No bias here.

I don't think she's running to gain the approval of the Associated Press.

Harris is running very poorly considering how high her name recognition is. I think the perfect storm of voters fearing one party hegemony, Bush's low approval rating and polarization will keep Bill Nelson in office if she wins the primary.

I remember that photo of her on the horse at some fair. Nothing wrong with her image there. Lucky horse!

I've met Katherine Harris. She was nothing like portrayed her.

She was soft spoken, intellgent, and just plain "nice" She posed for us while holding a squirmy baby.

We came to visit her with a bunch of homeschoolers, and she took time to see us and spent time telling the kids the meaing of the great seal of FL.

She wore a very simple Navy bluse dress and was not overly made up. I was impressed with her.

All of these articles about her are horsesh*t.

and many non-Republican voters see her as a flirty, vacant, beauty-queen wannabe

Well dog my cats, non Republicans not liking a Republican. Now thats real AP style news.

The more articles like this that I see, the more I like her.

The MSM created this image of her as an over-made beauty-queen type, and they're trying to perpetuate it. If anyone needs an image make-over, it's the MSM.

"Image" is 99% of being a politician. That's a major problem with this country. That's why the Clinton's are always polishing their "images."

"I couldn't tell you one thing Katherine Harris has done in office or stands for or would do in the Senate."

McLaughlin forgets she helped "unhorse" the freaking leftist FLA supreme court in 2000.

A photogenic appearance is not a hindrance at the ballot box (people's exhibit one JFK). But it probably is to a antique media reporter who can't find any other material with which to castigate an opponent.

Who cares what she looks like? What are her stands on the issues? That's what will make her a winner.

Anyone know her age?

Not that it matters, just curious.

Born April 5, 1957, according to one web site. Not great at math, but I guess that makes her 48.
