Katherine Harris WEIGHS OPTIONS re: Bob Ney donation. 'Money's gone!'

[Bluebear]

TAMPA - U.S. Senate candidate Katherine Harris' staff is looking into what to do about campaign donations she received years ago from the political action committee of an Ohio congressman, who last week admitted to federal corruption charges, her campaign spokeswoman said Friday.

Harris, a Sarasota Republican running against Democratic incumbent Bill Nelson, got $6,000 from U.S. Rep. Bob Ney's political action committee, American Liberty PAC, when she ran for Congress in 2002 and 2004.

Last week, Ney, R-Ohio, agreed to plead guilty for improperly accepting trips, meals, sports tickets and casino chips while trying to win favors for disgraced Washington lobbyist Jack Abramoff and a foreign aviation company....


"This is not something she did wrong," Marks said.:eyes: "The key piece here is that the money was (donated) in 2002 and 2004. It was not in this election cycle or in this race." Harris told The Miami Herald on Thursday that she can't return the money or give it to charity because it was spent.
