Katherine Harris will be one of the first people to tell you she tries to keep a sense of humor about the pervading jokes about her makeup.

But that doesn't mean the U.S. Senate candidate from Longboat Key will be taking "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" up on its recent offer to appear on the comedy show. Just a week ago, Stewart was comparing Harris to Ace Frehley of KISS, the rock band known for wearing heavy makeup.

Harris, who said she doesn't even know what "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart" is, said she'll probably pass.

"It is not high on my list of priorities," she said.

Harris said she'll continue to go on national talk shows but will stick with serious programs where real issues will be discussed.

"The Daily Show," on Comedy Central, has become a regular stop for many politicians, both Republican and Democrat. Last year, Sen. John Kerry, Sen. John McCain, former President Bill Clinton and then-Republican National Committee Chairman Ed Gillespie all were interviewed on the show.

1. She knows exactly what it is...

...whether or not she's ever watched it. Her handlers will have told her all she needs to know--it's the show that called bullshit on their Machine.

2. Pshaw! I'd love to see her stick her "running mates" in Jon's face!

I'd love to see her with Stephen Colbert one on one!

LOL....."serious programs where real issues will be discussed".....yeah that's Hannity and Colmes. :eyes:
