Top aides to Rep. Katherine Harris’ (R-FL) Senate campaign are heading for the exit, the Hotline On Call reports.

“The departing staff includes Glen Hodas, Harris’s campaign manager, her spokesperson, Chris Ingram, and Pat Thomas, her field director. The status of Harris’s chief fundraiser, Erin Delullo, is not clear,” the blog says.

Harris is trailing her Democratic challenger by 33 points, according to a recent Quinnipiac University poll.

If you recall, in April Harris lost “her chief political strategist, her campaign manager, her spokeswoman, her director of field operations and even a traveling aide who helps hand out stickers at campaign appearances,” as the Orlando Sentinel reported the first exodus.

After the first wave of defections, Harris instituted a “loyalty oath” policy — yeah, didn’t really stick. Can’t wait to find out what she’ll try next. Suggestions?
