WASHINGTON Republican Rep. Katherine Harris of Florida pledged Wednesday to continue her campaign to unseat Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson, a decision that capped weeks of speculation she might bow out of the high-profile race.The former Florida secretary of state who became a GOP hero in 2000 by certifying the stateÂ’s presidential election results for George W. Bush is trailing Nelson in the polls and is far behind in raising funds for her struggling campaign.Appearing Wednesday night on Fox News Hannity & Colmes program, Harris said she will personally commit $10 million to the campaign, money she said was left to her by her late father.George Harris died of a heart attack Jan. 13."I'm in this race and I'm in it to win," Harris said..........
...Harris appeared to be choking back tears as she discussed spending her father's money on the coming race as a tribute to his legacy."When I lost him I said I would win this for my father," she said.............
hey hon, was daddy a masochistst? good thing he's passed because i certainly cannot imagine he'd be 'honored' you pissed 10 MILLION of his dollars down the toilet
