1. The White House and Karl Rove are trying to recruit state House speaker

Allen Bense into the primaries to challenge Katherine Harris. I believe Jeb wants Bense to run, although Harris will likely get the nomination. Katherine Harris just ensured that Bill Nelson gets re-elected, and that will piss off Repugs because they view Nelson as vulnerable.

3. Let Bense win the GOP primary...

...and watch Kathy scream "VOTE FRAUD! AND I CAN PROVE IT!!!"

Then watch Jeb and Diebold sweat.

4. It Should Be Entertaining

Bense is slimy but not on the order of Harris. Either way, if the final results are accruate in November of 2006, Nelson wins!

16. "I believe Jeb wants Bense to run..."

What gives? I thought Jeb and Kathy were the state's "First Couple?" Now I read that Jeb wants someone else to run for Senate. What happened? A little spat? Lover's quarrel? Maybe one isn't spending enough time with the other? C'mon...give us the tawdry details!

2. Let 'em railroad each other

The more GOP infighting the safer this seat gets.

5. Finally something good coming out of my State

It's tough living in Florida....

6. Hear hear

I might start raising funds to have her exorcised from our state. Most priests would agree that's the only way to deal with demonic possession.

Might stop the bad hurricane seasons, too! ;)

[Lochloosa]

7. I always thought she was the reason for the hurricanes...

God punishing the repugs...notice how they headed toward the center of the state and the panhandle....the reddest parts..

9. Ha! I thought the same thing

Indian River county is 72% registered Republican and Vero Beach got slammed, not once, but twice. I think there's a message here.


:evilgrin:

Good riddance to Harris, the evil Cow.

14. And Ivan hit the panhandle...

where the Republicans rule the roost.

[Cocoa]

8. I predict Harris will withdraw

the GOP is very uneasy about her running, I predict she'll wake up one morning next to a horse's head.

[Lochloosa]

10. Not a chance....

Harris will run this into the ground....after all...She deserves to be a senator....

[Gothmog]

11. Harris is best possible opponent for Nelson

Rove and Bush has been trying to keep Harris from running. This could be great news for the Democrats.

13. They'll settle on a candiadate

and steal the seat. This is Florida.

15. Few people seen more reprehensible than Harris...even GOP types

Think she is poison.

Mostcitizens,w/the exception of the Rabid Right,think she manipulated the #'s to get bush into the WH. People might be R/Centrist/L; but no one likes someone who will mess w/ballot results. Regardless of the outcome,everyone is cheated, and that does not bode well w/the citizenry. Her District is filled w/RWnuts...but even they, can only take so much.
