It’s election season. That means we get tons of news about things done and said by people seeking office. This year, we get the ever entertaining Katherine Harris running for Senate. She’s on the Republican ticket, but the Republicans in power don’t seem to want her. Considering some of the things she does and says, no wonder. Consider this piece on the Orlando Sentinel’s political blog.
It’s so awful that you almost have to laugh. Does this idiot realize that she’s just insulted millions of voters by declaring that anyone who is not Christian is evil?
Separating religion and politics is “so wrong because God is the one who chooses our rulers,” Harris said.
Oh, well then feel free to insult the voters. They don’t matter. Just believe in God and He will elect you to the U.S. Senate. Wow. That’s a strategy I’ve never heard before. Good luck with that, Katherine.
I’m not picking on Katherine Harris because I’m anti-Republican. Far from it, I’m a registered Republican. No, I’m picking on Katherine Harris because she’s just flipped out.
The part that’s really scary is…she’s not in last place. Consider these results from a Hispanic Chamber of Orlando straw poll:
U.S. Senate: Will McBride, 125; Bill Nelson, 70; Katherine Harris, 37; LeRoy Collins Jr., 18; Peter Monroe, 5.
Of course, it just keeps getting worse. Now she has her own entry in the Urban Dictionary.
Katherine Harris is by no means the only loony candidate this season. She’s just the most promising one for our entertainment purposes this season. What truly frightens and tittilates me at the same time is the notion that she could represent me in the U.S. Senate.
