Harris Campaign: Last One Out Hit the LightsIf campaign aides were hair, Rep. Katherine Harris (R-FL) would be bald, the Orlando Sentinel reports this morning:
Harris, who is running against Democratic Sen. Bill Nelson, is likely to lose 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.
Even the guy who hands out the stickers.
In a preposterous attempt to stem the defections, the Recount Queen apparently is stealing a page from the playbook of. . . a third-rate Eastern European dictator? She’s requiring the few staffers staying behind to swear a loyalty oath to her campaign:
[S]ources said Harris met with staffers earlier in the day. . . Campaign workers could stay, she said, but they would have to recommit themselves to the Senate race. She gave them until 5 p.m. Sunday to decide.
Yeah, that’ll work.
