The Katherine Harris Comedy Road Show Continues! Woof!

"She has absolutely no chance of winning, seems to be detached from reality these days."

Joe Scarborough (R), former Rep and host of Scarborough Country.

With endorsements like this she has got to be a shoe in.... if this was a Hiaasen novel. For once I agree with Scarborough, that in itself is amazing. Joe also declined the party's desperate invitation to run against the one time Republican golden girl. Who can blame him. He has a nice well payed job at MSNBC, why enter the ring again especially when as recently as
March 10, 2006 he said:

The lack of leadership in Washington, D.C., is sickening. If you look at what Republicans did—promised to do in 1994, when they took control of Congress, and see,000 how they’ve been acting over the past three or four years, the biggest debt and deficit ever. They are irresponsible and reckless on so many levels. I’m embarrassed right now to be a Republican. It’s a disgrace because of the lack of leadership.

I respect him for having the honest to say that, I also respect him for not wanting to give up the platform that allows him to make statements like that.

Back to Harris....

With the wheels having frimly flown off this campaign and leisurly making their way down I-95, Harris seems to be trying to out nut herself.

Her response to the question, said spokesman Adam Goodman, was, ``I haven't worn blue eye shadow since the seventh grade when I was in the Girl Scouts.'' She didn't name a newspaper that showed blue eye shadow.
(Tampa Tribune, 08/3/2005 article here)

Ummm, the Girls Scouts? Oooookay... Forget Hiaasen, this has the makings of a Dorsey plot line.

When a supporter in a Venice veterans hall said he once witnessed Ms. Harris leave her vehicle to escort a turtle across a highway, she became gravely serious.

"All of my life I have stopped for turtles," she said firmly, even defensively, as if someone had challenged her commitment to turtle safety. NYTimes (06/07/06)

Oh but wait there is more. Not only does she love turtles, which might explain this orgasmic shell shakin' interview on Hannity & Colmes. (Video at C&L 08/9/2005).

Sean "Turlte head for Christ" Hannity was practically foaming at the mouth.

But lets not forget her love of dogs and her chronic case of foot in mouth disease!:

She is especially animated when the topic turns to animals, including the guide dog she plans to train starting in November. She will care for the dog for 18 months, spending nearly all her waking hours with it. "You can't let them sleep in bed with you," Ms. Harris said. "Which is going to be harder on me than the dog."

As Ms. Harris hugged and hand-shaked her way toward the hall exit, the song "Y.M.C.A." came on. The mostly empty dance floor filled with aging veterans and their wives, one of whom spotted Ms. Harris and summoned her. She obliged. And then commenced another unforgettable moment, Katherine Harris, arms over her head, dancing to "Y.M.C.A."

Oblivious to the irony suggested by his statement I present Florida state Representative. David Rivera:

“Katherine Harris is the horse we’re going to ride to the finish line and it’s time for us to saddle up”

WELL YEEEEEEHAAAAA!
