The Katherine Harris Ego Campaign

Raw Story is running with the anti-Katherine Harris website Make Her Spend It All. The site accepts donations for Bill Nelson. All Harris's candidacy is doing is rallying the Democratic base and keeping conservatives at home on election day. If the GOP fought as openly as the Democrats, you would hear Republicans complaining about Harris selfishly putting her own interest above the party's.

Now Harris has made her bizarre pledge to sell all her assets. Harris is using the term widow's mite to explain her actions.

41. Jesus sat down opposite the place where the offerings were put and watched the crowd putting their money into the temple treasury. Many rich people threw in large amounts.

42. But a poor widow came and put in two very small copper coins,[j]worth only a fraction of a penny.[k]

43. Calling his disciples to him, Jesus said, "I tell you the truth, this poor widow has put more into the treasury than all the others.

44.They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on."

Harris is certainly not giving to her own campaign out of poverty. This will sell to Christian fundamentalists. But everyone else will see her words as pandering.
