Harris Using Own Money

From the Associated Press:

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. - Rep. Katherine Harris (news, bio, voting record) will fight rather than quit her U.S. Senate campaign, saying she'll spend $10 million she inherited from her father to revive her bid, which has been set back by her ties to a bribery scandal.

Still, some analysts wonder whether the money will be enough to change strong opinions many voters have about Harris, largely based on her role in the 2000 presidential recount, when her decisions as Florida's secretary of state helped elect President Bush.

"I'm staying. I'm in this race. I'm going to win," Harris said Wednesday night on Fox News' "Hannity & Colmes." "I'm going to put everything on the line."

The congresswoman has been under mounting pressure from some Republicans to get out of the race because of concerns that she cannot win and that her role during the recount could motivate Democrats and independents to go to the polls.

This has got to be the best news Dems have had in a long time.
