That was too funny, sadly, I'm afraid it's probably true.

[ClintonTyree]

123. "Tit hugging Spandex".....

"Moxie and Spunk"........

[leftchick]

210. omg

tit hugging spandex??

[ElboRuum]

16. I think...

If you asked, "What in hell is not wrong with that woman?" you'd find the list a bit shorter.

[Bridget Burke]

49. I know it's shallow to criticize someone's looks, but....

She has decent "features" & lots of money to devote to her appearance.

Somehow, she still looks like a harpy.

[Kittycat]

84. Of course she's unhappy, she's a republican

[djeseru]

5. That guy deserves hazard pay.

Or at least an 'A' from the professor for the semester.

[LynneSin]

6. Look at this shot - she's playing footsies with him!

[Cooley Hurd]

8. The fat guy in the red shirt's watching & probably getting an erection...

...although he can't see it.

[rockymountaindem]

9. Not to mention groping his leg

I hope the Republicans are outraged by this complete disregard for morality!!!

[merbex]

14. I'm looking again and her best defense should be that she thought she was

taking part in 10 minute dating

[Sparkly]

17. LOL

[Vickers]

22. Seriously, a woman in her 60s should not sit like that...

...it plays hell on the circulation.

[okieinpain]

25. damn and she's sixty too. man oh man, to bad I would have to talk

to her.

[LynneSin]

32. any woman can look like that at age 60

if they're willing to spend the bucks on the surgery and botox.

She's got more botox in her than a truck full of dented cans of baby peas

[Sparkly]

38. I thought she was 49? nt

[okieinpain]

196. well she looks better than ann the man.

[RebelOne]

81. Why does everyone think that because you have hit your 60s

that you are ready for the nursing home?

[babsbunny]

122. I am 51 and just getting warmed up!

[RebelOne]

80. Hell, I am a woman in her 60s and I sit that way.

What's wrong with that? And Harris is 48 or 49.

[Vickers]

96. I explained it in the body of the message.

It's bad for your circulatory system...vascular problems are more common as we age.

[man4allcats]

101. Mind your own circulation!

Harris or no, if she's up for it and he is, what do you care?

[Vickers]

111. Sorry, I thought this was a discussion board, my apologies!

[Divine Discontent]

183. touche! I agree, how unlady like of Mrs. Harris! Gross!! n/t

www.cafepress.com/katherineharris

[jaysunb]

130. 10 points for you Dawg !

I sometimes forget how many young people are on this site. They seem to think people over 50--their parents included--are dead. Well...I got news for you kids, it's better now than ever. Maybe not as often, but waaay more satisfying.

As to Ms Cruella, as bad as I dislike her politics, I'd do her in a heart beat, and any young fellow like the one in the pic would be lucky to "get lucky" with a woman like her.

[Sequoia]

166. You're hard up.

[jaysunb]

173. ouch !!!!!

could it be true ????????

[Divine Discontent]

184. oh I'm sick!

OUCH is what you'd be saying if you stuck in in that venus fly trap.

on a side note, why to the latins have to stay up and make noise all night wherever I live? the whites have their drunk nights once a month, but the latin families are always letting their kids hoot and holler all damn night... sorry. just can't have any quiet around ever...

[orleans]

190. would that be like screwing the woman who screwed the country?

(with her little "stop the vote" shit in 2000?)

??would that make a guy feel more powerful or something??

or would it leave you with that empty, used, "i got screwed again" feeling?

[jaysunb]

193. Wow ! I hadn't thought about it like that

" screwing the woman that screwed the country "

OK . I give....she's a dog, and I'm only attracted to her money.

[DoYouEverWonder]

146. Your not running for US Senate

are behavior is at the least, inappropriate.

[MADem]

100. What do we tell the CHILDREN?????

Little Billy, sit up STRAIGHT! This is a restaurant, you must behave like a gentleman!

Awww, golly gee, why can't I??? Katherine HARRIS gets to sit like this!!!

[RedEarth]

64. In this picture it looks like she wants to play with it.... or kiss it

[Kittycat]

85. Oh My Dog! ROFL

[ClintonTyree]

125. That's an insult to the dog.........

now the dog I could love! Harris?

[SCRUBDASHRUB]

132. She has her hand on his leg (or under it I should say).

What a ho bag!

[Hardrada]

10. Did she grab his ass too?

[Mad_Dem_X]

11. There goes my lunch...

One more reason why she is a disgrace to working women everywhere.

ETA: She's a disgrace to women everywhere, period.

[ShortnFiery]

39. Dried up old bag O bones ... with one heck of a breast lift :P

She remindes me of some ex-movie stars who can't stand being just elegant and attractive ... Hello? Nope, you ain't sexually hot anymore ... deal with it!


Oh, there goes my lunch!

[savemefromdumbya]

120. LOL! agreed!

[merbex]

12. Does a serious woman(man for that matter) sit like that?

During an interview?

Hello, Floridians, this person's judgement on a most basic level is suspect.

Vote for her at your peril

[greekspeak]

207. He or she does if he or she is in heat

This woman is crazier than a shit-house rat. I am sure that Concerned Women for America loves this.

[Jack Rabbit]

13. It looks like she struck out with the young man.

Frankly, I think that's their business, as long as she takes "No" for an answer.

Perhaps those who think trysts are an impeachable offense have a different view of the matter.

[MADem]

102. I don't really care who she bangs, honestly

I just don't think she is very wise to do the first steps of the mating dance in a public forum. It's really unprofessional.

That said, I hope this doesn't knock her out of the running. She NEEDS to stay on the ballot through 12 May, so the GOP can't field a substitute/desperation candidate. I KNOW Jeb has said he won't run, but he's a Bush, and they've been known to lie.

[Bucky]

153. I agree. It's still funny.

There's a LOT of nookie going on at any political convention, btw, except maybe the Libertarian Party. If she was flirting, so what? If she struck out with reporter boy, do you realize her next best prospect was the dude in the red shirt? The young reporter might have made a nice impression on her, but this other guy would have left a BIG impression on her.



If you get my not too subtle inuendo.

[MADem]

158. That guy in the red shirt has a CLASSIC DICKDEW!!!!!

As in: His gut sticks out more than his dickdew!

A perfect match for Kitty, Moxie, and Spunk!

[LynneSin]

15. Could you imagine how the freepers would react if that was Hillary

and not their skank election fraudist Katherine Harris

[jackster]

18. okay - does anyone have the video

of her in Congress practically in the lap of the other Congressman with all the kids? I've got it at home but not here at work......

put that video with these pics and send hem out to all the XTIANS in Florida and see how many of them want this slut representing them

[soup]

30. Harris - Renzi video

http://www.thecanoodle.com/

[PegDAC]

57. Ricky graduated from high school

with my husband. Wish we could go to the reunion this year and take along a dvd of this!

[xxqqqzme]

74. wow, I've never seen that before...

she is a space invader - you know the people who get right in your face when talking 2 you. She is constantly touching renzi and the kid in the photos as well. I always wonder what these people want - the ones always invading your personal space.

[imouttahere]

178. The christians won't care, because...

they are puritanical hypocrites. How else to explain most of the repugs getting elected.

[brainshrub]

19. No fair! You beat me by ten minutes!

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.ph...

Darn you to heck!

[Elidor]

21. Lol! It deserves exposure in both forums

No one should miss this. Normally, I'd refrain from hotlinking to a friendly site, but some things just have to be seen.

[Sparkly]

20. Seriously -- hasn't anyone taken her aside and told her to STOP this??

Right or wrong, there IS such a thing as using one's looks and sex-appeal as "power," especially for young women who have little power. (Not saying it's good, not even saying it works.) Maybe she's grown so accustomed to thinking of herself that way, she can't realize it's time to STOP.

She's got plenty of power. There's no need for her to use sex, flirtation, or "Spunk and Moxie" the ways she does -- it fact, it's unseemly, inappropriate, and makes her seem far LESS serious than she could otherwise.

Hasn't anybody told her this???

[Elidor]

24. I've heard she surrounds herself with 'yes people'

And doesn't care for dissenting views. If any staffer dared reproach her, they'd probably be out the door quickly.

Oh, that's right, they are! All of them! BWA!!!

[fujiyama]

199. Sounds a lot

like her hero, GW Bush.

[babylonsister]

26. "Why don't we do it in the road"... I hope she does, and someone

tapes it, sending the tape to all media outlets far and wide.

[ClintonTyree]

128. Jebbie has been trying to get her to be more subdued.....

but she won't listen. You can take the girl out of the trailer park but you'll never take the trailer park out of the girl.

[aquart]

205. Nuh uh. This dame is trust fund trash.

Trailer parks are innocent of this crime.

[NewWaveChick1981]

23. She'll do all the good things for free publicity...

Hey, Skankharris, if you get that hot over a "nuclear conversation", I'll bet "fiscal responsibility" would send you over the edge.

Even if she offered free blowjobs to every male voter, I bet she'd still lose the election.

[LynneSin]

28. She should start a phone service for $2.99 a minute...

<in my best deep breathy Cruella de Harris Voice>

To hear me talk about Nuclear Powers, press one
To hear me talk about the war in Iraq press two
To hear me talk about the rights of unborn babies and vegetative-state women press three.

With the nutjob freepers out there she could probably make enough money to finance her campaign

[Elidor]

41. ROFL!

Don't give her any ideas!

[NewWaveChick1981]

44. LOL, but she'd still probably lose!

Political phone sex and free blowjobs are, I'm afraid, probably not enough to save her bizarre campaign. But hey, if Florida can have the 76-year-old "traveling breast exam doctor" guy, I guess Cruella could have her Freeper phone sex line. It certainly wouldn't make things any worse than they are!

[wordpix]

61. ahahahaha!

[Bucky]

142. Congratulations on 666 posts, New Wave Chick! Satan loves ya!

No wait, Satan would be the original Red Stater. The Blue Devils love ya.

[NewWaveChick1981]

215. Thanks, Bucky!

And to think that the Cruella post was my 666th... LOL! Couldn't have happened to a nicer politician.

[bear425]

27. Oh, my eyes - my eyes! n/t

[IselaB]

29. This woman doesn't need to be a Senator

She needs to take some time off to deal with her "fading youth" issues.

[Deep13]

31. Her fragrance: Eau de Trainwreck

[wordpix]

62. LOL

[neuvocat]

145. Heh.

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

33. isn't that Prince's darling Nikki?

[last1standing]

34. This looks like sexual harrassment to me.

It's not the worst case I've ever seen, but if we reversed the roles and had a sixty year old man rubbing his foot up and down a young female reporter's leg, there would be severe consequenses. Think of Cruella as Bill Clinton and the reporter a 22 year old woman and imagine how the freeps would howl. Instead, they're probably over there talking about how they wish they were that reporter.

Pretty disgusting to me.

[Sparkly]

36. Good point!!! nt

[NoAmericanTaliban]

35. Cruela, Will you be my Sugar Mommy, I need a new car & cash

[NoPasaran]

37. Nuclear technology, eh?

So that's what they're calling it these days!

[Chiyo-chichi]

51. She's fission for some action and hoping that his fuel rod is loaded.

She's asking him to eject his spent fuel into her primary reactor.

[YDogg]

73. LOL

[NJCher]

89. mahty fahn wordsmithing

OMG, that was funny.

Visited your journal 'cuz of it, too.

Now I can't stop singing "before DU..."




Cher

[Chiyo-chichi]

93. Cool, Cher. Maybe you could record it!

Or are you not *that* Cher?

[NJCher]

105. I'm the real, original Cher

Hollywood types are imitators.




Cher

[Mr_Jefferson_24]

40. Is this all she needed?...

...Could we have prevented her vital role in helping Chimpy steal Florida, and thus the presidency, in 2000, merely by enlisting the services of a few brave young men to service her? Did Jeb fill this need back in 2000? My GOD.

[Crankie Avalon]

42. Next she'll be saying she wants to use a falafel on him...

...She's the Bill O'Reilly of Congress.

[colorado_ufo]

133. IDEA!

Let's get those two together - maybe they would be so busy with each other they would stop trying to screw the rest of the world.

[fujiyama]

200. But imagine their offspring!

Ewwww! That is one VERY scary thought.

[brainshrub]

43. If you are registered with Reddit: Vote up here:

http://reddit.com/info/4rm7/details

If a few people vote on this, we can kick it to the Reddit frontpage.

[klook]

45. Most guys prefer humans

Look at that posture! How did she manage to sit on her leg like that? I think this is proof that Harris is some kind of insect creature from another galaxy.

[Taliesihne]

46. Hmm

It's a bit sexist to flame her for something that male politicians on both sides of the aisle do everyday.

This really isn't all that newsworthy.

[brainshrub]

48. Totally agree. But it's still funny.

Agree that this isn't newsworthy, but it's funny as heck and illustrates how desperate Harris is for support.

Or put another way:



Welcome to DU.

[Taliesihne]

52. Hehe

I get the humor and agree it's funny

I'm just not so sure she was doing this for the campaign as oppossed to looking for a cabana boy for the evening. I mean, if you are going to sleep with a journalist for a positive story, do it with a newspaper that has a voting audience, not a college rag.

Thanks for the welcome!

[Bitter Cup]

53. If a male polittician does it we should flame him

and we should nail him in the media for it. Being a gross sexual harasser shouldn't be a gender issue and I'm an equal opportunity flamer.

But lets be honest here as well...no one else is pushing the envelope with this mid-life-crisis LOOK AT ME BS nearly as much as Cruella. She is a step ahead of the pack.

[Taliesihne]

54. It's a stretch

To paint this as sexual harrasment, it really is.

And yes, she is. I just think her policy is all that needs to be attacked, not her sexual proclivities.

[Bitter Cup]

67. Seems like she is overtly using her *cough* sexuality

as a means (ineffective?) of advancing herself politically. Therefore it becomes an issue in my book. But that isn't a gender issue imho. it's an activity issue.

[Taliesihne]

72. Not really

Looks more like she's trying to pick up a coed and is getting shut down.

If she was going to sleep with a journalist to get good press, she would have picked a newspaper that people read.

Just my opinion, of course.

[NJCher]

94. let's play turn the tables

I'm a young female reporter for a college newspaper. I interview a male politician running for office. He steers me to a table and brushes his foot up against mine. With his knee only half-an inch from mine, he sits suggestively and says he wants to talk about nuclear technology.




Cher

[Taliesihne]

104. Even with

the tables turned, I still think you'd be hard pressed to prove sexual harrasment.

[NJCher]

106. guess you've never been in the business world

I've seen more than a few cases of sexual harassment filed on less than that.




Cher

[Taliesihne]

109. Good for you

I still disagree. Just because someone disagrees with you on something doesn't mean they know nothing about the situation at hand. There are several factors that go into defining what sexual harassment is, I'm not sure that they are all met here.

[Protagoras]

165. Welcome to DU

I sense that there may be a couple versions of "harassment" being used here. There is certainly a legal sense of it that may or may not apply. But there is also a more casual sense that is just creepy, gross, and tacky regardless of if it reaches a legally actionable standard.

Regardless of the word you use, Harris strikes me as a crazy, oversexualized, moral hypocrite and I don't much care how you label that.

[PassingFair]

169. You think that doesn't happen every day?

It does.
Politicians
Businessmen
Anyone who thinks they might be able to buy you.

[Elidor]

55. Really? I'd gladly post pics of Trent Lott rubbing up on a young reporter

But a candidate for national office who professes a conservative christian faith (and who is married) to be flirting so overtly with someone in a public place reeks of hypocrisy and desperation. It also makes her look very unprofessional.

Flirting is indeed done by many people in congress. But that doesn't make it acceptable. For Harris, this is merely an embarrassing faux pas. For a male congresscritter, it would brand him a Dirty Old Man.

And there are indeed many things more newsworthy. But they aren't as funny. Harris's Incredible Imploding Campaign is the best comedy I've seen in years.

[Taliesihne]

58. Would you do the same

For Barack Obama or Mark Warner?

I didn't know she was married though. Now that's a scary thought

[Elidor]

65. I would, indeed

Anyone who reflects badly on the party should be made a pariah. If Barack Obama did something like this, I'd be utterly revolted. Fortunately, most creeps and losers who run for office recognize the GOP as their true spiritual home. When Democrats act reprehensibly, it's the exception; when republicans do so, it's the rule.

[Taliesihne]

71. I don't disagree with that

I just don't much care what politicians from either side of the aisle do in their personal lives.

This looks like a slightly drunken woman trying to get some for the evening.

But thanks for responding honestly

[LynneSin]

86. So if that was Hilary rubbing up against the reporter, repukes would

ignore it?

Plu-lease - this deserves all the attention it's getting

[Taliesihne]

88. I don't know about you

But I don't base my ethical, political, or moral standards on what the most corrupt group of people in history do - I tend to look for a good example, as I know I'm capable of conducting myself according to higher standards

[Virginia Dare]

90. Well, you're no fun!

welcome anyway!

[Taliesihne]

91. Hehe

I flame with the best of them.

I just don't agree here. Even nasty ass people like Katherine Harris should be able to hit on someone without it becoming national
news.

If I had to read about all of my strikeouts in a blog, I wouldn't have time to do anything else

[Virginia Dare]

97. It was probably all a setup by Bushco anyway...

but the more I see Katherine Harris humiliated, the happier I am.

[LuckyLib]

137. Harris can hit on whomever she wants. She just better be prepared

to have it on page one in an instant. She is a public person, seeking public office. And if she can't come up with better manners, better decorum than that, she needs to find other work. Period.

[TheMadMonk]

148. Why not? She professes to be a devout x-tian. Yes?

Hmmm?? Thou shalt not commit adultery?

That I think just about covers it.

[PassingFair]

170. Come ON....

Did you really take a good LOOK at the CANOODLE?
This little "out-take" was conveniently WIPED
off the intard net for MONTHS. I don't know how
they suppressed it.
When I found it, I downloaded it:

I don't know how to copy it, so take a good look
at the link up-thread...

This is whilst Congress is IN SESSION!

She is PRACTICALLY LICKING him!

And all the while, the congressman is nattering on
about Uranium Enrichment plants in Iran!

[LynneSin]

92. Welll, I try to do the same thing too

but hell, this picture is like shooting fix in a barrel - who can resist it

[Taliesihne]

95. Obviously

A certain Jr. Journalist was able to resist it

But yeah, this is too easy...

[SlavesandBulldozers]

98. defending Harris?

lol. pitiful.

[Taliesihne]

112. Yeah

Like your reading comprehension.

[SlavesandBulldozers]

212. oh my reading comprehension is a problem?

how so do you think?

And while your at it why don't you tell me other things that are newsworthy and not, i prefer to have a Harris-apologist determine newsworthiness on DU so whenever you could chime in that would be fucking fantastic.

[Taliesihne]

232. Probably

Because I'm not defending her. I think she's a pathetic human being. However, I'm not in junior high and don't really care to comment on who she's banging - I'd rather focus on her politics. Imagine that, eh?

[MADem]

107. Flame her? It's inappropriate, no matter who does it

Picture Joe Biden rubbing his foot against Campell Brown in that fashion, and being photographed in the act. Like that wouldn't be front-page news?? And it IS newsworthy. That said, I hope it doesn't derail her, because she needs to stay in the running through the second week of May.

[Taliesihne]

114. Again

I'm not so sure that she wasn't just hitting on him. People do that you know, even politicians.

She's such a fruit loop that I just don't think it's necessary to paint her as a harlot. To each their own though

[MADem]

119. In which case, she is incredibly STUPID

One doesn't behave in that fashion when running for the Senate. At least not in a PUBLIC place, surrounded by journalists with cameras; though I don't endorse the behavior in any situation. Her actions were clearly inappropriate, whether she was just being flirtatious or desirous of banging his lights out. And it suggests that she lacks common sense, at best, or is as dumb as a Bush, at worst.

[colorado_ufo]

135. She probably believes the maxim

(and I don't mean Maxim) that there is no such thing as bad publicity.

[ClintonTyree]

129. I disagree.....

if any male politician was photographed doing this it could become a VERY big deal. Especially if said politician was a Democrat.

[Sparkly]

163. Are you saying male politicians act like THAT and nobody flames??

If a male politician played footsie with a young female reporter, it wouldn't be newsworthy?

[Momgonepostal]

168. it is newsworthy, but not because she's female

If someone caught Rumsfeld or Cheney or Santorum on camer\ae hitting on someone like that we'd be all over it in a heartbeat. There's no double standard here.

[Penndems]

174. Agree 1000%

When a right-winger running for public office portrays herself as a paragon of Christian values and virtues gets photographed trying to get jiggy with a young reporter from a college newspaper, YEAH - that IS news. Jeez, those people are hypocrites.

And I suspect this isn't the first time she's tried this stunt.

[leftofthedial]

47. still, it's sort of refreshing to see one of them honest enough

not to hide the fact that she is a whore

[Vogon_Glory]

50. If You're Going To Do Tacky Tabloid Journalism...

If you all are going to do tacky Rupert Murdoch-style tabloid journalism, why can't you wait to produce the soiled sheets as well as graphic photos of Congressional representative What's-Her-Name doing the nasty?

[graywarrior]

56. The visual is bad enough, but the thought of her conversing

about nuclear technology makes my skin crawl.

The woman is mentally ill.

[Poll_Blind]

59. The richest woman may be a skank, the poorest a princess.

I think in her case, power skank is appropriate.

PB

[PegDAC]

60. Run, Jason!!

Run like the wind!

[hvn_nbr_2]

63. Clearer pics

The pics are so dark that it's hard to see anything. So I enhanced them. Here they are. The only changes I made were to lighten, increase contrast, and crop out extraneous areas.

[RedEarth]

68. Good work.....

[Taliesihne]

75. Is that a bassett?

In your pic?

[Elidor]

76. Nice cleanup job!

Yeah, I always put my leg up against that of the person I'm talking to. My god, she's even rubbing his foot. LOL! I'm wondering if her husband is very, very old...

[arcane1]

110. looks like boko-maru to me

[Caoimhe]

66. I haven't sat on my leg like that since high school

and I was wearing jeans and tennis shoes. It's a very provacative pose imho, esp with high heels and short skirt. This woman is simply tasteless and is using the only thing she knows how to use, her body.

Poor kid looks VERY uncomfortable. On behalf of my gender, this is embarrassing!

[Bleacher Creature]

69. May 12th . . . May 12th . . . May 12th

That is the filing deadline for the Senate race in Florida. Once we pass it, no other GOP candidate can get on the ballot. And if Harris is the only GOP candidate to run against Nelson, it is going to be a fun general election with very little stress. Plus, we can use our resources in more pressing contests.

[CoffeeCat]

70. OMG! She thinks she's Marion Wormer--Dean Wormer's wife from Animal House

I'll bet this was the discussion they had at the table, too!!!

Young Reporter: Mine's bigger.
Marion "Kattin Around Harris" Wormer: What?
Young Reporter: My cucumber. It's bigger.
Young Reporter: I think vegetables can be very sensuous, don't you?
Marion "Kattin Around Harris" Wormer: No, vegetables are sensual. People are sensuous.
Young Reporter: Right. Sensual. That's what I meant. My name's Eric Stratton. People call me Otter.
Marion "Kattin Around Harris" Wormer: My name's Marion. People call me Mrs. Wormer.
Young Reporter: Oh, we have a Dean Wormer at Faber.
Marion "Kattin Around Harris" Wormer: How interesting. I have a husband named Dean Wormer at Faber. Still want to show me your cucumber?

BWAHAAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!

Do these deviants ever stop?????

[ZanZaBar]

77. I'd hit it......

.....with a big wet trout!

[oc2002]

78. get back to us when you have NUDE PHOTO

of Mrs Harris and a reporter...

[mconvente]

79. hahah - another cruella episode into the twilight zone

All of her downfallen escapades are better than Jerry Springer or Maury IMO!!

[Bucky]

82. Hey, I'd hit that...

..with a custard pie.

Normally I believe love has no politics, but even us horny old perverts got some standards.

[Bucky]

83. And damn, read the article. She got a $2800 dinner from a lobbyist

If I shelled out $2800 for a dinner, by criminy dessert better be served under the table!

[NJCher]

103. not to mention

The bizarre bit about her reimbursing the recipe.

It sounds like no one from her office knows how to handle her.




Cher

[maxsolomon]

99. mee ow

such a catty thread.

cruella uses what she's got to get what she wants. and she's got some very impressive bolt-ons, in addition to some nice legs. i'm sure it worked on him - it would work on me. women are pretty much designed to do this to men. or men are designed to be susceptible to this tactic.

[Wetzelbill]

108. Well, it's official, I may never want to have sex again

Image... scorched... in...... head...

[sdfernando]

113. Addicted to sex maybe???

I wouldn't be surprised if she is a sex addict. Shows a lot of the signs.

[Jose Diablo]

116. From the picture

I imagine this story ends with him hoisting her to the edge of the table, standing between her knees and...and...well the FCC would ban this site if I told the rest of the story.

[Mr_Spock]

118. She's as shallow as they come!

She's not senator material - by a long shot...

[ChairmanAgnostic]

126. but the cleavage is deeper to make up for it. can you imagine a threesome

with Harris and Coulter. lawdy, lawdy, lawdy. I'd have to give up sex if that were the only choice.

[Mr_Spock]

134. .

[fujiyama]

201. You should be shot

out in a dark alley for mentioning the words "threesome", "Anne Coulter", and "Catherine Harris" in the same sentence.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

211. ow ow ow ow ow!

Hey, I had bad ice in my scotch when that thought crossed that vast, dank, empty recesses of my mind.

[fujiyama]

217. All is forgiven

What's the drink of choice tonight?

[ChairmanAgnostic]

221. spent two hours teaching spousette the finer points of pool.

being a short japanese girl, she has never played before. But, she is learning fast. So, without the bad ice, it is back to scotch.

and you?

[StarTurtle]

224. Well, thanks a lot for THAT image.

There isn't enough brain bleach in the world to wipe it out.

[ChairmanAgnostic]

226. Think of Jeb Bush as president. That ought to replace it quickly enough.

Or President Frist. or President McCain. or President Rice.

[underpants]

124. Oh YES do that

[Catherine Vincent]

127. She's just a big flirt.

And she likes them young. Nothing wrong with that.

[Hissyspit]

131. It's the delivering of a stolen election, corruption of democracy...

incompetence and hypocrisy that's a turn-off for me.

[Monk06]

149. FYI cat_girl25 >>>>>>>>>>>

It's a myth that men can't say no to a seductive woman.

College reporter;


"No, I don't have any other appointments today so I can
definitely fit into you.......I mean.......fit you in."

"No, I don't have a room in this hotel. Do you?"

"No, I don't wear underwear when I wear shoes without socks."

"No, I've never done it in that position. Does it give you cramps?"

"No, you're not making me uncomfortable........what was that
last question again?"

"No, I don't mind you rubbing your shoe against my leg. Are
those real Ferragamos?"

"No, my parents are not at home. Why do you ask?"

"No, I've never seen that scene in Basic Instinct. What's
it abou........whoa!!!!!!!"

"No, it's not cold in here. My hand always trembles when
I take notes."

"No, I'm not a Republican but what difference would that make?"

"No I don't kiss and tell unless the sex was really bad."

"No, I've never heard of anyone doing that with Champagne."

"No,really? There's such a thing as erectile dysfunction?"

"No, I've never rode bareback.......on a horse."

"No, I don't like small breasts. How small are we talking about?"

[jobycom]

136. Not unusual for female politicians to schmooze that way

Not saying all women do it, obviously, but I know a few local politicians here in Austin that speak to me that way every time I meet them. They are all Democrats. They lean close, they put their hands suggestively on my arm or lower back, the push against me and flirt, they lower their voices... it's pretty standard faire. In a bar I'd swear they were hitting on me, but in a political situation I realize they are just trying to charm me, to gain my support (this was when my support meant something to them).

Politicians use whatever they have to influence people who can help them. Men with that type of charm use it. Women with that type of charm do, too. Harris was talking to a young reporter so she wanted a favorable impression from him. So she poured on the flirtacious charm. Works on a lot of guys. Fails on a lot, too.

This won't be covered by the MSM because it's nothing. Reporters have seen it frequently, and I wouldn't be surprised if Hillary does it. Or the Kerry and Gore daughters. Heck, I've met reporters who do it themselves. You use what you have.

Now, if that's a room key she's holding out for him, or if they've got footage inside a hotel room, that's a different story. But if this is all there is, then no one's going to cover it.

[LynneSin]

138. Consider this - would you expect to see Hillary, Barbara, Nancy, etc

doing something like this? They know better because if them or ANY female democratic politician pulled a stunt like this they would be crucified by the press. However, I'll bet you $10 that outside of possibly Countdown, we'll see nothing about this on mainstream news.

This is NOT standard behavior from any democratic female politician, maybe for republicans but not our gals. They're better than this

[jobycom]

220. Sorry, but yes, I would.

And the politicians I was talking about ARE Democrats, so our "gals" do it, too.

[Elidor]

144. Good points

I don't claim this is earth-shattering. I do consider it unprofessional, but perhaps my naiveté has overtaken my cynicism at last. Still, I've never really cared for the "everybody does it" defense. You know Dems who behave this way? I find it tacky and repellent. Do they play footsie with you in dark, smoky bars? Lol. Maybe I don't want to know the answers to my own questions here. Just when I think that I'm cynical enough, I find that in fact I am very far behind.

(I can't believe this made the front page, lol. Not the post I'd have picked.)

[PassingFair]

171. But, but, what about

"The Canoodle"?

Seriously, this woman is a loose cannon.

I hope she loses it and starts spilling
everything she know.

'Cause I bet she knows PLENTY!

[fujiyama]

202. I'm sorry

I can't imagine any woman in a place of high power (especially as exclusive as that of the senate) of either party behaving this way. I know there have been some fairly attractive House candidates (most of them Dems - lucky for us!), but I have not seen any indication of them acting this way.

My governor is fairly good looking (Jennifer Granholm of MI) and I can't imagine her in a low cut skirt sitting that way playing footsies with a reporter...

I do admit, maybe standards are different in different parts of the country (the concept of personal space is different in different parts of the country) and this likely is just her being "friendly". And I'm sure in smaller local politics, this might be considered normal.

But not for a senate candidate.

Personally, I don't really care that she's trying to get a little action. But I do think it's providing for some great laughs. I really hope she's the nominee. The campaign would be a blast!

[Bushy Being Born]

227. Most sensible post in the entire thread!

[Ian David]

228. Suggestively rubbing her foot along his leg...

Is a little bit over the line, isn't it?

I don't think Hillary would do that.

I'm not sure Hillary's shoes even come off her feet.

[sandrakae]

139. Is that a key to her hotel room she is handing him?

[Renew Deal]

140. Who do I have to fuck to get into the Senate?

[Bucky]

143. Apparently the taxpayers

If you're a Republican, that is. If you're a Democrat, meh, you still got a shot.

[onehandle]

141. Go, Kate, Go!

Seduce the state of Florida.

Keep 'em high and proud.

[DaveColorado]

147. Well I'm a young guy and I'd do her

What the hell.

And even though I dislike her politics and her role in putting the shurb in, I don't think it's fair to beat up on someone for simply being human.

Our purposes are pretty simple in life: survive and replicate our genes

[ShortnFiery]

150. I hope you'd use a condom as a given ...

and shut your eyes. Once guys hit 25 y.o. I didn't know they had to frequent the middle ager community.

[Danieljay]

151. Is this what we've stooped to? Come on, there are much bigger battles.n/t

[ShortnFiery]

152. You haven't seen that video in the congress, have you?

Shameless.

[Late Slip]

154. Maybe so, but Repugs always claim the moral high ground when it comes to

values, and social conservatives are big movers and shakers in their party. This picture just reinforces that they don't walk the talk. They aren't to be believed.

[Bucky]

155. Here's the difference: This is just fun, not fighting a battle.

This is silly gossip, good for a snicker. It won't be used in any substantive way to campaign against Ms Harris. It's not part of a smear. She won't get impeached over it. I'm saying this as someone who thought the "big tits" joke on the Daily Show went over the line from catty (which is sorta acceptable) to sexist (which clearly is never okay).

But this is only snickering about what she did--apparently strike out trying to flirt with a cute young thang. If I saw Ted Kennedy do this, I'd have a good laugh about it too.

[fujiyama]

203. Are we not allowed

to have a laugh once in a while? Is this what Harris' campaign has stooped to? Her and her campaign are a joke...she's fair game to mock.

Plus, it's Saturday...relax.

[Chiyo-chichi]

156. I have the complete transcript of their nuclear conversation.

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.ph...

[LoZoccolo]

157. THIS HAS LEGS!

Intended.

[DaveColorado]

159. I'm not there yet (25)

I'll be 22 in another month.

[Lena inRI]

160. Looks like Cruella's a contortionist. . .

[Pacifist Patriot]

161. I smell a double standard.

I'm not Harris fan, quite the contrary. But...

[Hardrada]

162. She's just a "close talker."

[toymachines]

164. poor dude

He is all backed into a corner. legs tucked back. I am a journalist his age and would be writing a story about that situation right now. Ehhhh

[Canuckistanian]

167. Hey, honey, how'd you like to go for a ride in my car?

It's a COUGAR.

[mitchum]

172. I'd hit it...again...and again...and again...and again...and again...

and a couple of kicks, for good measure.

[meowfire]

177. So what if she wants to get some

I have more respect for that than politicians professing to subscribe to Christian values while doing otherwise off camera. I don't see why the public attempts to hold public representatives to hire standards than they do themselves. Within reason, I could care less what these people do in their private lives, so long as they don't interfere with mine. Now if the politician is violating their professed belief of bringing Christianity to the universe, that is of course fair game. But this feels very mean spirited.

[fujiyama]

204. That's the thing

She DOES profess to subscribe to Christian values.

She's a damn hypocrite. It's clear she's trying to use her sexuality for political gain.

Personally, I don't view this as sexual harrasement or even scandelous. I don't even care if she's trying to get a little action. But it sure is funny to see a women acting this way while running for the "most exlusive club in the world".

She's a joke and I think it's worth a few laughs.

[Vickers]

208. "But this feels very mean spirited."

Fuck her, and fuck George and fuck Dick and fuck Condi and fuck KKKarl and fuck all the rest of them that are fucking up my country.

I'm tired of some supposed "good manners" bullshit getting in the way of calling them on their crap.

[GreenInNC]

230. i think she would be fun in the sack

[IronLionZion]

175. This kind of stuff happens to me all the time

I just assume that some older women are like that, very touchy-feely and in your personal space calling you honey and sugar. I usually humor them, despite the fact that they may even have kids my age. Maybe I'm just too nice/naive, but it doesn't seem like harassment.

*sigh*, if only girls my own age would show me some attention.

for the record I'm a 22 year old straight male.

Everybody needs some lovin.

[Divine Discontent]

180. el sleezo herself!

A WIDOW'S MITE IS ALL IT TAKE TO REACH RIGHT OVER INTO THAT HOT MAN'S PANTS!



She makes me ill..

this website has all kinds of stickers and shirts for her - should we send her the widow's mite one?


www.cafepress.com/katherineharris


won't you support the woman for Senate, today? lol I LOVE the poster...


what a witch.

[Autonomy]

181. what's this doing on the homepage?

i despise katherine harris, but so what if she wants to get laid? the guy is 18+, right? is there a hypocrisy issue here i am missing? have we turned puritan or something?

lots of questions. i just don't get it. not that i didn't find the pics irresistable to look at in the train wreck sense.

[keopeli]

206. There's nothing puritanical about calling out hypocrisy. n/t

[cliss]

182. This is a great thread.

Hilarious! I laughed my way down the thread.

It goes to show you: there are some very witty people here at the DU!!!

[McCamy Taylor]

185. A southern woman should know better....

She looks like she is asking him to grade her new *ahem* appendeges.

189. broke hag mountin'..

[Lexingtonian]

192. This is a problem?

(sighs) Okay, I'll volunteer to take the kid's place. If no one else will....

Hey, I've been known to make converts to the cause, if you know what I mean....

Oh, and there'd be photographers waiting at the door when I leave her apartment the next morning. For some reason....

[freethought]

194. I personally don't care if Katherine Harris chases after younger men

Big f_____g deal! She's not the first and definitely won't be the last. This does say that,although she may be politically ambitious, she's not that smart. One would figure that she would realize that eyes are going to on her and coming on to some guy isn't going to look to good, especially in Florida where there is a definite "family values" voting presence. I'm sure that photos of Harris playing footsies with some college age kid isn't going to sit well with the religous conservatives. Just shows to me that she is just as flawed an human as anyone else.
In the horseback photo, from the neck down, the scenery wasn't too bad looking.
I may catch flack for this but this reminds me of what an ex college roommate used to say when I was going to school back in the late 80s. "Do it for your country!"

Any word if the guy took her up on the "offer"?

[michael_1166]

197. I agree with you -

it's not as if she tied the guy down to that chair (yet). He could have simply walked away.

But on the other hand, imagine a role reversal: A 40-something male politician doing something comparable to a barely-20 female reporter. There would be screams of scandal all over the place and his political life would probably be over. He'd wake up daily to the sounds of the local feminist group wanting his head up to the day he severely humiliates himself in front of a camera team and begs for mercy.

[Botany]

209. And here's to you

Mrs. Robinson .. P. Simon


And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson,
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo wo wo).
God bless you, please, Mrs. Robinson,
Heaven holds a place for those who pray (Hey hey hey, hey hey hey).

We'd like to know
A little bit about you
For our files.
We'd like to help you learn
To help yourself.
Look around you. All you see
Are sympathetic eyes.
Stroll around the grounds
Until you feel at home.

And here's to you, Mrs. Robinson,
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo wo wo).
God bless you, please, Mrs. Robinson,
Heaven holds a place for those who pray (Hey hey hey, hey hey hey).

Hide it in a hiding place
Where no one ever goes.
Put it in your pantry with your cupcakes.
It's a little secret,
Just the Robinsons' affair.
Most of all, you've got to hide it
from the kids.

Coo coo ca-choo, Mrs. Robinson,
Jesus loves you more than you will know (Wo wo wo).
God bless you, please, Mrs. Robinson,
Heaven holds a place for those who pray (Hey hey hey, hey hey hey).

Sitting on a sofa
On a Sunday afternoon,
Going to the candidates' debate,
Laugh about it,
Shout about it,
When you've got to choose,
Every way you look at it, you lose.

Where have you gone, Joe DiMaggio?
A nation turns its lonely eyes to you (Woo woo woo).
What's that you say, Mrs. Robinson?
"Joltin' Joe has left and gone away" (Hey hey hey, hey hey hey).

[KeSs]

214. Who cares?

Good for the reporter. I would have no problem if an older woman would come on to me

[tanyev]

216. Sure, if you were at a bar or a club.

I expect a United States Representative at a campaign event to conduct themselves in a more professional manner.

[tom_paine]

219. That would be like having sex with Ilse Koch

"she was fat, dumpy, and had bad skin"

Or perhaps Livia Augusta in her dessicated old age, after she murdered Augustus, her husband.

Besides the blackened soul of Katherine Harris is so disgusting in and of itself, even if she loocked like Lindsey Lohan, having sex with someone so corrupt and evil would make a man's member turn to ice & fall off.

[lilypad_567]

222. nice girl

the nice girl with the really big breast...have anyone ever notice that katherine harris have really big breast...i am a girl but the first thing that i notice was her breast...Question: is katherine harris brest real or fake, and if u said fake, how much do you think she pay for it?

[wizdum]

223. The only thing missing is the paper bag over her head. n/t

[StElsewhere]

225. Dear Ms. Harris......

The poor thing has been given some very bad advice. Example: Hey, here's an idea. Why not run for the Senate?
Example of good advice: Honey, try taking your make-up mirror off the "whore" setting. See? It's so simple!

[Ian David]

229. Innocent or not, this leads to what I've been saying for years...

if any of us find ourselves in a similar situation with a Repuke and/or "Family Value" hypocrite...

For gawd's sake, take the bait.

Jump on it.

Take the bait and document it and take it to the press.

I'm not saying you have to "take one for the team."

If Katherine Harris makes it clear she wants to go to bed with you, then at least get her topless in your bed while your camcorder hums quietly in the corner.

If Rick Santorum starts rubbing your thigh... get pictures of him on your couch masturbating to a gay porno before you tell him you've got a headache.

In fact, if any of you are "hotties," then go forth and put yourself in front of these people and actively seek to engage and document their infidelity.

And get the evidence. Audio. Video. DNA. Anything you legally can.

And do NOT commit blackmail or extortion.

Do not make demands.

Do not give warnings.

Just take your evidence and release it early on a Monday morning.

By November, we should have a hundred blue dresses of our own.

[ToolTex]

231. With her face a 'Cousin It' hairdo would be an improvement.
