I searched my soul for some tiny piece of it that retained the capability to feel sorry for her, and still nothing.

I stole that title from a friend's email.

Watching Katherine Harris, who helped engineer the debacle in Florida which has caused such ruinous harm to our world, suffer a public and catastrophic defeat, is truly the most beautiful example of Schadenfreude we have seen in a very long time.

From Salon.com (Site Pass required):

The event was called "Soaring for the Senate," and the idea was to show off some of the high-profile endorsements Katherine Harris has received. The problem? As the Orlando Sentinel reports, not one of the nine endorsing officials listed on Harris' event flier showed up for Thursday's event, and one of them said that he actually supports somebody else in the race.

Harris sounds hurt about that last one. "They called back twice and said he'd be here," she tells the Sentinel. "He said he was going to be here on the stage with me today."
