KATHERINE HARRIS LOOKS LIKE A LOSER-- EVEN TO REPUBLICANS

>

With Bush's approval rating in Florida slipping this week to their lowest levels ever, local Republicans are starting to worry that Katherine Harris will drag down the whole party's electoral chances in 2006. She seems unstoppable in the GOP primary-- and a sure loser up against Nelson, who once looked vulnerable. The new Quinnipiac Poll out today shows Nelson widening his lead over Harris substantially. If the election were held today he would swamp her 57% to 33%. According to the poll director, Clay Richards, "It's easy to see why Republicans in the White House and in the State House are skeptical about running U.S. Rep. Katherine Harris as their candidate for Senate next year. Many Florida voters say she is divisive and too partisan and even Republicans say 41% to 38% that Nelson will win re-election if Harris is their candidate."
