She spoke of using her late father's $10 million to overcome a 18-point deficit in the polls. Even her most ardent detractors would hope she would use some of the money for counseling, as I would not even care to, at this point in her life, hope she would get my order right at a fast food window and wrestle with the overwhelming task of making change for my ten dollar bill, let alone buy a Senate seat. Katherine Harris seems psychiatrically or psychologically impaired. These are, unfortunately, prerequisites for American politics, so she may buy her way to victory yet.

On March 1, the Sarasota Herald Tribune reported that former Harris scheduler Mona Tate Yost left her staff in April 2005 to take a job with MZM. Just three days later on March 4, the Washington Post reported that Harris in 2005 requested $10 million in funding for a Navy intelligence program in her district at the urging of MZM's Mitchell Wade. It was the very same Mitchell Wade who directed the illegal campaign funds to Harris in 2004 For the details, see: <b><a href="http://www.perrspectives.com/blog/archives/000333.htm" rel="nofollow">"The Decline and Coming Fall of Katherine Harris."</a></b> Now comes the latest chapter in the decline and fall of Katherine Harris.

He actually had a Menu which showed ala carte prices for different kinds of bribes! You gotta love such effrontery. Combined, of course, with such incredible stupidity. Do these people really think that they are entitled to go to Washington to pillage and plunder? That they are above the law? Brian Ross of ABC News reported on February 27, 2006: “The sentencing memorandum includes the California Republican's "bribery menu" on one of his congressional note cards, "starkly framed" under the seal of the United States Congress. The card shows an escalating scale for bribes, starting at $140,000 and a luxury yacht for a $16 million Defense Department contract. Each additional $1 million in contract value required a $50,000 bribe. The rate dropped to $25,000 per additional million once the contract went above $20 million.” Can’t wait for more Entitled Politicians to get their dues!

How on earth would anyone ever say Bush came even close in a debate with Gore? It is because Gore "looked" stiff. Gore is obviously more intelligent but folks just can't/won't vote blindly. Hell, I think one of Bork's biggest distractions was his unattractive appearance. Babies don't even like harsh looking women. It is a fact, unfortunate, maybe, but a fact all the same. And on that note, Harris is just physically unlikable and that will translate. However juvenile and undeserved, appearance has quite a large role in politics – like it or not.
