Katherine Harris Campaign Loses Core Staff

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) -- Katherine Harris' U.S. Senate campaign lost what was left of its core team when a top adviser, campaign manager and communications director resigned this weekend.

Harris, a Republican congresswoman challenging incumbent Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson, said Saturday she would introduce new members of her campaign early in the week.

"We are stronger as a campaign today than we were yesterday," Harris said in a press release.

Harris said her campaign has lined up people who believe in her candidacy, are committed, and support the "values of mainstream Florida citizens."

Former campaign manager Jim Dornan, who resigned in November, said, "She had the best people in the country. She can't get any better than that.

"This is a campaign that is spiraling downward by the minute," he said, adding she should drop out of the race.

Among those resigning over the weekend were Ed Rollins, a political adviser to President Reagan; campaign manager Jamie Miller; press secretary Morgan Dobbs; and other key staff.

Phone messages left for Rollins and Dobbs were not immediately returned, while contact information was not found for Miller. Harris didn't immediately return a call Saturday for additional comment.

Her campaign has struggled since announcing plans to challenge Nelson last summer.

3. I hope Rollins writes another book.

In "Bare Knuckles and Backrooms" he did a job on Michael and Arianna Huffington. Just think what he can do with Harris.

6. She is humiliating herself so much that it's almost painful to watch.

But I keep watching because, for someone who played such a pivotal role in hijacking this country, no amount of humiliation could ever be too much.

11. Katherine, dear, please stay in the race. I'm begging you.

I hope you or whatever staffers you may have left will find my small internet plea.

Please know that a great many Democrats like me want you to continue your quest at all costs. You could build a great coalition in the Democratic Party and balance your karma a bit by staying in the race. Sweetie, trust me, you have my complete support. ;)

Just call me a liberal progressive left-wing socialist tree-huggin' Constitution-lovin' supporter of your campaign. Take it ALL THE WAY!

Sincerely,

Your greatest Democrat fan (next to Allan Colmes),

Steve



ps - I really think this works for you. Keep it up!!! You're getting HUGH!!!
