IT'S PROBABLY NO SURPRISE, BUT...

I was checking out some of the newsie sites, and Jeremy Wallace in the Sarasota Herald-Tribune's Political Insider blog made mention that Congresswoman Katherine Harris (R - Sarasota) was the featured speaker for the Christian Coalition of Florida's Faith and Family Breakfast Saturday. He also found that Harris was one of several Florida congressional Republicans who earned a 100 percent rating from the Christian Coalition's national office (pdf file: Adobe Acrobat required to view). Among the others from Central Florida: Michael Bilirakis (R - Tarpon Springs), Ginny Brown-Waite (R - Crystal River), John L. Mica (R - Maitland), Harris' own relative Adam Putnam (R - Bartow), and Dave Weldon (R - Indialantic).

Needless to say, no Democrat received higher than a 50% ranking. That, of course, is not to say that Democrats are somehow not Christian or heatherns. We simply disagree with the right wing on some issues.
