First they laugh at you

People who are upset by the New York Times' focus on the marital situation of Hillary and Bill Clinton should be grateful that the Clintons aren't getting the treatment the Times is giving to GOP Representative and doomed Senate candidate Katherine Harris. Oy, vey:

When a supporter in a Venice veterans hall said he once witnessed Ms. Harris leave her vehicle to escort a turtle across a highway, she became gravely serious.

"All of my life I have stopped for turtles," she said firmly, even defensively, as if someone had challenged her commitment to turtle safety.

When the Times uses you as a punch line, your national stature is nonexistent. Thank God Harris is soldiering on! The Dems need that Senate seat very badly.
