Rep. (Katherine) Harris lent $250,000 to sagging Senate bid in Fla.

[kskiska]

Rep. Katherine Harris (R-Fla.) lent $250,000 of her own money late last year to her sagging Senate campaign, a Republican familiar with campaign operations said.

The congresswoman is expected to announce next week that she raised roughly $1 million in the final quarter of 2005, said former Florida GOP Executive Director Geoffrey Becker. That total will include Harris’s personal contribution.

Many other Florida Republicans confirmed the $1 million fundraising figure but declined to speak publicly about the Harris campaign.

“If she has any pride, she’ll be out in a month,” said a Republican with close ties to Harris campaign officials. “If she cares about her party, she’ll be out in a month. Otherwise, the Senatorial Committee won’t do a thing and she’ll get beat by 15 points.”

23. Forget (for the moment) about the fake tits

Am I the only one to notice that, for a change, her name is LITERALLY tied to a horse's ass!

25. Good one!

And if you go to anorexic sights - pro ana-, one of top symptoms is self-loathing. I always remember that when thinking about andy coulter. Harris doesn't look anorexic to me, she looks like a dumb sh@#, and like you said, a horses ass.

[oneoftheboys]

30. Wow...!

If I lived in Florida, I'd have to try to change her mind. About being a Republican, that is.

UF's Home of the Gators - is named after her grandfather.

[Orangepeel]

28. she's an heiress. very wealthy

some sort of orange grove money

(more proof that money can't buy class or taste)

[pinerow]

31. Her family is one of the richest in Florida...

the Ben Hill Griffin clan...deep into Citrus, Agri-business and the like...she got her money the old fashioned way...she was a member of the lucky sperm club, in other words, she inherited it...

Don't listen to them Katherine!
Lend yourself another quarter mill!

[soup]

20. Ha! Lackluster 3rd quarter. Poor Cruella.

>>Since entering the Senate race last summer, Harris has faced several hurdles: opposition from the Republican National Committee and the National Republican Senatorial Committee; lackluster third-quarter fundraising that campaign aides attributed to Hurricane Katrina; and staff shakeups, including Campaign Manager Jim Dornan’s resignation.<<

>>At the end of the third quarter, Sept. 30, Nelson had $6.5 million on hand, having raised $1.9 million during that time. In contrast, Harris had $470,000, having raised just less than $500,000.<<

Geeze, *sniffle, I'm needing a kleenex here. The tears are flowing

26. Is it illegal to send monopoly money?

[mopinko]

27. bwahahahaha nt

[BlueInPhilly]

29. Agree - Let's send her some $

$1, $2... whatever, just to lull her into that fall sense of security. Then we can go kick her ass this November.

[trogdor]

32. Gee, Kat.

Why don't you just play the Lotto with the quarter mil?

[Mountainman]

33. I would like to see her turn on the repukes and write a book telling

all she knows about the fix of the 2000 election. Then become a liberal and spend the rest of her life fighting repukes.

[Catchawave]

34. What a waste of time and money.....

"Katherine, Move On!"
