With the Republicans unable to muster another serious candidate, Katherine Harris is going to be their Senate nominee in Florida, and I'm feeling so giddy about it. It's not just that she's down by 30 points against an otherwise-vulnerable incumbent, or that she's doing her part to keep the culture-of-corruption meme alive with her apparent bribes from Mitchell Wade, or that she's opened up a winnable House race for Democrats, or that her presence on the ticket will energize the Democratic base across the state.
I also have months of delicious naughty Katherine Harris follies to look forward to. Remember her tipsy, boobalicious appearance on Girls Gone Wild: Florida Hannity and Colmes? And the time that she was getting snuggly with Rick Renzi on C-SPAN in the background of Rob Simmons' speech? And best of all, the time she started coming on to that college reporter? (Take a look at the pictures!) However I felt in 2000, I can't hate a silly drunk girl who hits on random guys. My anger has melted away into a sort of amused, patronizing contempt, which is much more fun.
