If the election was 30 weeks away I would agree with you completely. But it's 30 days away, and Harris is trailing badly in the polls and the national party has written her off. Nobody is raising money for her, she's depending on Matthews and Hardball to get air time. If this is way to early then when do you begin to worry?
But that is not my point...All I am saying is not to give up...We need this seat...Why the party is not backing her is a mystery to me...
Why is the party writing off Connecticut and tacitly supporting one of the Democrats running? Why are they pulling out the stops for Chaffee? Because they know some elections are winnable and some are not. They're written off Connecticut. They're writing off Florida. They're hoping for the best in Rhode Island.
They may be pulling for Chaffee because they know he can win...but thats it... They are pulling for Leiberman because he is now an outcast in the dem party...p That still does not explain why they are not supporting Harris..
Is that lucky dog you?
"It frustrates me no end to see Harris getting little support from the party, while everyone from George Buch to John McCain is campaigning for that scumbag Chaffee."
One is a conservative, one is not.
Harry Truman in 1948.
Bush I in 1988.
Russ Feingold in the 1992 Dim WI Senate primary.
Nothing a Palm Beach plastic surgeon can't fix!
And Harris was there.
The President acknowledged her.
She was invited to attend, she didn't jump up and down like a yap dog begging to attend.
Look, you can believe in MSM polls, self-fulfilling prophecies, Superman Jeb, coulda-woulda-shouldas, etc. but it's all moot now. It's Harris vs. Nelson. The lines are drawn. The contrast between the candidates couldn't be any more sharper. Either you get behind her or you don't. Why is that so hard to grasp?
"Nothing a Palm Beach plastic surgeon can't fix!"
Now that's true. To a point.
I am not she has her base and we want her. So to tought for those who do not agree with our choice in Florida.
Maybe we should ask those who backed Foley, knowing what he was to send the money our way.
Bashing her here only helps the demorats, gain on her more, so your anger is not needed here.
HARRIS FOR U.S. Senate!
And how much of that $2 million is going to the Harris campaign? None. Money is the lifes blood of the campaign, and Harris is running on empty. Like I've said on numerous occasions, as soon as the President or the Governor throw a $2 million fundraiser for Harris, or when the national party spends a million or so on TV and radio for her then I'll believe they're behind her.
All three were down 27 in at least 1 poll 30 days before the election? I think not.
Or is it that they're not supporting Schlesinger because they know he can't win? And isn't that the same reason why they're not paying anything more than lip-service to Harris?
Arf! $:-)
