Rollins Wanted Harris to Quit...
'Ed Rollins, the chief strategist for Rep. Katherine Harris (R-FL), recommended "she abandon her bid for the U.S. Senate because it would be a 'tough row to hoe' given the numerous setbacks the campaign had suffered," the Orlando Sentinel reports. But Harris refused.

Rollins said that he and other top advisers "worried about Harris' sluggish fundraising, her inability to generate excitement among top Republicans and future fallout from illegal campaign contributions she took from a defense contractor who has since pleaded guilty to bribing a California lawmaker."'

1. What is the point anymore?
It's been clear for awhile she wasn't going to win this, but now she's worse off than before.

11. This Has Gotten Personal...Popcorn Anyone
Kate's sure got this thing about her image...she desperately wants to be popular. She's the homecoming queen who still hasn't gotten the message that school was out years ago. Surely she felt popular when she did the GOOPs dirty work and being a part of their plans. But sadly, Kate didn't realize that this was still a boy's club and girls had to stay in their place.

So, to show all of us she really is popular...to show everyone...she's gonna win this thing even if she has to buy it (and she obviously thinks that the money will do the trick). Note in that laugh-riot interview she did with Insannity the other night that there wasn't a single issue that she discussed...this was all about Kate and how people were out to get Kate and how Kate was going to show 'em all.

:popcorn:

(now...how do I get a job helping "consult" her campaign...a fool and her money as they say...) :rofl:
