Ah... there are occasionally good days at the polls...
I'm only sorry that the Democratic candidate won't get to run against Reed.

And have you been reading about the rolling disaster that is the Katherine Harris campaign for the Florida senate? If not, let me see if I can't find a few choice links...

Ah, yes, these are classic:

Harris takes back $100,000 from campaign to renovate home (http://www.bradenton.com/mld/bradenton/news/breaking_news/15042374.htm)

And the latest: the ugly specter of a federal investigation (http://www.orlandosentinel.com/orl-harris1806jul18,0,2719927.story?coll=orl-home-headlines)

Schadenfreude is sweet. :p

I mis-wrote; it's not the Florida senate she is running for, it is Florida's seat in the US Senate. I knew that, I just Bush-whacked the sentence. :p
