Do you honestly believe that the result of that primary showed her to be a strong candidate? She had 100% name ID against no-names with no money. She couldn't even get a majority of the vote.

It's her fault that she didn't have better competition?

Jeb, Franks, Bense....where were these guys?

Whatever. She got 50% of the primary vote. That's all that matters. I support Harris and hopes she wins. If she doesn't, hey, she has an impressive background and can easily get a job in the private sector.

Well, I appreciate your zeal. The point is that
A) her name recognition scared all good candidates away in the primary
B) The Republican party at the state and national level told her she would get killed, as the polls are now indicating
C) She obviously cares more about selfish desires than to see a conservative Republican as Florida Senator.

Her selfishness could be the difference between Harry Reid being the Majority leader or the Minority leader. None of the above is arguable. What good is support when nothing the candidate believes matters because she has absolutely no chance of winning and fighting to institute those beliefs.

You keep making this about loyalty and yet you ignore the egregious abrogation of loyalty committed by the candidate in the first place.
