Rasmussin: Nelson 57% Harris 27%

[Rose Siding]

April 14, 2006--The Florida Senate seat held by Bill Nelson (D) was once seen as a pick-up opportunity for the GOP. Now, however, the imploding campaign of Katherine Harris has Nelson counting down the days until May 12. That's the deadline for some other candidate to file and challenge Harris in the Republican Primary.

If Harris ends up as the Republican nominee, Nelson will be one of the nation's safest incumbents. The latest Rasmussen Reports election poll of Florida voters shows Nelson leading Harris by 30 percentage points, 57% to 27%. A month ago, Nelson led by 21 points.

Numbers like these have even caused the state's top-ranked Republican, Governor Jeb Bush, to express concern over the state of the Harris campaign. Over the past month, every senior member of the Harris campaign resigned.

Just 45% of Republicans would now vote for Harris over Nelson. Thirty-three percent (33%) would vote for the Democrat.

4. I wonder, if she needs money, if there's an aftermarket for

silicone.

5. This race is OVER

Harris has completely fucked her self.

8. Ah hem. I disagree. We are at greater risk than ever.

First, she will withdraw.
Second, Jebbediah Bush will replace her.
Third, they will fuck with the ballots (they've had 3 time to get it right) until he wins.

Forget their election laws. They don't apply to the GOP, not when they really want something. They either take it or steal it.

[NJ Democrats]

9. JEB would't go to the Senate

It won't do anything for him. He's waiting for the VP nom in 08 so he can run for Prez in 2012 or 2016.

10. very good point. very good, indeed.

When will such greedy planning from bushistas and others finally become visible to the rest of America, though? If he had no other choice, he just might hide in the senate for a bit.

7. 27% seems awful high for Cruella.

Lot of fundies and nuts down there evidently.
