26. She's been great in everything she's done
meaning completely believable as whatever character she's played.

I'd like to see more of her, but Hollywood is still stuck on car crashes and laser cannons.

2. That woman is an amazing actress!
I thought it was old Kathy herself!

Who gets to play Jebby in the hot sex scenes?

5. Not enough make-up. And it's a movie set. Ready for my close up, Mr. DeMille.

Rita: I'd like to make her look a little more attractive, how far can you pull back?
Cameraman: How do you feel about Cleveland?
Rita: Knock it off.

7. Spitting image of Katherine Harris!
Long, slender nose; clippy-cloppy feet and perky, furry ears.

The blue, satin personalized skirt she's wearing is yummy, too!

Uncanny!

The same ending - SCOTUS hands the presidency to Shrub.

Oh, and Laura needs to practice that Katherine scowl - lots!

16. Why does Katherine Harris wear her jeans up to her ribcage?
High-waisted pants look good on no one.

17. If this is in 2000, why does the sign say "Congresswoman"?
I didn't think she was elected to congress until a couple years later. In 2000 she was the Sec of State who gave bush the presidency.

Must say Dern brings a couple good points to the role.

35. Hollywood puts a spin on 2000 recount
<snip>

"Seven years after the election drama that put George W. Bush in the White House, HBO is shooting the movie Recount in the town where the behind-the-scenes decisions were made and where the decision-makers are expecting as much Hollywood spin as political fact from it all.

"They won't be able to resist overdoing it because of Katherine Harris and because the way it usually happens is not the way it usually looks in the movies," said J.M. ''Mac'' Stipanovich, a top advisor to the former secretary of state during the recount.

A good example of the Hollywood-ization: Actress Laura Dern, playing Harris, appeared in pancake makeup and what appeared to be an over-stuffed bra while riding a horse, in a replay of Harris' famed rodeo appearance when she ran for Congress -- two years after the recount."

40. Maybe they end the picture with a 'where are they now' bit, ala Animal House...
"Katherine Harris was elected to Congress then ran for Senate and was fragged by her own party."

18. Joseph Stalin: “It is enough that the people know there was an election. The people
who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything."

24. I hope
Katherine falls off the horse in the end of the movie. But not before the scene where she tearfully streaks great gobs of makeup all over the tarmac as she clutches onto George and Jeb's ankles begging for just one more for old times sake as they drag her behind them doing their best to ignore her. Her last scene should be of her lying there with her mouth looking like a huge grimacing black hole while she howls of "Noooooo!"

29. Additional scenes where she's getting frisky while sitting with another critter in Congress, or
being interviewed by a young reporter. At least, you have to say it was entertaining.

36. There's just so much to work with
When it comes to Cruella Devil AKA Katherine Harris. There's the scene where she poses her thrusting boobies in semi-profile for best effect for Sean Hannity when he interviewed her. It's a wonder her blouse buttons don't pop off and take people's eyes out.

39. The "girls" could be a little larger, if you get my drift, but other
than that she looks very much like Cruella.
